SNAQ5: What does nuclear
     physics do for
     astrophysics?
         From the organizers of the
    Carpathian Summer Schools of Physics

           Zoom - June 9th, 2021

Carpathian Summer Schools of Physics
• 28 editions since 1964 in the Carpathian Mts: Predeal, Poiana
  Brasov, Sinaia
• Starting 2005: 7 editions focus on nuclei, nuclear and particle astrophysics
              Exotic Nuclei and Nuclear/Particle Astrophysics
                        Physics with small accelerators
• Part of the European Network of Nuclear Astrophysics Schools (ENNAS):
    – CSSP: Carpathian SSP, Sinaia, Romania
    – ESSENA: European Summer School of
    Experimental Nuclear Astrophysics, Catania, Italy
    – RWNA: Russbach Workshop on NA, Austria
•   On the ChETEC-INFRA list of NA schools,
      ENSAR2, endorsed by EPS, etc…
Some info: school and conference format, 2 weeks
    Biennial, CSSP20: the 29th edition
    Past 7 editions: 100-120 participants, ~ 55 lecturers

The Carpathian Summer School of Physics 2020 was brutally cancelled by the global coronavirus crisis. Now, thru
governments’ measures, the so-many-times heroic work of health personnel, and the contribution of many of our colleagues,
scientists, thru protection measures and vaccines, this crisis is less imposing on us, and we believe that we can slowly start
getting back to the normal life. It will, of course, be a new normal life. We need to re-create the opportunities for in-
person communication for all and the newer generations in our specific field, we plan to have this Carpathian school in-
person, on August 18-27, 2021, in Sinaia, Romania.

We offer fellowships for students consisting in local support (accommodation and fee).
