DESCRIPTION:2nd South Africa-Joint Institute of Nuclear Research Workshop 
 on Theory and Computation\n\nNelson Mandela University\nSummerstrand South
  Campus\, Gqeberha\, South Africa\nDecember 5-8\, 2023\n \n\nBackground\n
 \nIn 2005\, the Republic of South Africa (RSA) and the Russian Federation 
 (RF) signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) that led to South Africa becom
 ing an associate member of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR)
 . The agreement enables collaborations between the JINR scientists and res
 earchers based in South African universities and research institutions. Cu
 rrently\, scientists from the RSA participate in various themes of the Top
 ical Plan for JINR Research and International Cooperation associated with 
 activities of all laboratories of the JINR. It covers the subjects of theo
 retical and experimental particle and nuclear physics\, astrophysics and c
 osmology\, condense matter physics\, experimental research in the field of
  relativistic nuclear physics\, synthesis and properties of nuclei at the 
 stability limits\, accelerator complex of ion beams of stable and radioact
 ive nuclides\, investigations in the field of nuclear physics with neutron
 s\, investigations of condensed matter by modern neutron scattering method
 s\, computational physics\, educational program etc.\n\nOn the initiative 
 of the JINR and South African institutions\, the first South Africa-JINR w
 orkshop was held in Franschhoek in January 2020. The 2nd South Africa-JINR
  Theory Workshop will be held at the Summerstrand South Campus of Nelson M
 andela University in Gqeberha during the period December 5-8\, 2023. The w
 orkshop will include plenary and discussion sessions to forge collaboratio
 ns on topics in theoretical and computation physics. It is believed that t
 he workshop will initiate opportunities to strengthen existing collaborati
 ons and establish new areas in the scientific cooperation among physicists
  from South Africa and the JINR. \n\nWorkshop Topics\n\n\n	Nuclear Structu
