Objectives
    Founded in 1997, the Egyptian Nuclear Physics Association ,a non governmental not-for-profit organization, is to offer scientific and cultural services in the field of Nuclear Physics and Related Activities, namely:
- to follow scientific progress in the field of nuclear physics and related activities, and to enhance the national knowledge in this field.
- to publish a scientific periodical for research and development under the title: Journal of Nuclear and Radiation Physics.
- to suggest and provide services and consultation in its field of activity (FOA).
- adoption of scientific terminology and translation of scientific material into Arabic.
- to issue a popular scientific magazine in Arabic.
- issuing of non periodic publications in Association's FOA.
- to establish a national data base in nuclear physics and related activities.
- conducting conferences, seminars, symposia, workshops, training courses,  exhibitions, cultural events, and so forth in Association's FOA.
- to enhance cooperation between Arab scientists interested in Association's activities aiming to establish
the Pan-Arab Nuclear Physics Association.
- to establish regional and international contacts and cooperation with similar organizations.
Activities
Conferences:
     One of the major activities of ENPA is to organize
Nuclear and Particle Physics Conference (NUPPAC)
The NUPPAC conference is a biennial event dedicated to the progress in experimental and theoretical nuclear and particle physics, and to follow the evolution of the recent developments in these subjects. ENPA had organized seven such conferences in scientific collaboration of the Egyptian Atomic Energy Authority:
- NUPPAC' 97       in Cairo
- NUPPAC' 99       in Cairo
- NUPPAC' 01       in Giza
- NUPPAC' 03       in El-Fayoum
- NUPPAC' 05       in Cairo
- NUPPAC' 07       in Luxor
- NUPPAC' 09       in Sharm el-Sheikh
- NUPPAC' 11       in Hurghada		 15-19 Nov. 1997
13-17 Nov. 1999
20-24 Oct. 2001
11-15 Oct. 2003
19-23 Nov. 2005
17-21 Nov. 2007
11-15 Nov. 2009
20-24 Nov. 2011
    ENPA is planning to organize its 9th Conference on Nuclear and Particle Physics  (NUPPAC' 13) in Aswan, Egypt, Oct.-Nov. 2013.

    With the increasing concern towards environmental problems, and the role physics can do in monitoring, analysing, and understanding environmental phenomena, ENPA is engaged in organizing

Environmental Physics Conference (EPC)
From that prespective ENPA had organized:
EPC' 04                in El-Minya
EPC' 06                in Alexandria
EPC' 08                in Aswan
EPC' 10                in Hurghada 		 24-28 Feb. 2004 
18-22 Feb. 2006
19-23 Feb. 2008
10-14 Mar. 2010
    ENPA is planning to organize its 5th Environmental Physics Conference (EPC' 12) in Cairo, 24-27 Sept. 2012.

    ENPA is a co-organizer of the second all african IRPA congress helt in Ismailya, Egypt, 23-27 April 2007.
