22nd ASRC International Workshop " Nuclear Fission and Exotic Nuclei "

Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), Tokai, Japan
3-5.December.2014

Supported by Advanced Science Research Center (ASRC ), JAEA

Organized by the Nuclear Physics Group of the ASRC ( here )
and Nuclear Physics Group of the University of York ( here )

An international workshop : "Nuclear Fission and Exotic Nuclei" will be held on 3rd-5th December 2014 at JAEA , Tokai, Japan. The meeting will mainly be devoted to new experimental and theoretical achievements in fission, super-heavy nuclei, nuclear reaction and structure of exotic nuclei. Attention will also be given to relevant developments of detectors and new facilities. This is the 4th meeting in the series of workshops held at ASRC (Tokai). The links to three earlier workshops can be found below.
2014 "Nuclear Fission and Structure of Exotic Nuclei"
2013 "Nuclear Fission and Decay of Exotic Nuclei"
2012 "Perspectives in Nuclear Fission" .
Dedicated topics and/or sessions are as follows.

• Nuclear fission
• Super-heavy nuclei
• Multi-nucleon transfer and break up reactions
• Fusion with heavy ions
• New techniques for fission studies
• Structure of proton- and neutron-rich nuclei
• Decay of exotic nuclei

We will organize a session in honor of Dr. Peter Möller on the occasion of his 70th birthday, where his scientific achievements and the research history will be highlighted.
