The High Energy/Cosmology Journal Club
Fridays, 2:15 pm, HIP Lecture Room A315
General
The seminar is at 14.15 (2:15 pm) after the HIP coffee. We will meet on
the average every other week or so, depending on the general
interest. Please feel free to suggest new titles, to be presented either by
you or by somebody else. Such suggestions are always greeted with great
gratitude by the organizer.
Old program
Purpose
To talk about particle physics, cosmology, astrophysics, and especially the
interface between these.
The idea is to have an informal research seminar, like the preceding
seminars organized by Martin S. Sloth, Antti Sorri, Janne Ignatius, and
Juha Peltoniemi. Recent work, work in preparation, news from a conference
or elsewhere, an interesting e-print or journal article - all are suitable
subjects for a seminar.
Everybody is welcome to participate, and that includes students!
Forthcoming seminars will be announced by e-mail. If you wish to be
included in the e-mail list, or think that somebody else should be
included, please use the contact information.
Guidelines
The recommended duration of presentations is 30-45 minutes. The usage of
chalk and blackboard is strongly preferred. Speakers should give a general
introduction. Probably the audience will be happier if the speaker
concentrates more in presenting the physical ideas than the technical
details. The audience is encouraged to interrupt with questions and make
comments.
Coffee and cookies
Coffee and tea is available in the usual HIP coffee hour. Many participants
will gather there before the seminar. You can carry your filled coffee or
tea mug to the room where the seminar takes place. The situation with
(free) biscuits and cookies is unclear.
Credit units
Students may gain credit units by participating in the seminar. In
theoretical physics the postgraduate seminar (jatkokoulutusseminaari, 3 ov)
would mainly come into question. This must be individually agreed in
advance with a professor.
Location
We are meeting in room A315, on the third floor of the Physicum
building.
