XLV Symposium on Nuclear Physics, January 8-11th 2024


The Mexican Symposium on Nuclear Physics has been organized yearly since 1978. Its main goal is to bring together nuclear physicists working on fields that are related to the interests of the local groups, particularly in the following topics:
  • Nuclear Structure
  • Nuclear Reactions
  • Physics with radioactive ion beams
  • Hadron Physics
  • Nuclear Astrophysics
  • Neutron Physics
  • LHC Physics
  • Applied Nuclear Physics
  • Nuclear Instrumentation

ANNOUNCEMENTS

September 1st, 2024


Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the 45th Symposium on Nuclear Physics, to be held at the Hacienda Cocoyoc (Cocoyoc, Morelos, México), January 8th-11th, 2024.

This yearly event constitutes a forum for interaction and exchange of ideas among physicists working in areas as nuclear structure and reactions, (relativistic) heavy ions, subnuclear physics, radioactive beams, nuclear astrophysics, applied nuclear physics, neutron physics and nuclear instrumentation.

The meeting consists of a series of topical sessions with invited talks focusing in the areas mentioned above. In addition, there will be a poster session normally dedicated to show the research work of the youngest. The attendance is kept small, with a maximum of about fifty people.

There is a 420 USD conference fee, which includes round trip transportation Mexico City - Cocoyoc (about an hour and a half road trip), all meals during the meeting and the Proceedings Symposium publication. Funding is available to promote the attendance of students affiliated to Mexican Universities and Research Institutes, however due to budgetary constraints, there are no funds available to support travel, lodging or registration fee of other participants.

Please inform to Daniel José Marín-Lámbarri dmarin@fisica.unam.mx, Roelof Bijker bijker@nucleares.unam.mx or Tochtli Yépez Martínez tochesrabbit@gmail.com about your participation and, if you intend to have, about your contribution to this event (posters and invited talks).

Please forward this announcement to any of your colleagues who might be interested in attending the meeting.

With best regards,


The local organizing committee

Daniel José Marín-Lámbarri (IF-UNAM)
Roelof Bijker (ICN-UNAM)
Tochtli Yépez Martínez (IEMS)

CONFERENCE FEE

The conference fee of 420 USD for all participants, includes registration, round trip transportation Mexico City - Cocoyoc (about an hour and a half road trip), all the meals during the symposium, and a publication on the conference proceedings. Accompanying persons pay 120 USD (includes transportation and all the meals during the symposium).

Students affiliated to Mexican Universities and Research Institutes can apply for economical support to cover registration and lodging expenses. Unfortunately, due to budgetary constraints, there are no funds available to support travel, lodging, registration fee, or other local expenses of other participants.

Conference fee has to be paid upon arrival to the Hotel Hacienda Cocoyoc, either in cash or credit card. For payment online, you can use the following links of "Mercado Pago":


ACCOMODATION

The Hacienda Cocoyoc is located an hour and a half from Mexico City. The meeting starts with a late afternoon session on Monday, January 8th, and ends at lunch time on Thursday, January 11th. Bus transportation to Mexico City - Cocoyoc on Monday morning, and Cocoyoc - Mexico City on Thursday afternoon, will be provided.

For people who need to stay in Mexico City before and/or after the meeting, we recommend the Hotel Ritz Ciudad de México in the Historic Center of Mexico City. Hotel rate for the participants of the meeting is around 1480 MXP in single or double occupancy (tax included). Reservations can be made through the organizing committee indicating the dates in your Registration.

For the meeting, reservations at the Hotel Hacienda Cocoyoc can be made either with Guadalupe Salgado by e-mail: guadalupe.salgado@lomasdecocoyoc.com or by phone: +52 (735)356 1211 ext. 1263, 1269 or 1225. Please indicate if your room is double or single occupancy, the arrival and departure dates, the group ID "UNAM", and your credit card number (hotel requirement). Hotel rate for the participants of the meeting is around 1815 MXP in single occupancy and 2100 MXP in double occupancy (tax included).

ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS

When arriving to Mexico City, it is strongly recommended to take an OFFICIAL (authorized) airport taxi to the hotel. Tickets for these taxis can be bought at the ticket booths inside the airport.

On Monday (Jan/8th) morning, participants will be transported by bus from the Hotel Ritz Ciudad de México (Francisco I. Madero 30 Centro Histórico, 06000 Mexico City) to the Hotel Hacienda Cocoyoc. The bus is scheduled to leave the Hotel at 10:00 AM and there will be other 2 stops: one at "Parque Hundido" around Plaza Dolores del Río (Insurgentes Sur S/N, Mexico City), and second at "Estadio Olímpico Ciudad Universitaria, UNAM" (Av. de los Insurgentes Sur S/N, C.U., Coyoacán, 04510 Mexico City), at around 10:30 AM and 10:45 AM, respectively (depending on the traffic). On Thursday (Jan/11th) afternoon, the bus will depart towards Mexico City at around 3:00 PM.

People who arrive too late for the bus can take a taxi to the Hotel Hacienda Cocoyoc (about 2400 MXP with an official airport taxi).
