OMPUTATIONAL AND GROUP-THEORETICAL METHODS IN NUCLEAR PHYSICS
Proceedings of the Symposium in Honor of Jerry P Draayer's 60th Birthday
Playa del Carmen, Mexico 18 - 21 February 2003

edited by Jutta Escher (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, USA), Octavio Castaños, Jorge G Hirsch (Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Mexico), Stuart Pittel (University of Delaware, USA) & Gergana Stoitcheva (Oak Ridge National Laboratory, USA)

The symposium "Computational and Group-Theoretical Methods in Nuclear Physics" was organized to celebrate the 60th birthday of Jerry P Draayer, who is Professor of Physics, Lousiana State University, and President of the Southeastern Universities Research Association (SURA). The focus of the meeting was on computational and algebraic approaches to the nuclear many-body problem. The presentations highlighted recent experimental and theoretical developments in nuclear structure physics.
