Abstract: With anomalously large s-wave scattering length, low-energy neutrons are approximately described by a nonrelativistic conformal field theory. I will describe a few aspects of nuclear physics related this fact. In particular, I will discuss universal properties of two-neutron halo nuclei and scattering processes involving the production of several neutrons in the final state ("unnuclear physics").
