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.
Welcome to the Institute for Nuclear Theory (INT)
INT Fact Sheet
The National Institute for Nuclear Theory (INT) was established in 1990 by the US Department of Energy and is based at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington.

Quantum Few- and Many-Body Systems in Universal Regimes
Few-body science is a vibrant and fertile ground for the development of quantum information technologies and the application of emerging quantum computing and quantum simulation platforms to the simulation of microscopic systems.
Discovering Continuous GW with Nuclear, Astro and Particle Physics
The opening of the gravitational wave sky is an historic time. LIGO has detected transient signals from merging black holes and neutron stars.
Baryon Number Violation: From Nuclear Matrix Elements to BSM Physics (25-91W)
Baryon number violation is required to generate the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Universe as one of the Sakharov conditions, but has never been experimentally observed.
INTURN
The Institute for Nuclear Theory (INT) at the University of Washington (UW) is offering opportunities for undergraduate research in nuclear physics starting in the spring quarter of 2024. This INT Undergraduate Research Network (INTURN) program will host undergraduate students interested in pursuing research in nuclear theory and taking steps toward a career in physics.
Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU)
The REU Physics program at the University of Washington differs from some others in that it covers most subfields of physics. All of the major groups in the department are participating: astrophysics and cosmology, atomic physics, condensed matter physics, nuclear physics, particle physics, physics education, biological physics, and computational physics.
