On March 13, 2014, the workshop "Frontiers of Hadronic Physics:
Brains Recirculate Two" was held at the Brookhaven National Lab. (BNL)
located in Long Island, New York. This is a second workshop
supported by the "JSPS Strategic Young Researcher Overseas Visits
Program for Accelerating Brain Circulation" under which
we can send posdocs and students from RIKEN to BNL as long term
(more than 300 days) or short term visitors between 2013 through 2015.
I (Tetsuo Hatsuda) is a frequent visitor to the phys. dep. of BNL since
90's,
and visited BNL this time as a PI of this program.
As you may know, BNL was established in 1947 originally to pursue
basic an applied researches on nuclear physics, but is now expanded
to high energy physics, nano science, chemistry, environmental science,
life science and computational science.
In physics, BNL is the well-known
place for the discovery of elementary particles (such as the muon neutrino,
the K meson, the Omega baryon, the J/Psi, etc), for the discovery of
fundamental laws of nature (such as the parity violation and the CP
violation)
and for the discovery of extreme state of matter (such as the quark-gluon
plasma). BNL has so far produced seven Nobel prizes.
The photo is the "Interdisciplinary Science Building (ISB) " for
Energy Research in BNL just opened in April 11, 2013 next to the
physics building. Isn't it wonderful if we can have a RIKEN
iTHES building with this size?

Person of the Week
Emiko Hiyama
Self-introduction
I am Emiko Hiyama, an associate chief scientist of strangeness nuclear physics laboratory. After I obtained PhD at Kyushu Univ. in 1998, I moved to RIKEN as a PD. And after PD, I was an associate researcher. And I moved to Nara Women’s Univ. in 2004 and spent 4 four years there. In 2008, I moved to RIKEN. My research is to develop calculation method for few-body problem named by Gaussian Expansion Method which has been proposed some 30 years ago. This method is one of powerful method which is applicable to various fields such as atomic physics, hypernuclear physics, nuclear physics of unstable nuclei etc. Now, iTHES project has being run to develop science among physics, biology, and chemistry etc. I am quite interested in applying our own method to such field including physics.
