The Symposium program will cover new experimental and theoretical developments in the field of nuclear physics, applied nuclear physics, condensed matter physics and physics of underground laboratories in the context of the South Africa - JINR collaboration.

Main topics:

• Dense matter in heavy ion collisions and astrophysics
• Nuclear reactions, beams and facilities, techniques and applications
• Nuclear structure, clusters, modern microscopical methods
• Physics of few-body, atomic and molecular systems
• Computational and mathematical methods in many-body physics
• Nonlinear phenomena in condensed matter
• Towards the underground laboratory and particle astrophysics
