Journal Club and Seminars on Particle Phenomenology

The Journal Club on Particle Phenomenology takes place usually on Thursdays at 10:30am (in lecture room #2). In general it is divided in two parts:

1) The “what got me interested this week” part, in which people comment on papers they have found recently but not necessarily read. The idea is to have a quick pass at the level of the abstract of the paper, so we are up to date and can see if anyone is interested in reading some of the papers in more depth (which leads us to the second part)

2) Someone leads a deeper discussion of a single paper. The idea is to have someone on the blackboard presenting the paper, but the audience is also supposed to have read it. These papers will be selected with as much antecedence as possible, possibly selected from ones selected from the first part of the JCs.

The Seminars on Particle Phenomenology are scheduled according to the possibility of speakers to give specialized talks on their recent work.
