<Scope>

Since Aug 2017, following the first detection of GW from
an NS-NS merger, understanding on NS mergers as origin of
r-process nuclei has been progressing. The observation of
“kilonova/macronova” tells us detailed physical properties
on the r-process production site. The impacts are not limited
in nucleosynthesis studies, seeking the cosmic origin of “gold.”
It expands into a broader range of astrophysics related
to stellar evolution and explosions, compact objects
and evolution of galaxies.

In this Workshop, the 3rd revision of “r-process Workshop series”
started from 2018, we will focus on the evolution of galaxies
as well as on stellar r-process nucleosynthesis. Together with
the world-leading researchers from several disciplines,
including observational and theoretical astrophysics,
we discuss several aspects of the nucleosynthesis and
galactic evolution. Fundamental physical processes of
nucleosynthesis are also discussed.

<Theme>
– cosmic nucleosynthesis
– stellar evolution and supernovae
– high-energy astrophysics
– formation and evolution of galaxies
– nuclear astrophysics
– database (nuclear date, stellar abundance data etc.)
