Stellar & Nuclear Astro: SDSS-V meets IReNA Workshop (Opens in a new window)

KU Leuven, Belgium

Workshops & Conferences

This particular meeting is a twin SDSS-V/IReNA meeting whose goal is to bring researchers from two collaborations together. IReNA stands for International Research Network for Nuclear Astrophysics (https://www.irenaweb.org) and is a US-driven network that connects international nuclear astrophysics networks.

i-process Nucleosynthesis Workshop & School (Opens in a new window)

Limassol, Cyprus

Workshops & Conferences

We are happy to announce the continuation of the successful series of workshops related to the “intermediate” or i-process nucleosynthesis. 

The workshop will take place at the Poseidonia Beach Hotel in Limassol, Cyprus during the period May 16-19, 2023. A mini school will be organized right before the main workshop ( May 15-16, 2023) for junior scientists who would benefit from an introduction and hands-on activities on i-process nucleosynthesis.

2nd Frontiers in Nuclear Astrophysics Summer School (Opens in a new window)

East Lansing, MI, USA

Workshops & Conferences

The Frontiers Summer School in Nuclear Astrophysics aims to develop the cross-field knowledge of senior undergraduate and graduate students, and young researchers in the interdisciplinary field of nuclear astrophysics, via the exploration of various astrophysical and nuclear physics topics, ranging from stellar evolution and nucleosynthesis to novel experimental approaches and theoretical advances.

Nuclear Astrophysics with Chemical Abundances from Non-LTE Radiative Transfer Workshop (Opens in a new window)

Chicago, IL, USA

Workshops & Conferences

Stellar spectra encode a large amount of physical information, such as a star's mass, temperature, radius, age, distance, velocity field, and detailed elemental composition. Stellar spectroscopy is used not just to study the properties of stars, but also to learn about the history of our Milky Way galaxy, the origin of elements and cosmic nucleosynthesis, the nature of dark matter, and the properties of extrasolar planets. The most common stellar atmosphere models assume Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium (LTE).

IReNA/CeNAM Workshop on Atomic and Nuclear Quantum Effects Near Threshold (Opens in a new window)

Edinburgh, Scotland

Workshops & Conferences

The workshop on Atomic and Nuclear Quantum Effects Near Threshold will provide the opportunity to discuss quantum effects that affect the cross section of nuclear reactions in low energy accelerator studies and hot plasma environments. The theoretical treatment of atomic and nuclear quantum effects will be discussed and the impact on experimental data will be evaluated to arrive at a generalized approach that combines information on low energy cross sections and reaction rates from accelerator and plasma studies with data from studies of near threshold nuclear structure.

2023 R-matrix Workshop on Methods and Applications (Opens in a new window)

Athens, OH, USA

Workshops & Conferences

The workshop’s goal is to bring together researchers in both experiment and theory and from basic and applied fields, who utilize R-matrix techniques in their research. The workshop aims to address the latest developments in R-matrix theory, its application in interpreting experimental data, and its use in data evaluation.

The 17th international symposium on Nuclei in the Cosmos (Opens in a new window)

Daejeon, South Korea

Workshops & Conferences

Nuclei in the Cosmos (NIC) is the most important international meeting in the field of nuclear astrophysics. It brings together nuclear experimentalists, nuclear theorists, astronomers, theoretical astrophysicists, cosmo-chemists, and others interested in the scientific questions at the interface of nuclear physics and astrophysics. These questions concern, for example, the origin of the elements in the cosmos and the nuclear reactions that occur in the Big Bang, in stars, and in stellar explosions.
