The 2nd Notre Dame-Europe Symposium on Nuclear Science
and Society (SNSS15) will be held at the Notre Dame Rome Center during
Nov. 4-6, 2015.
The first in this series of symposia, organized by
the Nuclear Physics Group at the University of Notre Dame, was held
at the Notre Dame London Center in October, 2014 (http://isnap.nd.edu/events/NSS2014/).
These symposia aim to discuss the current trends in applied nuclear
science and it is envisioned that each will highlight selected applications
of nuclear science benefitting society in general. The primary focus
of the Rome Symposium will be on applications of nuclear science in
the areas of art, archaeology, architecture, and environment; at the
London symposium, it was medical physics and energy applications. Our
endeavor is to bring together practitioners of the techniques of nuclear
physics in varied applications for discussions/cross fertilization of
ideas.
The University of Notre Dame has had a long history
of research in nuclear sciences-the first accelerator at Notre Dame
had become operational in 1937! The
Nuclear Science Laboratory currently houses two accelerators-an
FN Tandem Van de Graaff and a new high-current 5MV NEC accelerator.
In recent years, an active applied nuclear physics program has taken
root at the Nuclear Science Laboratory and it is expected to grow substantially
over the next few years, with the addition of new faculty lines and
two new accelerators devoted mainly to applied work. It is our hope
that these symposia will become instruments of cross-fertilization of
ideas and development of collaborative efforts in this important research
endeavor.
This symposium is sponsored by the Notre
Dame International.
