• Call for application 2017 March• Deadline for application 2017 April• 13 applicants (exp:9, th:4)• 9 at 2016

• Selection Committee Member:
W. Horiuchi, T. Isobe, Y. Kanada-En’yo, T. Matsumoto, T.
Nakamura, S. Ota, S. Sakaguchi, M. Wakasugi, Y.
Watanabe, K. Wimmer, K. Yoshida, J. Zenihiro• The nominee is supposed to have completed his or her
doctorate within 5 years.

• Major changes in call for the Award:• [1]For theoretical study, the contribution toexperimental researches atRIBF is explicitly requested.
• "This is the announcement of RIBF Users Group Thesis Award,
which honors the achievement of a young scholar whoearned his or her doctoral degree based on an RIBF
experiment (using BigRIPS, GARIS, CRIB, RIPS, etc.), or atheoretical study contributing to experimental researches atRIBF.“• [2]We accepted non-English thesis in the following
condition. For non-English thesis, we asked peer review
to native researchers out from the selection committee.
• "A non- English thesis is accepted if there is English
publication(s) which contains main results of the thesis. For
the non-English thesis, (5) an extended abstract (about 5pages) including brief description of each chapter is requiredin addition to the standard abstract (2)."Thesis award: RIBF Users Group
Thesis Award 2017
• Dr. Kazuyuki Sekizawa: Multinucleon Transfer
Reactions and Quasifission Processes in TimeDependent Hartree-Fock Theory• University of Tsukuba in 2015

• Dr. Jin Wu: Beta-decay spectroscopy of Z=55∼67
neutron-rich nuclei• Peking University in 2016
