First Circular: 3rd ARIEL Science Workshop & 8pi Symposium

[Science Division]

Dear Colleague,

As announced previously, the Third International ARIEL Science Workshop 
will be held on July 17th, 2013 and an 8pi Spectrometer Symposium will 
be held on July 18th, 2013. These events will be held in conjunction 
with the TRIUMF Users' Group Annual General Meeting which will be July 
16th and the MMS-EEC Meeting (July 15th & 16th) and SAP-EEC (July 19th & 
20th). The website for these events can be found at 
http://www.triumf.ca/research-program/lectures-conferences-0. The 
website includes a link to the registration page and registration is 
required for: the TRIUMF Users' Group AGM, the 3rd International ARIEL 
Science Workshop, and the 8pi Spectrometer Symposium. There will be BBQ 
dinners for the TUG AGM and the 8pi Spectrometer Symposium (which also 
require registration). All registrations require a $20 registration fee 
which will go towards coffee break catering, the BBQ catering, and 
covering some of the accommodation costs for committee members and 
invited speakers (one registration fee for all or any of the events).

*_July 17th - 3rd International ARIEL Science Workshop_*

The Advanced Rare IsotopE Laboratory (ARIEL) 
<http://www.triumf.ca/ariel> will be TRIUMF's flagship facility, 
expanding Canada's capabilities to produce and study isotopes for 
science and medicine. In addition to the e-linac, which is already 
funded, the ARIEL project includes a second proton beam line for rare 
isotope production. Together with the existing proton target for ISAC, 
the parallel operation of 3 RIB production targets at TRIUMF will enable 
a broad spectrum of world-class science.

The scope of the third ARIEL Science Workshop is: to inform the 
international scientific community of the capabilities of ARIEL and 
ISAC; to highlight technical progress made on various aspects of the 
project; to identify unique and world-leading scientific opportunities 
for ARIEL and ISAC; and to describe the construction and funding status 
as well as possibly to refine the planned implementation scenario. 
Special attention will be paid to experiments probing fundamental 
symmetries of nature, especially those enabled either by proton 
spallation on ARIEL or ISAC targets or by the possible availability of 
long beam times as TRIUMF with ARIEL and ISAC evolves into a multi-user 
radioactive beam facility. Invited speakers include Harvey Gould (LBNL), 
Peter Mueller (ANL), Eduardo Gomez (San Luis Potosi), Ritu Kanungo 
(Saint Mary's University), John Behr (TRIUMF), and Lia Merminga (TRIUMF).

_*July 18th - 8pi Spectrometer Symposium

*_We will be holding a symposium at TRIUMF on July 18th, 2013 to 
celebrate over 25 years of scientific accomplishments using the 8pi 
gamma-ray spectrometer, which is in its final year of operation at 
TRIUMF-ISAC and will be replaced by the GRIFFIN spectrometer in 2014 
(see attached poster: 8pi Spectrometer Symposium: A Celebration of 
Discovery). Confirmed invited speakers include: Jim Waddington 
(McMaster), David Ward, David Radford (ORNL), Andreas Goergen (UiO), Guy 
Savard (ANL), Alfredo Galindo-Uribarri (ORNL), Takashi Nakatsukasa 
(RIKEN), Mitch Allmond (ORNL), Fred Sarazin (CSM), John Wood (Georgia 
Tech), and Steve Yates (U of Kentucky).

Sincerely,

The ARIEL Science Workshop Organizing Committee
