There is a mandatory registration fee of $75 to attend this workshop, payable in cash (preferred) or a check drawn on a U.S. bank.
The INT is grateful to the Joint Institute for Nuclear Astrophysics
for its contributions in support of this workshop.
Introduction:
In February 1997, at the suggestion of John Bahcall, a group of investigators interested in the solar neutrino problem (and in hydrogen-burning stars generally) gathered at the Institute for Nuclear Theory to assess what is known about the nuclear physics of solar energy production. The group critically analyzed cross section data and theoretical analyses of that data to provide a set of "best values" and uncertainties for the needed S-factors. The results of this workshop were presented in a Reviews of Modern Physics article, RMP 70 (1998) 1265, that is now rated by Spires as a "famous paper."
The purpose of the 21-23 January 2009 workshop will be to reassess these cross section recommendations, in light of a variety of important new measurements and theory developments of the past decade. The workshop will be organized around twelve working groups:
While applications are welcome, the attendance will be capped (as in 1997)
so that the working groups can function efficiently. The organizers and
working group leaders will work together in making decisions on applications,
if oversubscription occurs.
Working group leaders will also identify and post key papers on this
page, prior to the start of the workshop. Please feel free to contact the working
group leaders if you see important omissions. The emphasis will be on work done
since the 1997 workshop.
