The 1st IReNA-Ukakuren Joint Workshop “Advancing Professional Development in Nuclear Astrophysics and Beyond” took place on August 28th - September 1, 2023, at National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ).
This was the first workshop promoting exchange of human resources between Japan Forum of Nuclear Astrophysics (JaFNA or Ukakuren) and International Research Network for Nuclear Astrophysics (IReNA), with a core emphasis on professional development of young scientists.
The workshop covered a wide range of research topics in nuclear astrophysics;
- Nuclear Equation of State
- Nuclear structures and reactions for astrophysics
- Stellar evolution, explosive phenomena, and nucleosynthesis
- The early Universe: Big Bang nucleosynthesis and metal-poor stars
- Chemical evolution of star clusters and galaxies
- New facilities and experimental techniques
- Neutrino and particle physics
- Recent hot topics and others
and we had many discussions between researchers interested in nuclear physics experiments, nuclear theory, astronomical observations, nuclear astrophysics theory, and any related areas.
We congratulate the winners of the poster session:
- Kosuke Sakanashi (Osaka University)
- Mackenzie Smith (Michigan State University / FRIB)
- Yugo Motogami (Saitama University)
- Kurumi Furutsuka (University of Hyogo)
