13TH INTERNATIONAL SPRING SEMINAR ON NUCLEAR PHYSICS PERSPECTIVES AND CHALLENGES IN NUCLEAR STRUCTURE AFTER 70 YEARS OF SHELL MODEL18 - 22 May 2020, Serrara Fontana, Italy

This Seminar is the thirteenth in a series of topical meetings started in 1986 on the initiative of Aldo Covello. The main aim of the Seminar is to focus on the progress made in recent years from both a theoretical and experimental point of view as well as on the role that nuclear structure may play in the context of fundamental physics.

The Seminar will maintain the general spirit and intent of the ear-lier meetings of this series by providing to a group of researchers

the opportunity to discuss their current work and confront their opinions.

Main topics

• Advanced methods for nuclear structure studies• NuclearstructuresstudiesthroughRIBexperiments• Nuclear structure & fundamental physics• Special topics
