First INTRANS Workshop

22 Jan 2024, 01:30 → 25 Jan 2024, 13:00 Europe/Paris

200/0-Auditorium - Auditorium P. Lehmann (IJCLab)

The INTRANS (Instrumentation and Training for Nuclear Spectroscopy and Reaction Dynamics) Service Improvement subtask of the EURO-LABS Horizon EU program, promotes the coordination between the research infrastructures and research groups involved in nuclear spectroscopy and reaction studies, to optimize the use of valuable resources and to enhance synergies among researchers on a broad European scale for frontline research.

In the spirit of the NUSPIN workshops, held under the auspices of the European integrated activity ENSAR2, the aim of the INTRANS 2024 Workshop is to present the status of nuclear research using gamma-ray detectors in Europe and to discuss its perspectives. Sessions will be dedicated to the presentation of the latest results obtained at international gamma-ray facilities, of recent theoretical studies and to the discussion on the challenges of future research, experimental campaigns and technical developments.

Review talks will be followed by shorter contributions on physics highlights selected from submitted abstracts. Young researchers are strongly encouraged to submit abstracts.
