Welcome to the Institute for Nuclear Theory (INT)

The Institute for Nuclear Theory, a national resource funded by the US Department of Energy and the University of Washington, provides an environment for scientists to advance the frontiers of subatomic physics. Scientific meetings at the INT attract hundreds of visitors annually from around the world to hasten breakthrough discoveries through collaborations.

May 12 - June 20, 2025

Precision QCD with the Electron Ion Collider (25-1)

R. Fatemi, H.-W. Lin, W. Vogelsang

The goal of our program is to identify the outstanding problems and the progress to be made, to facilitate work toward advancing EIC theory, and to forge new collaborations and alliances that will tackle the challenges.

June 2-6, 2025

Bridging Theory and Experiment at the Electron-Ion Collider (25-93W)

A. Bacchetta, W. Cosyn, F. Ringer, A. Stasto

This workshop will be an ideal place to support the EIC community and provide guidance for future efforts on both the experimental and theoretical side.

June 23 - July 25, 2025

Compressible Turbulence: From Cold Atoms to Neutron Star Mergers

A. Bulgac, G. Eyink, M. Forbes, N. Navon

Turbulence in compressible fluids is at the forefront of current hydrodynamic research with applications that include supersonic flight, combustion, fusion, ultra-cold atoms, and nuclear astrophysics.

September 2-26, 2025

From Colliders to the Cosmos: Exploring the Extremes of Matter with Experiment and Astrophysical Observation (25-2b)

N. Andersson, C. Ratti, B. Sathyaprakash

Neutron star mergers are unique laboratories of extreme astrophysics.

September 8-12, 2025

Nuclear Physics in Mergers - Going Beyond the Equation of State (25-94W)

A. Haber, E. Most, C. Raithel

This workshop will bring together different areas of nuclear physics, astrophysics, and gravitational theory to discuss the necessary steps and advances required for us to fully leverage the opportunities posed by multi-messenger gravitational astronomy in the coming years and beyond.

INTURN

Institute for Nuclear Theory Undergraduate Research Network

The Institute for Nuclear Theory (INT) at the University of Washington (UW) is offering opportunities for undergraduate research in nuclear physics in the spring quarter of 2025. This INT Undergraduate Research Network (INTURN) program hosts undergraduate students interested in pursuing research in nuclear theory and taking steps toward a career in physics.
