Geometric Models of Nuclear Matter Conference
There will be a conference on geometric models of nuclear matter from Monday, 18/08/2014 to Wednesday, 20/08/2014. The conference is supported by a conference grant from the IoP Mathematical and Theoretical Physics Group and the IoP Nuclear Physics Group. The talks will take place in the Maths Lecture Theatre at the SMSAS at Kent. Please download the program in color or in black and white.The conference poster can be found here.
The conference dinner will take place on Tuesday, 19/08/2014 at 7 pm in Pinocchio’s. The £24 for the three course dinner menu should be paid at the registration desk. The menu can be found here.
