CARINA-JINA
Collaboration on Nuclear Data Compilations for Nucleosythesis
Modelling
The goal of the collaboration between CARINA
and JINA is to develop an updated and unified nuclear reaction
data base for modeling a wide variety of stellar nucleosynthesis
scenarios. The first collaboration meeting willl be held at
ECT*
in Spring 2007. The purpose of this meeting is top develop
strategies and techniques to update and eventually merge the
presently most important data libraries for astrophysics (KADoNiS,
NACRE, REACLIB). More
"Seeing
Stars" -- An article that summarizes the JINA co-sponsored
INT meeting on the first stars got published in Nature Physics.

JINA postdoc Daniel Galaviz
won the best poster award at the 2006
COMEX-2 international conference in Sankt Goar, Germany.
The poster reported preliminary results from a JINA experiment
led by Daniel Galaviz, which was performed at the National
Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory at Michigan State University.

The National Research Council
(NRC) was asked to review the importance to the nation of
the science agenda for the Rare Isotope Accelerator. The President
of the National Academies and NRC Chair, Ralph Cicerone, has
formed the Rare Isotope Science Assessment Committee (RISAC)
of the National Research Council and has selected and approved
the committee members.
