Astronomers and physicists to probe strong nuclear interaction from all angles

A mostly Dutch consortium of astronomers and physicists are going to probe the strong nuclear interaction from all angles in the coming 5 years. They have been awarded a 3.1 million euro grant to hire 10 young researchers working at the intersection between theoretical and experimental particle physics, nuclear physics astrophysics and astronomy. The project will be led by astrophysicist Anna Watts of the Anton Pannekoek Institute of the University of Amsterdam.
