Nuclear fusion reactions are widely used in nuclear physics to produce nuclei far from the beta ß-stability line and superheavy nuclei, to explore the properties of excited nuclear states and the mechanisms of their decay and to study the dynamics of nuclear reactions. The burning of stars and nucleosynthesis of elements and their relative abundances are associated with reactions involving the sub-barrier fusion of nuclei. In India, with the upcoming RIB facilities, many research students and scientist are getting involved in studying various nuclear reactions of astrophysical importance.
With the energies & interaction rates foreseen at FAIR, the compressed baryonic matter will create highest baryon densities in nucleus–nucleus collisions to explore the properties of superdense baryonic matter. These nuclear collisions can compress the nuclear matter to densities achieved within neutron stars and core-collapse supernovae. Precise knowledge of Equation of State for exotic phases in superdense asymmetric & symmetric baryonic matter enables one to explore neutron star structure, their mass-radius relations and interior phase transitions as well as heavy-ion reactions at intermediate and relativistic energies. Core superfluidity with effect of strong magnetic field is also emerging as an important field of research.
The ‘CNT Lectures on Special Topics in Nuclear Astrophysics’ is intended for training of research students, post-docs and young researchers & expose them to the cutting-edge research in these fields. About 30 participants can be accommodated with full local hospitality and domestic travel support as per guidelines. There will be three lectures per day and the remaining time will be utilized for discussions and tutorials. Participants will have the opportunity to present their work. The school is a part of the Centre for Nuclear Theory (CNT) project of VECC.
The Inaugural session is on March 01, 2017 from 10:30 am to 11:20 am at Ajay Divatia Lecture Hall, VECC

Grid site administrators
The aim of this tutorial is to prepare system administrators on the installation of grid sites and actually put together those facilities to increase the size of the CHAIN/EU-IndiaGrid2 infrastructures. The first days will be dedicated to the gLite middleware, services installation and configuration. The second part will be dedicated to have the participants install sites, remotely (from the tutorial), at their home institutions. At the end of the school a participant organisation will have an operational grid node within the EU-IndiaGrid2 grid infrastructure.
Grid school on application porting
The Grid School aims at increasing the number of scientific/industrial applications running on the CHAIN/EU-IndiaGrid2 production infrastructure. A participant will learn how to port, deploy and run his application on the CHAIN/EU-IndiaGrid2 grid infrastructure. The School also aims at bringing new research groups to use the CHAIN/EU-IndiaGrid2 resources as well as to diversity the application domains and scientific communities. At the end of the school a participant will have its own application operational and running on the EU-IndiaGrid2 grid infrastructure.
The school will take in total 18 days and it aims at support participants at effectively porting and running an application on the Grid. As you may see it consists of two separate parts: one for site administrators, one for application porting.

A BRNS sponsored workshop on the Evaluation of Nuclear Structure and Decay Data (ENSDD-2012) will be held at the Variable Energy Cyclotron Centre during November 26 – 29, 2012. This event, organized under the aegis of the Nuclear Data Physics Centre of India (NDPCI), is the first of its kind in India. The aim of the workshop is to provide detailed information and training on the evaluation of nuclear structure and decay data in the ENSDF (Evaluated Nuclear Structure Data File) format.
The importance and necessity of the evaluation of nuclear structure and decay data is growing very fast with the advent of technological advancement in accelerator technology, nuclear detection and data acquisition systems. The evaluated data are useful not only for the physicists involved in the basic research of nuclear physics and astrophysics but equally important to a large community in the applied areas of nuclear power, material analysis, dosimetry, medical diagnostics and treatment etc.
The evaluation is carried out by the International Network of Nuclear Structure and Decay Data (NSDD) Evaluators (http://www-nds.iaea.org/nsdd/) under the auspices of the IAEA. India is an active member of this network and the community of the ENSDF Evaluators in India is growing fast, particularly after the formation of the NDPCI. This workshop will bring some of the best international experts together and put them in touch with other evaluators to update on the recent developments in the ENSDF evaluation and also to encourage students and faculties to undertake ENSDF evaluation.
We look forward to your participation in ENSDD-2012 at VECC, Kolkata
