We are pleased to announce that the SNP School 2016 will take place on the campus of Tohoku University, Sendai from November 18rd to 20th, 2016. This school is the fifth school of a series of SNP schools 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. This year, the school is organized as the pre-conference event of the International Symposium on Neutron Star Matter (NSMAT2016) and The 8th Asian Nuclear Physics Association Symposium (ANPhA2016) to be held at Tohoku University from November 21th through 25th. We encourage young scientists who intend to participate in NSMAT2016 and ANPhA2016 to join also the SNP School 2016 and to present their research at the young researchers’ session.

 

Graduate School of Science, Tohoku University, ELPH of Tohoku Univ., RCNP of Osaka Univ., Graduate Program on Physics for the Universe of Tohoku University host the SNP School in close cooperation among Nishina Center of RIKEN, ANPhA,  J-PARC center of JAEA/KEK and grant-in-aid for scientific research on innovative areas “Nuclear matter in neutron stars investigated by experiments and astronomical observations.”

 

The school will have a series of lectures and topical talks on the strangeness nuclear physics as well as the hadron physics in general which should play central roles in the 21st century nuclear physics research at accelerator facilities including hadron machines such as J-PARC (Japan), FAIR project at GSI (Germany), RHIC at BNL (USA), electron machines as CEBAF at Jefferson Lab (USA), MAMI-C at Mainz Univ. (Germany) and ELPH at Tohoku Univ. (Japan) etc. in the world. Lectures by leading physicists will overview the related subjects both from experiment and from theory. Topical talks on recent progress and future prospects of the fields, and presentations by the participants will be also arranged. One can see the program and other information of the previous SNP School 2015 at http://lambda.phys.tohoku.ac.jp/snpsc2015/.

 

It is our intention to establish a new tradition of the school and develop it as an opportunity to foster active young physicists in wide fields of nuclear and related physics to be pursued around J-PARC in the future. Therefore the participants of the school are assumed to be graduate students and young scientists who have strong motivation to carry out the future nuclear physics research. Together with lecturers who are leaders in these fields, senior participants are also welcome to vitalize the school.

Lectures

 

Y-G. Ma (SINAP)

"Strangeness Physics at RHIC"

D.T. Khoa (INST, Ha Noi)

“Neutron-proton asymmetry and EOS of neutron star matter”

J.-K. Ahn (Korea U.)

"H-dibaryon and related topics"

D. Lonardoni (NSCL-MSU and LANL)

“Quantum Monte Carlo for Strangeness Nuclear Physics”

T. Suda (ELPH-Tohoku)

“Precision determination of proton charge radius by elastic electron scattering

 in ultra-low Q2 region at ELPH, Tohoku University”

 

The school will be held at the Aoba Science Hall in the Aobayama campus of Tohoku University (Sendai, Miyagi pref.). The city of Sendai with a population of one million is the center of the northern part of Japan, “Tohoku District”. It is located about 350 km north of Tokyo and can be accessed in 1 hour and 45 minutes by the super-express train (Tohoku Shinkansen). We are planning to visit an electron accelerator facility at ELPH-Tohoku with a lecture as a part of the SNP School 2016.

 

The school will welcome a maximum of approximately 50 graduate students and young scientists from all over the world both in experiments and in theory. Though budget is quite limited but participants have a chance to have financial support for their local expenses during the school. Deadline of application is the 20th September, 2016. In addition, the organizers strongly advise the persons who need a visa to enter Japan, to contact the organizer as soon as possible, since the issuance of a visa may take a long time.

 

 

Young Researchers’ Session

 

There are two kinds of presentation style.

1)15min. oral presentation + poster: Discussion time is included in 15 min.


2) 5 min. oral presentation + poster: No discussion time for the oral presentation. Discussion will be done during poster session.

Please prepare your poster presentation in A0 size (W 84.1cm×H 118.9cm).

We will select best oral and poster presentations. We will honor them
by awarding Hashimoto prize at the concluding session on 20th.
