“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all

art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause longer

to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.

– Albert Einstein, Physicist

Information

This is the wiki page for the weekly seminars of graduate students of experimental nuclear physics (ENP-GS) at Jefferson Lab. One chosen student will give an informal 30/60-min presentation or lead a discussion on a topic that he/she chooses.

1. Time: Thursday 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM
2. Location: CEBAF Center F226

We prefer NOT to have notes or slides for the presentation. If you want to give a talk, simply add your name and topic to the agenda. For help doing this, click here

A Google mailing list has been created for communications: EPN-GS@googlegroups.com Please subscribe to the list if you want to receive messages or reminders.
