Currently, INPAC focuses on studies in four major areas of physics: Nuclear Physics Particle Physics Astronomy Cosmology Nuclear Physics: Nuclear Structure Theory Heavy Ion Collisions and EOS of Strongly Interacting Matter Particle Physics: Quantum Chromodynamics Dark Matter and Dark Energy Beta decay Neutrino Physics Astronomy: Multi-band Study of Galaxies and Galaxy Clusters Low Frequency Radio Experiment and Observation High Energy Astrophysics & Radiation Mechanisms in Astrophysics Cosmology: Dark Matter and

The Institute of Nuclear and Particle Physics (INPAC) at Shanghai Jiao Tong University was established in Feb. 2009. It is an important milestone for SJTU to re-establish its strong research program in fundamental science. INPAC now has twenty faculty members working on diverse areas of fundamental research, including nuclear theory, particle theory, particle and nuclear experiment, astrophysiscs and cosmology.
