We are pleased to announce that “the 6th workshop on nuclear mass table with DRHBc theory” will take place at Guizhou Minzu University (Guiyang, China) from December 6 to 9, 2023. This workshop is a part of the series that started in 2018.
- The first workshop on nuclear mass table with DRHBc theory was held on Dec. 4-8, 2018 in Daejeon and Seoul, South Korea, hosted by Institute for Basic Science (IBS) and Soongsil University, with about 30 participants.
- The 2nd workshop was held at Peking University (Beijing, China) on Aug. 22-23, 2019 with about 50 participants. In this workshop, many participants from new institutes joined the project and established research networks for future collaborations.
- The 3rd workshop in hybrid format was held on Aug. 26-28, 2020 with about 40 participants in Pusan hosted by APCTP and Pusan National University to discuss the progresses of each group and future plans.
- The 4th workshop also in hybrid format was held on Dec. 16-18, 2021 with two on-site venues, i.e., Peking University, Beijing, China and Hoseo University, Asan, Korea. More than 50 participants attended the workshop.
- The 5th workshop was held on Aug. 28-31, 2022 hosted by APCTP Headquarters, Pohang, Korea. About 60 participants attended it on-site or online and discussed the working plan to finish the DRHBc mass table for even-Z nuclei.
As is well known, the covariant density functional theories have gained wide attention for describing successfully a variety of nuclear phenomena. As a representative one, the deformed relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov theory in continuum (DRHBc) has achieved great successes not only in stable nuclei but also in exotic nuclei by self-consistently taking into account the deformation, pairing correlations, and continuum effects. Using the state-of-the-art DRHBc theory with the preeminent density functional PC-PK1, a campaign has been started to construct the first nuclear mass table including continuum and deformation. For this purpose, the DRHBc mass table collaboration was established in Dec. 2018. The ground-state properties of even-even nuclei with 8 ≤ Z ≤ 120 from the proton drip line to the neutron drip line have been summarized and published in Atomic Data Nuclear Data Tables last year. The calculations for even-odd nuclei were finished and the second stage of the DRHBc mass table is going to be complete. Now we are moving to the next stage, also the last stage, of the DRHBc mass table: odd-Z nuclei. It is therefore necessary to organize a workshop to discuss the recent progresses on the mass table by the DRHBc theory and to strengthen the active scientific collaboration on broader topics.
In this 6th workshop, we would like to focus on the recent progress and achievement of each group for DRHBc calculations with even-Z nuclei. Next, we will discuss future plans for the odd-Z calculations. We expect that this workshop will fortify the collaboration in this field and produce more scientific outputs. The 6th workshop on nuclear mass table with DRHBc theory will be held on December 6 to 9, 2023 in Guiyang, Guizhou province, China, hosted by Guizhou Minzu University.
Main topics focused:
- Overview of the DRHBc calculations for even-Z nuclei;
