European Nuclear Science and Applications
Research (ENSAR)
At the NuPECC meeting in München on 22-23 June
2007 Alex Mueller informed NuPECC that many LoIs
have been submitted, much more than can be
accommodated in an I3 application 13 LoI for
Trans-national Access facilities 38 LoI for
Joint Research Activities 23 LoI for Network
ActivitiesAdvisory Group was establishedBrian

Towards a new I3 proposal of the European
nuclear structure community
Organisation Committee of Joint EURONS-EURISOL
meeting asked the community and funding agencies
to suggest names of the Chairperson/Coordinator
and members of Scientific Steering Committee
(SSC) of new I3 ENSAR (European Nuclear Science
and Applications Research)? Helsinki Town
Meeting 17-20 September ? Compromise between
efficiency and representationAngela Bracco,

SSC Scientific Steering Committee

• Select activities suitable for the next European
  nuclear structure Integrating Activity proposal
  in FP7
• Shape structure and scope of the class of
  activities
• Follow NuPECC recommendation  SSC should use as
  their criteria for selecting JRAs the
  following  (1) clear focus on improving
  performance or adding new            
  capabilities to the TNA facilities
• (2) benefit a number of the facilities
• (3) have fairly wide support, capitalising on
  the              expertise of a number of
  groups.
• Start as soon as possible
• End

• Meeting in Brussels on 3rd October
• Call on 30 November 2007 submission on 29
  February 2008
• Tough competition budget 3- 10 M large
  community ? 15 M
• No recommendation on budget sharing TNA, JRA, NA
• DAF difficult as TNA. Try JRA or NA
• Interdisciplinary activities work positively
• ICT facilities as TNA in ENSA I3 are not
  advantageous
