The Joint Institute for Nuclear Astrophysics, Center for the Evolution of the Elements (JINA-CEE) has two new
partners in its effort to foster scientific collaboration across nuclear astrophysics at institutions
around the world. Recently, memoranda of understanding (MOU) were signed with the E. A. Milne Centre for Astrophysics, at the University of Hull, United Kingdom,
and the Anton Pannekoek Institute for Astronomy, at the University of Amsterdam, Netherlands.
The E. A. Milne Centre for Astrophysics and JINA-CEE will collaborate with senior collaborator Brad Gibson on galactic chemical evolution and nucleosynthesis model
calculations.
With Marco Pignatari (University of Hull) being the PI of the NuGrid collaboration, another focus of the MOU is the coordination of NuGrid related activities in JINA-CEE and the organization
of joint workshops and schools.
The Anton Pannekoek Institute for Astronomy faculty members Anna Watts and Rudy Wijnands, and Vidi Fellow Nathalie Degenaar, will be working with their JINA-CEE colleagues on nuclear reactions
and supranuclear density matter in neutron stars.
