The Joint Institute for Nuclear Astrophysics (JINA)
will organize a 2-day Workshop focused on Nuclear Incompressibility
and the Nuclear Equation of State, to be held at the University
of Notre Dame during July 14-15, 2005.
This meeting follows a similar Workshop held at Notre
Dame in January 2001, and the Symposium
on Nuclear Equation of State used in Astrophysics Models,
held at the ACS meeting in Philadelphia last Summer.
The primary aim of the Workshop is to bring together
interested physicists from the areas of Astrophysics, Giant Resonances,
and Heavy-Ion Reactions, to discuss current status of experiments
and theoretical models related to nuclear incompressibility and the
equation of state, and to explore what experiments might be needed
to clarify some of the outstanding issues.
Most of the Workshop will be devoted to talks, with
a lot of time allowed for discussions and interactions. In that spirit,
we will follow a somewhat flexible schedule for the talks.
There is no registration fee but participants are
requested to register via the
webpage (archive.jinaweb.org),
so that we can make appropriate arrangements.
