feature community-nominated science talks as well as a
roundtable discussion with TRIUMF's senior management to better
align & communicate needs, resources, and future plans. We

For the 2nd time, the TUG-AGM will be hosting the<strong class="">
TUG Student Prize</strong> and the <strong class="">TUG Student
Poster</strong> competitions with generous support from TRIUMF.
Finalists will be selected on the basis of their CV, an abstract,
and one letter of recommendation, and will be invited to give an
oral presentation or to present a poster at the TUG AGM. There
will be cash prizes awarded for the student oral presentations
(1st prize $500, 2nd prize $250, two 3rd prizes $100 each) and for
the top student poster presentation ($150). <br>

<b>July 21st - 5th International ARIEL Science Workshop on New
Initiatives in Experimental Equipment</b><br>
The ARIEL Science Workshop series informs the international
scientific community of the capabilities of ARIEL and ISAC;
highlights technical progress made on various aspects of the
project; identifies unique and world-leading scientific goals
enabled by ARIEL and ISAC; and identifies facility upgrades needed
to reach those goals. With the science program expected to come
online in 2019 with 8Li and 2020 with electron-driven photo fission,
this year's workshop will focus on the latter: new initiatives or
upgrades to take advantage of ARIEL beams. The workshop provides an
opportunity for participants to present their plans and visions, and
to build the collaborations and support needed to realize those
plans in time for the first ARIEL beams.<br>
<br>
The workshop consists of invited and contributed talks. The invited
talks will include the status of ARIEL, experience gained from other
electron-beam facilities, and some nascent experiment plans. We
welcome contributed talks on new initiatives, in particular those
which will be seeking funding in upcoming competitions. As in past
workshops, if you would like to contribute, please contact a member
of the organizing committee before May 31. While we will endeavour
to accommodate all relevant contributions, those who contact the
committee earlier will receive higher priority.<br>
<br>
Confirmed speakers to date are Dan Lascar, Dennis Muecher, and
Andrew Macfarlane.<br>
<br>
