This 4.5 day training course will be taught in English by the MCNP development team, from the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL).

This 4.5 day intermediate class is designed for people who have some experience in running MCNP Monte Carlo calculations, but would like to refresh or advance their skills.

This 4.5 day training course will be taught in English by the MCNP development team, from the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL).

This class introduces the unstructured mesh capability in MCNP6 and the Attila4MC problem-setup Graphical User Interface (GUI) from Silver Fir Software and then proceeds with advanced topics. In this class, the participant will learn how to take 3-D geometries developed using CAD software, import these CAD geometries into Attila4MC, mesh the geometry, setup the entire MCNP6 input file with the GUI, and run the calculation using the MCNP6 unstructured mesh capability.

TWoFCS 2026 is an international workshop that brings together experts researching nuclear and fuel cycle strategies based on numerical analysis. Since the first workshop held in 2016, six workshops have been conducted to date. In 2026, Japan will serve as the host. TWoFCS2026 will be jointly held with NuMBAC, Japan's nuclear fuel cycle simulation research community and workshop. NuMBAC has evolved to incorporate not only traditional technical perspectives of nuclear fuel cycle simulation but also social science perspectives such as economics and sociology. By jointly hosting TWoFCS and NuMBAC, we aim to stimulate interdisciplinary discussions toward the advancement of nuclear fuel cycles in the future, going beyond conventional technical discussions.

The Galactic Center (GC) plays a pivotal role in the evolution of the Milky Way. It is instrumental in mapping and understanding the central regions of quiescent galaxies since it is the closest galactic nucleus to us. It serves as a unique test bed for both stellar dynamics in an extremely dense environment as well as magnetohydrodynamics in the vicinity of the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*). It is fundamental for studying star formation, because the conditions of its interstellar medium (magnetic fields, temperature, turbulence) are unlike any other place in the Milky Way. Despite many detailed multiwavelength studies of the central regions of our Galaxy, we still have many open questions concerning its history and future evolution. This symposium will bring together experts working on both observational and theoretical studies of the Galactic Center so that they can “traverse” this exciting region from Sgr A* and the surrounding dense nuclear star cluster to the central molecular zone and back, covering about eight orders of magnitude in spatial length. Looking at the Galactic nucleus from this vantage point will uncover details of its past processes and potential future. We will explore the remarkable progress made since the last major meeting of the community—the Galactic Center Workshop in Granada (April 24–28, 2023). We will examine exciting new results, including those from JWST and GRAVITY/ERIS at the VLT, as well as insights from ALMA and MeerKAT.

This workshop aims to bring together researchers from diverse fields of applied mathematics to explore the critical role of variational methods in both physical sciences and data sciences. Variational problems are fundamental in modeling natural phenomena and optimizing complex systems. This interdisciplinary workshop will focus on the latest advances in the analysis of physical problems, mathematical aspects of data science, optimization techniques, and computational mathematics, and at the same time celebrate the important contributions of Rustum Choksi at the occasion of his 60th birthday. By bringing together a diverse group of scholars, the workshop will also create a venue for new research directions, innovative solutions, and enhanced computational methods.

The workshop will focus on mathematical modelling for behaviour, with three main themes: (i) Abstraction of real-world systems into mathematical models: (ii) Societal response to policy; (iii) Data needs. Much of the workshop will consist of invited and contributed research talks, and we will hold dynamic panel-based discussion sessions around key topics including engagement with government and public communication of modelling. Another key topic for discussion during the workshop will be the international vision for the research area. This workshop will take a global perspective, seeking to develop a roadmap for how the discipline can develop in the medium- and long-term. The strong interdisciplinary focus will aptly position workshop attendees to help steer the future development of the maths of human behaviour as a research area (with interdisciplinarity, internationalism and impact at the forefront).
