The prize is given every two years for outstanding work in the fields of experimental, theoretical or applied nuclear science and Prof. Walker has been awarded the prize for seminal contributions to the understanding of long-lived nuclear excited “isomeric” states and the factors that determine their half-lives, that range from nanoseconds to years.

This magnificent building, dating from the 16th century, was the first headquarters of the University of Santiago de Compostela.
The celebration program will be completed with a performance of an outreach activity sponsored by the IGFAE, Hamamatsu Photonics Spain and NPD-EPS.
