Astronomy Journal Club
On Wednesday mornings, once a fortnight, we meet at 11:30
(unless otherwise stated) for a journal club.
The location for each meeting will be announced beforehand.
Normally each speaker critically dissects a refereed research paper,
or sometimes closely linked papers.
Each paper presentation should be 30 minutes long,
interrupted and followed by discussion.
The entire event should take one hour.
The papers could be anything published in the last year
in astrophysics, related science and relevant to astronomy.
We encourage MSSL astronomers and astrophysicists
to register in the schedule of talks below.
Please contact CJS2 to choose a date,
or for other JC queries.
