Mathematical Physics Seminars
We have a seminar twice a week:
| Days: | Mondays and Thursdays |
| Time: |
talk at 4:15 pm, preceeded by coffee and biscuits
The seminars are
open ended but there will be a short break after about 50 minutes. |
| Location: |
Mondays in room G/010 in Goodricke College (building 22 on
campus map),
Thursdays in
V/131 in Vanbrugh College (building 25 on
campus map) |
Other mathematical physics seminars take place
in the
Wednesday Departmental Seminar series and for convenience these too
are listed in the programme below.
Please note that this is the tentative
evolving program. It is advisable to re-check the page shortly before
each talk.
For further details or to be placed on the mailing list please
contact Dr. B.S. Kay or
Dr. G.W. Delius.
