Abstract

The Asian Nuclear Physics Association (ANPhA) is the central organization representing nuclear physics community in Asia Pacific. ANPhA is now preparing a list of accelerators applicable for nuclear physics experiments in Asia Pacific. Among the listed facilities, world-class major accelerator facilities are mainly located in China (Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou (HIRFL), and its future extension in Huizhou, i.e. HIAF/CiADS, Beijing Tandem Accelerator National Laboratory (BTANL), which is now upgraded to Beijing RI beam Facility (BRIF)), in Korea (RISP/RAON), and in Japan (RIBF at RIKEN, J-PARC, RCNP, and ELPH/LEPS). Characteristics of these major facilities including their developments will be briefly reviewed in comparing with similar ones in Europe and North America.

Summary

Introduction

The Asian Nuclear Physics Association (ANPhA) [1] was established in 2009 in Beijing, where representatives of the first four member countries of ANPhA gathered together. ANPhA is the central organization representing nuclear physics in Asia Pacific and currently consists of eleven member countries and regions, i.e. Australia, China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Kazakhstan, Korea, Mongolia, Myanmar, Taiwan, and Vietnam. To strengthen “Collaboration” among Asian nuclear research scientists through the promotion of nuclear physics and its transdisciplinary and applications, 2. To “coordinate” among Asian nuclear scientists by actively utilizing existing research facilities, 4. In 2015, ANPhA decided to play a role as the Division of Nuclear Physics (DNP) of Association of Asia Pacific Physics Societies (AAPPS). ANPhA (=AAPPS-DNP) is, in practice, a major organization to discuss and pursuit issues in Asian nuclear physics community. Awards for young Scientists [2] for ANPhA supported scientific meetings, which were selected appropriate times per year (6 times in 2019) in Asia Pacific region
