HRIBF Workshop - Near and Sub-barrier Fusion of Radioactive Ions with Medium and Heavy Targets September 15-16, 2005 Bldg. 6008 Conference Room

Session 1 - Sub-barrier fusion of heavy nuclei - experiment

The role of nuclear structure (excitation, deformation nuclear transfer and breakup)

Session 2 - Sub-barrier fusion of heavy nuclei - theory

The role of nuclear structure (CC, TDHF, Semi-classical, other approahces)

Session 3 - Fusion studies with neutron rich unstable nuclei - experiment

Looking for enhancements in formation and survival probabilities.

Session 4 - Fusion studies with neutron rich unstable nuclei

Studies of formation and survival probabilities

Session 5 - Capabilities and equipment at HRIBF

Session 6 - "Similar" RIB Facilities (< 15MeV/A all masses)

Capabilities of existing and planned facilities

Session 7 - Moderated Panel discussion and input session

What makes HRIBF unique at present and what studies should be emphasized, upgrade paths, new ideas
