Invited speaker
Nuclear astrophysics aims to understand the cosmic origin of the chemical elements and the energy generation in stars. It constitutes a truly multidisciplinary arena that involves researchers in theoretical astrophysics, observational astronomy, cosmochemistry and nuclear physics.
New tools, developments and achievements have revolutionized our understanding of the origin of the elements:...

Techinical issues
Invited speaker
Active targets are very versatile instruments. On some aspects, like the luminosity of a reaction measurement, they have a clear advantage over more traditional setups. In other areas, sometimes a compromise has to be chosen in order to obtain usable information on various parameters such as energy, channel and particle identification.
The use of auxiliary detectors and techniques can help...

Physics and Experiments
Invited speaker
The isotopes within the limiting lines of bound nuclei (or drip-lines) are goals of exploration for as many elements as possible. However the drip-line is not the end of the nuclear existence, and nuclei beyond the proton and neutron drip-lines may live much longer than the characteristic time of an orbital motion of nucleons in nuclei. These nuclei called resonances have lifetimes determined...
