What is
?
3
A European Center
  • Established in 1993
  • bottom up realization, supported by a broad
    community (ECT associates)
  • Strong local support (PAT/FBK, major part of
    funding, administration)
  • MoU with France, Germany, Italy, Denmark and many
    other countries
  • Unique in Europe (other comparable center in the
    USA INT at Seattle)
  • A large flux of visitors (about 800 per year)

4
For Theoretical Studies
  • Research done at ECT is theoretical
  • But most meetings involve theorists and
    experimentalists, especially collaboration
    meetings
  • Some ECT researchers have very close contacts
    with experimental groups
  • Large variety of topics, mostly related to
    various aspects of nuclear physics.
  • Also cross-disciplinary activities (BEC)
  • Theoretical tools common to many branches of
    physics
  • Large scale numerical calculations (AURORA)
  • Library (on site, and access to that of the
    Physics Department of University of Trento)

5
in Nuclear Physics
  • Nuclear physics in a broad sense (low energy
    nuclear physics and nuclear structure, quantum
    chromodynamics and hadron physics, physics of
    matter under extreme conditions and
    ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions)

6
and Related Areas
  • Which includes topics in
  • Astrophysics
  • Particle physics
  • Condensed matter physics
  • Many-body theory, quantum field theory
  • Bose-Einstein condensation

7
  • ECT
  • European Center for
  • Theoretical Studies in
  • Nuclear Physics and
  • Related Areas
  • Institutional Member of
  • the European Science Foundation
  • Expert Committee, NuPECC
