Advances and Challenges in Nuclear Astrophysics

ECT* Workshop, 24-28 May 2004


The goal of the workshop is to bring together specialists to discuss the most recent advances and highlights in nuclear astrophysics.

We aim at covering the following topics: recent advances in reaction models in nuclear astrophysics, solar physics, standard Big-Bang nucleosynthesis, nucleosynthesis in novae, photon induced reactions and nucleosynthesis, neutron star matter, experimental studies of reactions involved in explosive events, indirect methods in experimental nuclear astrophysics, neutron sources for the s-process, experimental questions and challenges for the s-, r- and p-process, gamma-ray astronomy.
