FRIB Theory Users Group

Welcome

Welcome to the FRIB Theory Users Group, now incorporated within the FRIB Users Organization.

The primary purpose of this Group is to organize the nuclear theory community interested in FRIB physics to:

* Identify and prioritize the most important physics to be addressed at FRIB, and to support FRIB’s experimental program.

* Act as a forum and a voice for the nuclear structure/reactions, nuclear astrophysics, and fundamental symmetries theory community as it works to enhance the nuclear theory effort in the US.

* Partner with the FRIB Users Organization and the FRIB Users Organization Executive Committee to promote FRIB science.

Nominate Candidates for Elections to the Executive Committees

Two FTUG members (Wick Haxton, Thomas Papenbrock) will rotate off the FRIB Theory Users Group Executive Committee at the end of 2011. An election for their replacements will be held in early 2012. The nominations committee – made up of the continuing members of the FTUG Executive Committee -- Baha Balantekin, Filomena Nunes, and Piet Van Isacker -- requests nominations from the community at this time. Please send your suggestions by email to Filomena Nunes, nunes at nscl.msu.edu

As a consequence of the merger of the FRIB Theory Users Group, the FRIB Users Organization Executive Committee will henceforth have at least one theory member. In the latest election of the Committee in December 2011, Ian Thompson [LLNL] was elected into this slot, and will serve a three year term that began on January 1, 2012.
