About N3AS
The Network for Neutrinos, Nuclear Astrophysics, and Symmetries (N3AS) is a multi-institutional collaboration dedicated to recruiting and training postdoctoral researchers interested in neutrino physics and astrophysics, nuclear astrophysics topics ranging from supernova and neutron star modeling to dark matter, and fundamental symmetries. The collaboration is funded by the National Science Foundation and the Heising-Simons Foundation.
Our network fosters diversity, equity, and inclusion. We welcome scientists of all identities and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for individuals of underrepresented backgrounds.

Oscillations of Highly Magnetized Non-Rotating Neutron Stars
Neutron stars are probably the most compact and extreme magnetised astrophysical objects in the universe. These stars are the composite of the most extreme physics within only a few kilometres in diameter.
