          The NSF program "Cyber-enabled Discovery and Innovation" offers funding opportunities for innovations in computational nuclear theory, particularly in collaboration with scientists from other disciplines.

 

PHYSICS NEWS:



Nuclear Interactions at Ultra-high Energy in Light of Recent Results from Auger
 (INT workshop Feb 20-22, 2008)

Reported by Larry McLerran
May 12, 2008

The Auger cosmic ray experiment is designed to measure the properties of the highest energy cosmic rays, up to 1021 eV, corresponding to a center of mass energy of 103 TeV. This is two orders of magnitude higher than the energy of pp collisions which will soon be measured in the CERN LHC experiments. Read more...

The Flip Side of Femtoscopy
(A personal perspective)

Reported by Rick Casten
February 29, 2008

By far, the most common approaches today to understanding the structure of atomic nuclei are femtoscopic, by which is meant approaches focused at the nucleonic level, whether these be ab initio calculations, no-core shell model methods, large-basis shell model calculations, perhaps using Monte Carlo techniques, density functional theory (DFT) methods, or similar approaches.
