NBIA Astroparticle Journal Club
What is this? The bi-weekly NBIA Astroparticle Journal Club
How does it work? 2-3 short informal presentations, 15 minutes each, about recent, interesting astroparticle and cosmology papers
Who runs it? A different student, postdoc, or faculty member of the NBIA each time; see the sign-up list here
When? Thursdays from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., every two weeks; see the upcoming dates below
Where? Room Bk2 at Blegdamsvej
Please contact the organizers (Mauricio and Rameez) if you have comments or suggestions
Your participation is vital to the NBIA Astroparticle Journal Club.
Please sign up here to lead the journal club on a date of your choosing.
If you have published a recent paper or have not led the discussion in some time, you will be asked to do it.
