Nuclear physics in stellar explosions

Invitation

As a continuation of the effort of the ATOMKI astrophysics group to bring together the experts from different fields with relevance to nuclear astrophysics a thematic workshop is organized in 2018.

About 50% of the chemical elements heavier than iron are synthesized in stellar explosions (in the r-process, rp-process and γ-process). The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers working in the field of explosive nucleosynthesis.
The workshop covers a wide range of topics:

The meeting will be a three-day event last at Institute for Nuclear Research (MTA Atomki) of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences divided into eight sessions, each including an invited presentation and contributed talks.
The registration fee is 150 Eur. It will cover coffee breaks, meals and conference materials. No proceeding of the workshop will be published. The presentations of the speeches will, however be posted to the website of the workshop upon permission of the speakers. The number of participant will be limited to 60 persons, we would like to give the possibility for everybody to present his/her work.
The deadline of the registration and abstract submission is 30th July 2018. The program will be finalized by 15th August, 2018.

If you have any question or would like to get the newest information about our workshop, do not hesitate to contact the local organizing committee:

Venue

The workshop will be held in Debrecen, Hungary at Atomki (Institute for Nuclear Research of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences). The map of Atomki showing the location of the lecture hall can be seen here.

Accomodations
Booking in these hotels can be done either thought their webpages or by using e.g. booking.com. A limited number of rooms in the guesthouse of Atomki are also available, in case you are willing to stay in one of these rooms, please contact the organizers.

   Hotel Óbester (~70 Euro / night)

Travel information

The town of Debrecen has a small airport Debrecen Airport, DEB with only a few international connections. The hungarian owned low-cost flight company Wizzair use it as its home-base airport and also the Lufthansa has a daily-base connection to Munich Airport.
Participants are more likely to arrive at the Budapest Airport, BUD. There are different ways of reaching the workshop site from there:

Shuttle bus
Probably the most convenient way is to use an airport shuttle service which provides a door-to-door transfer from the airport to your hotel. The service must be pre-booked. Booking can be done at the Agora TransFair's Web page. The price of the transfer for two ways is about 20.000 HUF which must be paid in cash (Hungarian Forints) to the driver. If you prefer, the workshop organizers can help you booking the transfer. Note, that the shuttle minibus collects several passengers, so some delay in departure can be expected.

Train
Take the public bus No. 200E from outside the ground level of the airport towards Budapest Kőbánya-Kispest station. Bus ticket can be purchased from the machines at the bus stop or from the driver. Get off at the 4th stop called Ferihegy vasútállomás (Ferihegy Railway Station). The railway station is just on the opposite side of the street, having direct train connection to Debrecen. We recommend using InterCity trains. A timetable can be found here. Tickets can be purchased at the station from the ticket machine.

Car
Car rental is possible at the Budapest Airport on the Hertz desk from 8 am till midnight.

About the city of Debrecen

Debrecen is one of the most vivid and coziest nooks in Hungary: this city is a unique and outstanding whirlpool of a dynamic cultural and intellectual heritage and of an effective and successful economic life. The centuries' old traditions and the most recent technical and scientific innovations enhancing each other make Debrecen a nationally and internationally renowned city. More information you can find here.

Useful information

Electricity
The electricity is 230 V, 50 Hz. Japanese, UK, USA and other visitors: please note that in Hungary Continental European German-style CEE7/4 sockets ("Schuko sockets") are used, which also accepts CEE7/16 "Europlugs".

Foreign exchange, banking facilities
The official national Hungarian currency is the Hungarian Forint (HUF). All the major credit cards are accepted in Hungary in places displaying the emblem at the entrance. Though Hungary is a member of the European Union, only a few shops and restaurants accept Euros (EUR) for payment. Currency exchange booths are available in Budapest at the airport terminals, railway stations, travel agencies, banks and various places in the city. The exchange rates applied may vary. Click here to see the actual official exchange rates. Traveller's cheques and convertible currency may be exchanged at these facilities. Major credit cards are usually accepted in most hotels, restaurants and certain shops in the city. Obtaining cash against ATM or credit cards is very easy from the ATM cash machines that can be found at almost each bank office, hotel or on the street.

Telephone
The international code for Hungary is 36, the area code for Budapest is 1. To call a number within Hungary, first dial 06. Budapest telephone numbers have seven digits, all other areas have six digits (in addition to the area codes). To make an international call from Hungary, first dial 00, then the country code followed by the area code and the subscriber's telephone number. To call a (Hungarian) mobile phone, from a public telephone first dial 06, followed by the subscriber's seven-digit number starting with 20-, 30- or 70-.

Important phone numbers
Central help number: 112
General enquiries: 197
Inland enquiries: 198
International enquiries: 199

Time
Hungary is in the Central European Time Zone. In september clocks are set at GMT + 2 hours.

Weather
The weather in Hungary in September is usually sunny. Temperatures are usually in the range between 15 and 25°C during the day. Check the weather forecast for Debrecen at yahoo, or at weather.com. For other regions of Hungary check this portal.
