hi everyone,
i propose one cosmo coffee research-level workshop before the semester starts:
13:00 Fri 26.09.2009 @KRA
Unless there are other volunteers, i propose that we have a loose discussion based on what people find interesting from these online conference notes:
http://cosmo.torun.pl/Cosmo/InvisibleUniverse2009 (done) http://cosmo.torun.pl/Cosmo/GrassmannCosmoFun2009 (to do next week)
Bartek, Agnieszka, Zbyszek - if you take laptops to GrassCosmoFun or otherwise have web access during the meeting, then feel free to add to these notes. Having multiple wiki-edits of notes on a talk while it takes place could be particularly interesting...

hi everyone,
We've waited too long, so let's restart our cosmo coffee research-level workshops now - at least Bartek and i should be there:
14.00g Fri 30.10.2009 @KRA = tomorrow! (if you read this Thursday)
Topic: loose discussion based on what people find interesting from these online conference notes (or your own personal notes):
http://cosmo.torun.pl/Cosmo/InvisibleUniverse2009 http://cosmo.torun.pl/Cosmo/GrassmannCosmoFun2009
A few thoughts:
* the inhomogeneous universe stuff is important with Rocky Kolbs' summary that LCDM is best seen as a phenomenological, not physical, model, and it's interesting that Peebles thinks he has a good order of magnitude counterargument;
* Barrow et al. think that their claim to evolving alpha remains valid and is being strengthened;
* Renate Lotte: Causal Dynamical Triangulation = CDT approach to quantum gravity

hi again,
Small change in time: 15:00 not 14:00.
