1. At this meeting two main issues:  Important building blocks of our long range plan: Facilities with which to address the relevant key scientific questions in Nuclear science Attract more EU fundings and strengthen the agreements and collaboration programs with FA (via IA EU projects)  Messages and relevant inputs to pass to the working groups (through the NuPECC liasons) Examples: This is a consolidating long range plan needed to express and comunicate in a coherent way the strong need to complete the major research infrastructures Increase our visibility at Ministry level by adding our infrastructures in the ESFRI list ……..

3. Planned Scheme (from the mail by the conveners) WG1 Planning of the work in good shape 1. Introduction 2. Theoretical framework/progress 3. Hadron Spectroscopy subtopics: mesons, baryons, quarkonium, open flavor, exotics Recent achievements/state of the art/open problems European perspective Global perspective 4.Hadron Structure subtopics: Form factors, Parton distributions, TMDs, GPDs... Recent achievements/state of the art/open problems European perspective Global perspective 5. Hadronic interactions subtopics: hyperon spin physics, hypernuclei... Recent achievements/state of the art/open problems European perspective Global perspective 6. Recommendations 3.

5. WG2 - Properties of Strong-Interaction Matter We are preparing the first meeting of the Working Group 2, which will happen most probably on February 4. We plan to structure the work in the following way: - in the first meeting (remote) we plan to have first discussions, collect suggestions about what everyone is ready to work on. - FEB/MARCH 2016: next meeting to collect the input from everybody and produce a skeleton of our chapter (such that it becomes visible what are the topics we will deal with) - APRIL/MAY 2016: produce a first version with contributions from everybody (non-uniform document, but all sections in place). A physical 1-2 days meeting may be useful at this stage. -SUMMER: completion and polishing of text

7. WG3 Nuclear structure (Alexandre Obertelli) with AB,AG,CD,ZD,BF,CF,MG,PG,SG,AJ,AK,NK,SL,AM,AO,NP,KR,AS,CS,CU Nuclear reactions (Antonio Moro) with AK,AM,SS,CU EoS investigation (Giuseppe Verde) with CF,MG,SL,NK,AS,CU,GV Theory (Christian Forssen and Achim Schwenk) with CF,AG,AM,AS Facilities and instrumentation (Stéphane Grevy) with SG,NK,SL,KR,CS,SS,CU,GV WG3 members can belong to several subgroups, in order to facilitate discussion between the subgroups. The overlap with other NuPECC WG’s has also been raised, such as for instance nuclear structure for fundamental interactions. The way the final WG3 document shall be written is left open (introduction and chapters). For instance, it may be that once key questions have emerged from subgroups, we could Schedule and actions : ------------------------------ February: a possible in person (or phone) meeting in ECT* could be organised for the whole WG3
