The International Nuclear Physics Conference is one of the major events of the global Nuclear Physics community. This important event takes place once every 3 years in various cities around the globe with recent conferences held in cities like Florence, Vancouver and Tokyo. The event brings together some of the most important and brilliant minds in the field of Nuclear Physics with the aim of exploring the most fascinating issues in this field.
An interesting feature of the conference is its support for students. It encourages the participation of young scientists working on topics covered by the event. Students may apply for support if they meet the criteria set forth by the organizers of the events. The best oral and poster presentations delivered by students will also be awarded a prize.
The 26th conference – the INPC 2016 will be held in September 2016 in the city of Adelaide, Australia. It will include conference presentations, plenary sessions, poster sessions and a public lecture. The organizers of the event are the center of the Subatomic Structure of Matter at the University of Adelaide, the Australian National University and ANSTO.
Here are some details about previous events, their venues, topics and other interesting facts.
