Meet Us at the International Symposium Commemorating the 40th Anniversary of the Halo Nuclei (HALO-40), 12–18 October 2025, Beijing, China

Conference: International Symposium Commemorating the 40^th Anniversary of the Halo Nuclei
Date: 12–18 October 2025
Location: Beijing, China

The International Symposium Commemorating the 40^th Anniversary of the Halo Nuclei (HALO-40) will be held in Beijing from October 12 to 18, 2025, and follows the highly successful 30^th Anniversary Symposium held in 2015. It aims to celebrate four decades of scientific progress since the pioneering proposal of the neutron halo concept in 1987, a breakthrough initially inspired by the experimental discovery of anomalously large interaction cross-sections of ¹¹Li in 1985.

This symposium will garner experts from across the globe to discuss the latest advancements and future directions in the study of halo nuclei and related topics. The main topics that will covered include the following:

Halo nuclei;
Nuclear structures approaching the dripline;
Reaction dynamics for exotic nuclei;
Advanced nuclear models for exotic nuclei;
Interdisciplinary frontiers related to exotic nuclei;
Facilities and instruments for exotic nuclei.

MDPI will be attending the International Symposium Commemorating the 40^th Anniversary of the Halo Nuclei as an exhibitor. We welcome researchers from different backgrounds to visit and share their latest ideas with us.

The following MDPI journals will be represented:
