Description

We are delighted to announce that the Nuclear Physics in Astrophysics School XII  (NPA School XII) will take place at the Babeş – Bolyai University in Cluj-Napoca, Romania from August 31st to September 4th, 2026.

The school is connected to the International Conference on Nuclear Physics in Astrophysics XII and aims at introducing important concepts related to nuclear astrophysics, including experimental and theoretical nuclear physics, astrophysics and astronomical observations. The program is structured around a balance of contribution of lectures courses and hands-on laboratory sessions. The school is targeted at PhD student and early postdoc researchers (up to 2 years after PhD) working in the field of Nuclear Astrophysics and related topic.
