Scientific Working Groups
The CINP bylaws allow for the creation of Scientific Working Groups (SWGs) to assist with the organization of the Institutes scientific program.
| Working Group | Chair | Institution | Contact | Term Expires |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nuclear Structure | Paul Garrett | University of Guelph | pgarrett @ physics.uoguelph.ca | 2029 |
| Nuclear Astrophysics | Nicole Vassh | TRIUMF | nvassh @ triumf.ca | 2029 |
| Fundamental Symmetries | Jeff Martin | University of Winnipeg | jmartin @ nuclear.uwinnipeg.ca | 2029 |
| Hadronic Physics/QCD | Svetlana Barkanova | Memorial University | sbarkanova @ grenfell.mun.ca | 2029 |
| Nuclear Theory | Alexandros Gezerlis | University of Guelph | gezerlis @ uoguelph.ca | 2026 |
| Nuclear Physics Education and Training | Ruben Sandapen | Acadia University | ruben.sandapen @ acadiau.ca | 2029 |
SWGs can be formed by the Board of Directors as deemed appropriate. Individual Members may also petition the Board for the formation of a SWG. The role and activity level of a SWG will be ultimately determined by its members, but could include:
- Holding topical workshops or other initiatives.
- Providing input to CINP external scientific briefs:
- NSERC Large Projects Day
- Subatomic Physics Long Range Plan
- Encouraging new collaborative efforts.
The intent is for the scientific activities of the CINP to be ambitious and broad-based. ALL Individual Members are eligible for membership in one or more SWGs. Membership in a SWG is deliberately NOT exclusive. You DO NOT need to be affiliated with an Institutional Member to join.
