The symposium will address experimental and theoretical investigations of the equation of state of asymmetric nuclear matter. Such investigations include efforts in nuclear structure, nuclear reactions and heavy-ion collisions, as well as in astrophysical observations of compact stars and associated phenomena (neutron stars and core collapse supernovae, among others). Significant implications of gravitational wave signals, soft X-rays, astro-particle physics and neutrino observations will be discussed.

The event is organized and supported by the Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN), Sezione di Catania and Laboratori Nazionali del Sud, and by the Physics and Astronomy Department "E. Majorana" of the University of Catania.

Students and postdocs are especially encouraged to participate and contribute to the scientific sessions of the symposium.

Regsitration, with the possibility of submitting abstracts for oral or poster presentations, is already open and will close on June 30, 2022

The Seminar offers lectures to Ph.D. students, medical physicists and young researchers working at Universities or Research Institutes.

The Focus Area 1 (FA1) of the International Research Network for Nuclear Astrophysics (IReNA) is concerned with the determination of nuclear reaction rates of critical astrophysical importance in the laboratory using a broad range of experimental approaches. 

FA1 is organizing the first topical meeting jointly between IReNA and the European network activity ChETEC-INFRA. It will take place April 5-8, 2022 at the Rome Global Gateway of the University of Notre Dame located in the center of Rome, IT.

The intention of this topical workshop is to collect information, discover possible synergies and synchronize future activities at different underground laboratories in Europe and the United States.

From 25 July till 12 August 2022, the second issue of the TALENT Course 3 on "Effective Field Theories in Light Nuclei: from Structure to Reactions" will be held at the Mainz Institute for Theoretical Physics (MITP) on the campus of the Johannes Gutenberg Universität Mainz, Germany; https://indico.mitp.uni-mainz.de/event/279/

The TALENT initiative, Training in Advanced Low Energy Nuclear Theory, aims to provide an advanced and comprehensive training to graduate students and young researchers in all aspects of low-energy nuclear theory. General information on TALENT and past courses can be found at https://fribtheoryalliance.org/TALENT/

The goal of this TALENT summer school is to provide the attendees with a high level training on effective field theories for nuclear physics and on the numerical methods to solve the few-body problem for light nuclei for both structure and reaction purposes.
