Workshop on Multineutron Clusters in Nuclei and in Stars

The quest to understand multi-neutron systems has spanned several decades, with the recent experimental indication of a correlated free four-neutron system making this an exceptionally timely and exciting topic. The joint MITP/ICTP-SAIFR workshop on Multineutron Clusters in Nuclei and Stars aims to bring together the theoretical and experimental communities working on clusterization close to the neutron drip  line. The workshop’s objectives include advancing our understanding of fundamental nuclear processes, exploring their applications in astrophysics, and fostering international collaborations. Additionally, the event seeks to nurture the next generation of physicists by inspiring and equipping them to contribute to this dynamic field.
