ANPhA 2025 - The 2025 Asian Nuclear Physics Association (ANPhA) board meeting & the ANPhA symposium on nuclear physics facilities in Asia
Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica
The Asian Nuclear Physics Association (ANPhA) fosters collaboration among nuclear physicists in Asia by promoting the shared use of existing research facilities, facilitating academic exchanges, and coordinating future plans for nuclear science infrastructure in the region. Since 2010, ANPhA has hosted annual board meetings and symposiums across its member countries and regions.
The 2025 ANPhA Meeting and Symposium will take place at the Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica, in Taipei from November 27 to 29, 2025. The event will begin with the ANPhA Board Meeting and a tour of a nuclear physics-related facility on November 27, followed by a two-day symposium. In addition to ANPhA board members and observers, we warmly invite nuclear physicists to join the symposium and share their latest research.

Study of neutron star property based on Parity-Doublet-Models
I will summarize our recent works in which we studied neutron star property based on Parity Doublet Models. In the low-density region, we construct the EoS using hadronic models based on the parity doublet structure with the chiral invariant mass of nucleons. In the high density region, the EoS is obtained in an NJL-type quark model. By connecting two EoSs with assuming the quark-hadron crossover or first order phase transition, we construct unified EoSs for dense matter. We then derive the M-R relation of neutron stars from the unified EoSs and compare the result with the observational constraints to obtain an allowed range for the chiral invariant mass.

Coexistence of different structures for hadrons; the case of the low-lying Ωc baryons
We perform a systematic analysis of the low-lying Ωc structures in a coupled-channel approach of different structures, compact 3-quark structures and extended hadronic molecule structures. Our coupled channel methods explains naturally the observed Ωc's by LHCb including a threshold enhancement and a broad bump in the higher energy region.
