Introduction

The international workshop on hadron physics, which is held as a pre-workshop of QNP2018, will take place at KEK Tokai campus in November. This workshop will be focused on hadron physics at finite density. The main topics will be "Hadrons and resonances in nuclei/matter", "Strangeness and charm in nuclei/matter" and "Cold and dense matter equation of state". In addition, hadron physics conducted at J-PARC and related issues will be discussed.

Travel information

* Workshop venue:
KEK Tokai campus, Tokai 1st building, Room 116

* Narita & Haneda airports, and JR Tokyo station ↔ Nearest bus stop "Genken-mae."
Please see the following website, "Access".

* Time tables
1. JR train (Tokyo terminal ↔ Tokai station)
2. Local bus [Tokai station ↔ J-PARC (Genken-mae)]
3. Limousine bus (Narita, Haneda)

* Transportation to Tsukuba for QNP2018
We will charter a bus to move directly from the workshop site to the center of Tsukuba. Using our chartered bus is the BEST AND MOST CONVENIENT way to move to Tsukuba, because public transportation from Tokai to Tsukuba is complicated and takes time.
We strongly recommend you to use this bus.

The bus will depart the workshop site after the last session of the workshop. It will take about 90 minutes from Tokai to Tsukuba. The fee is about 2,000~3,000 yen, depending on the number of people using the bus. More details will be announced in the next circular.

* Accommodation
We have booked rooms in the KEK Tokai dormitory during the period of the workshop,
which are close to the conference site.

KEK Tokai dormitory (Booked 30 rooms, right beside the workshop site, 2500 yen/night)

If you want to stay at the dormitory, please send us the registration form.

NOTICE: If all the booked rooms in the KEK Tokai dormitory are filled,
we will ask you to reserve a room in the dormitory or other hotel by yourself.
