ENAM?04 Fourth International Conference on Exotic Nuclei and Atomic Masses

nam04：第四届外来核与原子质量国际会议是一个三年一度的国际会议系列，致力于远离稳定核和放射性离子束（RIB）的物理学。肋骨科学是极其广泛和多样的。它涵盖了从核结构到天体物理学，对自然基本定律的测试，以及无数的应用。然而，它的特点是几个包含主题，反映了当今现代科学面临的主要挑战，它与许多其他领域有着深刻的联系。在ENAM上讨论的科学挑战将包括以下令人信服的问题：*重元素是如何产生的，核性质如何影响恒星？*原子核的结构是什么？复杂系统是如何从单个组成部分推导出它们的特性的？*复杂的多体系统是如何显示出如此惊人的规律的？哪些新的对称性是奇异核的特征？*自然界的基本对称性是什么？在世界范围内，对外来核的研究进展迅速。随着大量的放射性离子束设施正在运行，正在建设和拟议中，ENAM是一个独特的论坛，讨论该领域令人兴奋的发展，包括实验发现，理论建模，技术进步和应用。第四届会议将在美国乔治亚州松山的卡拉威花园举行。这次会议的时机非常好。最近的核物理长期计划已将稀有同位素加速器确定为美国核物理新建设的最高优先事项。对于美国的RIA社区和全世界的rib社区来说，ENAM是一个最重要的会议。

ENAM04: Fourth International Conference on Exotic Nuclei and Atomic Masses ABSTRACTENAM is a triennial international conference series devoted to thephysics of nuclei far from stability and radioactive ion beams (RIB).RIB science is extremely broad and diverse. It spans the gamut fromnuclear structure to astrophysics, tests of fundamental laws of nature,and myriad applications. Nevertheless, it is characterized by severalencompassing themes that reflect the major challenges facing modernscience today, and it has deep links to many other fields.The scientifing challenges discussed at ENAM will include thefollowing compelling questions:* How are the heavy elements created and how do nuclear properties influence the stars?* What is the structure of atomic nuclei and how do complex systems derive their properties from their individual constituents?* How can complex many-body systems display such astonishing regularities and which new symmetries characterize exotic nuclei?* What are the fundamental symmetries of nature?Worldwide, the study of exotic nuclei is in rapid advance. With thelarge number of radioactive ion beam facilities that are operating,under construction, and proposed, ENAM is a unique forum to discuss theexciting developments in the field, including experimental discoveries,theoretical modeling, technological advances, and applications. TheFourth Conference will be at Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain, GeorgiaUSA. The timing of the meeting is excellent. The recent NuclearPhysics Long Range Plan has identified the Rare Isotope Accelerator asthe highest priority for new construction in nuclear physics for theUnited States. For the RIA community in the USA, and for the RIBcommunity worldwide, ENAM is the single most important meeting.
