16th ASRC International Workshop“Nuclear Fission and Structure of Exotic Nuclei”
Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), Tokai
18 – 20 March 2014
Supported by the Reimei Foundation,
Advanced Science Research Center ( ASRC) of JAEA

Dear Colleague,
An international workshop: “Nuclear Fission and Structure of Exotic Nuclei” will be held on 18-20
March 2014 at JAEA, Tokai, Japan. The meeting will mainly be devoted to new experimental andtheoretical achievements in fission, nuclear transmutation, and structure of exotic nuclei.
Attention will also be given to relevant developments of detectors and new facilities. (Workshophomepage : http://asrc.jaea.go.jp/soshiki/gr/chiba_gr/workshop3/index3.html )Dedicated topics and/or sessions are as follows.
