Meetings of the high-energy astrophysics group at MPE

The aim is to maintain the flow of information within the HE group
Thursdays at 13.30, normally in new Seminar room.

This page is a record and a planning tool to help us organize the meetings.
Forthcoming entries are provisional, please provide your inputs and suggestions !
Everyone is encouraged to contribute regularly.
Especially welcome: papers to be submitted, already submitted, or in press, your conference presentations (past or future), conference reports,
hot news items, papers you found interesting, more general issues, anything you would like to discuss.
Aim at 15 min per contribution.

We start each week with 15 min coffee + chat.
