Connecting Vietnamese students with leading scientists in physics

These two schools are organized annually by the Vietnam Rencontres Association and ICISE Center to create conditions for Vietnamese students to study and experience research with international students and leading scientists in the research field according to the topic of each class.

Professor Tran Thanh Van, Chairman of the Rencontres du Vietnam, delivered the opening speech at the 8th Vietnam School of Neutrinos.

Of which, the 8th Vietnam School of Neutrinos (VSON8) took place from July 15 to 26, with the participation of 32 scientists, researchers and students from Japan, China, India, Italy, UK and Vietnam.

VSON8 students will be provided with knowledge of particle physics and neutrino physics; basic principles and modern techniques for their detection; ongoing and upcoming neutrino projects as well as scientific discoveries that can be achieved with these experiments. In addition, students will also learn specific skills such as: running simulations of neutrino interactions; classifying interactions through images obtained from the Super-Kamiokande detector (an experiment that directly contributed to the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physics); directly operating, observing and measuring with a simple cosmic ray measurement system designed by the neutrino physics research group at ICISE.

According to Professor Tran Thanh Van, Chairman of the Rencontres du Vietnam, the main goal of VSON is to provide students with a solid foundation in neutrinos to develop human resources for Vietnamese researchers in this field.

The 30th Vietnam School of Physics (VSOP 30) took place from July 15-26, attracting 34 scientists and researchers from 13 countries and territories.

This school was established in 1994. This is a place that creates conditions for Vietnamese students to study and experience research with international students and leading scientists; have the opportunity to seek doctoral and post-doctoral research scholarships at advanced universities and research institutes in the world, contributing to strengthening the basic physics research force in Vietnam.
