News and Announcements

The INT congratulates Agnieszka Sorensen, a former INT Postdoctoral Fellow, on receiving a prestigious NSF Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Award.

Sorensen, now an Assistant Professor at Michigan State University and FRIB, received the award for her project, “Microscopic Transport, Machine Learning, and Bayesian Analysis for Extracting the Dense Nuclear Matter Equation of State from Heavy-Ion Collisions at RHIC and FRIB.” Her research combines theoretical modeling of heavy-ion collisions with modern machine-learning and Bayesian methods to constrain the properties of dense nuclear matter.

The CAREER Award recognizes outstanding early-career faculty and supports the integration of innovative research and education. The INT is delighted to see Agnieszka’s contributions to nuclear theory recognized with this honor and congratulates her on this achievement.

The 'Quantum Algorithms in the Fault Tolerant Era' event, sponsored by IQuS, takes place September 14-25, 2026. Visit the event webpage for more information.

The workshop talk schedule for INT-26-2b, "The Quantum Physics of Stars" is now available to view here: https://www.int.washington.edu/program/schedule/1858/1

That's a wrap on the 2026 National Nuclear Physics Summer School! 🎉

Students from across the U.S. and around the world came to Seattle for two weeks of immersive learning, collaboration, and discovery in experimental and theoretical nuclear physics.

The program included multiple social activities, including a facility tour of CENPA, a visit to the Museum of Flight, a visit to Discovery Park, and a trip to Bainbridge Island.

A huge thank you to our guest lecturers, organizers, and administrative staff for making this year's summer camp a huge success!

The program INT-26-2a, "Recommended Values for Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay Nuclear Matrix Elements" is now available
