Nuclear structure physics across the energy spectrum 2025

12 May 2025, 08:00 → 22 May 2025, 17:00 Asia/Shanghai

X1-5-B5009 - HIRG conference room (Jiangwan Campus, Fudan University)

Introduction: The purpose of this one-week program and three-day workshop is to gather together experts from high-energy and low-energy nuclear physics communities to report on the latest experimental and theoretical advances at the intersection of these fields. Discussions will focus on the interplay between low-energy nuclear experiments, modern nuclear structure theory, and the current understanding of initial conditions in high-energy nuclear collisions. This program is to provide a channel for deepening investigating of  nuclear structure that enables us to enhance our understanding of the initial conditions in high-energy collisions and addresses the important issue of nuclear structure evolution across energy scales. With the aim of deepening our understanding of key questions at the two ends of the energy spectrum, emphasis will be given to future research directions driven by planned ion programs at the Large Hadron Collider and other facilities worldwide.

The program, running from May 12-18, 2025, will feature daily one-hour seminars by invited speakers, followed by in-depth discussions. The subsequent workshop from May 20-22, 2025 will span three days, featuring 25-30 invited talks and a few focused discussion sessions.

 

The scientific program includes the following topics, which emphasize the intersections between nuclear structure and high-energy collisions. 

• Nuclear shape and initial conditions in nuclear collisions

• Nuclear shapes in ab initio approaches

• Bayesian analysis and emulators for nuclear physics

• Precision studies of nuclear shapes and BSM searches

• Future experimental upgrades and facilities

Program:   10:00-11:00 am, 2:30-3:30 pm, May 12-18, 2025

Workshop: 9:00-12:00 am, 2:00-5:00 pm, May 20-22, 2025
