Two currently funded international collaborative programs in nuclear theory:
France-U.S. Theory Institute for Physics with Exotic Nuclei (FUSTIPEN)(CUSTIPEN)
CUSTIPEN was officially launched on May 1, 2013 at Peking University

Exotic Nuclei
Collaborations are essential to move forward!
The complexity of the new problems/challenges require varied expertise, theoretical tools, computing resources,
minds, manpower
and funding that are hard to find in a single country

CUSTIPEN’s objective:
Providing theoretical support in combining American and Chinese nuclear forces to explore a
rich menu of compelling science opportunities
with exotic nuclei
Both countries
have invested heavily in radioactive beam facilities and experiments
Experiments in both countries need
stronger theoretical
supports
China
continuingly provides
many high-quality
Ph.D
students and postdocs
in nuclear physics
to
the USA
, CUSTIPEN facilitates continued collaboration of
Chinese oversea-returners
and
their US partners,
thus e
nhance
workforce mobility across the pacific
ocean
More students, postdocs and faculty members paid by China to work in the US, e.g., two
nuclear theorists were paid by China Scholarship Council to
work
at TAMUC last year
Better use of Chinese world-leading expertise in certain areas of nuclear theory in understanding US-Lab data: e.g., IQMD analysis of NSCL data on
isospin
diffusion by the CIAE group
(Tsang et al., PRL
); RMF analysis of ANL data on chiral doublet bands in
133Ce by the PKU group (Ayangeakaa et al. PRL), and vice versa, e.g., analyses of IMP data on the masses of exotic nuclei by H. Schatz and Alex Brown (Tu et al. PRL and Zhang et al. PRL)Making use of Chinese world-leading super-computing capabilities
Benefits to the US Nuclear Physics Programs
---
making better use of Chinese expertise, funding, workforce and computing power
Slide5Achievements so farVisits to CUSTIPEN by US-based scientists: 28 person-times during the first 2 years
Joint publications acknowledging DOE support for CUSTIPEN: 19 published, several under review and/or in preparation
Examples of joint projects:Adaptive multi-resolution 3D Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov solver, odd-even mass staggering of Sn isotopes,
Ab-initio calculations of nuclear structure, modern nuclear forces,nuclear symmetry energy, shear viscosity of neutron-rich matter,neutron-proton effective mass splitting in neutron-rich matter,neutron-skin of heavy nuclei, evaluation of nuclear data,
EOS-gravity degeneracy in neutron stars…
