%TOC% ---- ---+ link to CafePlusAgenda ---+ Cafe+ ---++ when/where * Time/Day: Friday 12.03.2004 09.00g * Place: Radio building * possible themes: * http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0402608 * astropolitics suggestion (Boud) - let's *assume* that everyone has good intentions and sort out concrete suggestions, criticisms from anyone being upset, angry etc - there are many useful comments that have come up * science - what next? discussion of further tests * software - what next? * suggestions from Micha³ * http://www.astro.uni.torun.pl/sympa/cosmo-torun/2004-03/msg00000.html * http://www.astro.uni.torun.pl/sympa/cosmo-torun/2004-03/msg00001.html * other cosmo/extragalactic themes? Frequency: roughly once a fortnight (see CafePlusAgenda for past and future dates) *reminders* - please subscribe to http://www.astro.uni.torun.pl/sympa/cosmo-spotka to receive reminders - (anyone can send a reminder to this list if Boud forgets...) ---++ why? Purpose: stimulate discussion and understanding each other's cosmo/extragal research, but also include astronomers/students not directly involved in cosmo research projects, in order to encourage general information flow. ---++ how? Format: * very short talks, *maximum 5 minutes*, explained in a simple way, related to cosmology/extragalactic astronomy in some way, e.g. * your own research * an astro-ph article * a printed journal article * a cosmology announcement in the govt/corporate media * a web site about cosmology * software you think is useful * something else - use your imagination! * in each case hopefully followed by questions, discussion * język/language: wyb?r wolny/free choice * the list of topics may be decided "on the spot", or people with a zwicky login may add to the agenda beforehand at: http://adjani.astro.uni.torun.pl:9673/zwicky/CafePlusAgenda Comments: * having very short talks encourages * a variety of speakers * possible cross-fertilisation of randomly chosen ideas * more likely to concentrate on questions and discussion * people won't get bored * more likely to have spontaneous ideas * practice in going straight to a key idea and explaining it in simple words * the time limit of one hour means that people know this won't take up their whole day; those people more interested, and with more time, can hang around for the research meeting. ---++ who? Participation: This should be of interest to all TCfA staff and astronomy students, though there will probably be a core group mostly of cosmo/extragal people. http://www.astro.uni.torun.pl/sympa/cosmo-spotka/2002-11/msg00002.html Participation in CafePlus can be credited for the SeminarFourthFifthYear.
