The 7th international workshop on Compound-Nuclear Reactions and Related Topics will be held from 8 to 12 July 2024 at the International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, Austria.
Following in the footsteps of previous workshops held in Yosemite National Park (2007), Bordeaux (2009), Prague (2011), Sao Paolo (2013), Tokyo (2015) and Berkeley (2018), the meeting will bring together scientists from the fields of nuclear theory, experiment, nuclear astrophysics, data evaluation, and other applications. The primary goal is to provide a forum for reviewing the status of experimental and theoretical efforts in compound-nuclear reactions and related areas, discussing recent developments, and exploring how these improvements can be integrated into practical applications.
The meeting will comprise a series of invited overview talks, oral contributions, and poster presentations, with emphasis on stimulating interactions and discussions among the participants.
Topics to be covered:
- Nuclear reaction mechanisms (direct, compound, pre-equilibrium, other)
- Nuclear fission
- Statistical Hauser-Feshbach theory
- Surrogate methods
- Optical model
- Level densities and photon strength functions
- R-matrix theory
- Nuclear structure for nuclear reactions
- Measurements relevant to compound-nuclear reactions (direct and indirect)
- Nuclear data evaluation and dissemination (including Machine Learning, Statistics, Bayesian Inference)
- Applications in nuclear astrophysics, energy, waste management, nonproliferation, medical physics, etc.
- Experimental facilities
