Survey of Nuclear Physics Activities in the World
- Overviews of the current status and future of Nuclear Physics in Europe (NuPECC Long Range Plan), in Japan, and in North America(NSAC Long Range Plan and updates, Canadian Subatomic Physics Five Year Plan) were presented by Walter F.Henning - GSI, Hideyuki Sakai - University of Tokyo, and Stuart J.Freedman -U. of California - Berkeley, respectively.
- Presentation of World's Big Facilities:
- GSI (W. Henning)
- J-PARC (S. Nagamiya)
- ISAC-II (W. T. H. van Oers)
- RIKEN (H, Sakai)
- J-Lab (Kees de Jagar)
- RI Accelerator (B. Sherrill)
- SPIRAL-2 in France
- SPES in Italy
- HIRFL in Landzou
- etc.
- Initiation of the Ad-Hoc Committee on "International Cooperation in Nuclear Physics" was strongly endorsed (the mission of this committee will be described separately).
- Chair of this committee will be A. W. Thomas.
Int. Comm. for Cooperation in Nuclear Physics
Task
-
To promote international cooperation in the broadest sense with the construction and exploitation of the very-large nuclear physics facilites, i.e. those, which are intended for use by a worldwide nuclear physics community.
-
To organise on a regular basis meetings, which are open to all wishing to attend, for the exchange of information on future plans for new nuclear physics facilities, be it very large multi-disciplinary facilities or facilities restricted to more regional use.
-
To stimulate the organizatio of workshops and/or symposia to discuss the future of nuclear physics and the need for facilities for the various subfields: high energy heavy-ion beam facilities, radioactive-ion beam facilities, multipurpose hadron beam facilities, high energy electron beam facilities. There is also the need to discuss facilities which are clearly cross-disciplinary, like underground laboratories for particle, nuclear, and nuclear-astrophysics.
-
Documentation of world facilities. Evaluation of different facilities. World usage of the existing facilities. Need of new facilities. etc. (The actual task will be discussed at the first meeting in 2004).
