Dense Nuclear Matter Equation of State from Theory and Experiments
IRL-NPA FRIB
We are excited to announce the upcoming collaborative workshop on Dense Matter Equation of State from Theory and Experiments organized by IRL NPA (In2p3/FRIB) and taking place from Oct 28 to Nov 1 at FRIB. The meeting will be aimed at gathering researchers from multiple communities interested in the nuclear matter equation of state (EOS): an area that is currently undergoing rapid development due to upcoming unprecedented experimental opportunities, notably at FRIB, and the advent of multi-messenger astronomical observations.
The workshop will include discussions of the latest measurements from astrophysics and laboratory experiments, recent developments in ab initio calculations, and new results from dynamic models.
A significant portion of the workshop will be used to form working groups devoted to well-defined and closely-connected challenges:
1. Studies of new observables, both from nuclear structure and nuclear dynamics, to obtain tighter constraints on the EOS.
2. Quantification of the theoretical uncertainties and theoretical errors, development of appropriate likelihood models for Bayesian estimation, and using emulators and other machine learning techniques.
3. Optimization of the comparison protocol between transport models and data, notably via a controlled estimation of the unmeasured theoretical parameters and cross-comparison of different experimental data sets.
Following the working group sessions, we will reconvene to summarize the discussions, identify near-term research directions, and prioritize the topics for future endeavors. If applicable, emerging collaborative efforts will be formulated and timelines for obtaining and presenting results in a publication will be discussed.
The workshop will be held primarily in-person, but a limited number of online participants will be allowed. Participation in the workshop is confirm upon the local organizing committee approval; currently, we expect about 40 participants. Partial support for in-person participation will be available for colleagues working in CNRS labs or in US institutions; this support is not guaranteed and will be granted based on need and alignment with the workshop topic. Please see Participant Support Information for more details.
If you are applying for financial support, please register by June 25th (CNRS Labs) / August 2nd (US Institutions).
The registration will close on August 9th, 2024. We are looking forward to seeing you in East Lansing!
