The 4th South Africa–JINR Symposium “Few to Many Body Systems: Models, Methods and Applications” was organized by the Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in the period September 21–25, 2015. It was dedicated to the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the JINR and 10th anniversary of signing the Memorandum of Understanding between the Government of the Republic of South Africa and the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research. The Symposium discussed the scope, success and perspectives of experimental, theoretical and applied physics at the JINR and in South Africa institutions. Special attention was devoted to scientific facilities on both sides. The goal of the meeting was to present main results of the SA–JINR collaboration, to extend the scientific and technological cooperation among the JINR and South Africa institutions, and to attract young scientists from both sides to running joint research projects. The Symposium program covered new developments in the field of particle physics, nuclear physics, applied nuclear physics, condensed matter physics, bio-monitoring project and physics of underground laboratories. The Symposium initiated opportunities to establish new areas of scientific cooperation and to extend the existing cooperation among physicists from South Africa and the JINR.
The financial support was provided by the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research and the National Research Foundation of South Africa.
