Description
The CIT journal club meets at 4PM on Fridays in the Bodega (Rm 251 W Bridge). The idea is to bring people together in the afternoon and talk about a recent journal article from PRL, ApJ or the like. Someone is designated as a lead (ensuring someone has read the article!), to initiate the discussion, but not to present slides or give a monologue. The lead should also post a PDF of the article below, a few days in advance. Preferably, selected articles won't be exceptionally long, and would relate (at least obliquely) to LIGO.
http://lhocds.ligo-wa.caltech.edu:8000/iLIGO/JournalClub/JournalSources - click here for links to a selection of relevant journals (access is through the CIT proxy, so you'll need an ITS account there).
A complete list of CIT e-journals is available at [http://metalib.caltech.edu:8331/V/R3VQPH44RNMJ3BVGIKDF37XAXHLDP3NJD7CA3PA8HSGRKGJNVF-56323?func=find-ej-1 library.caltech.edu].
Highlighted papers
If you find happen to find any papers that would be interesting to discuss at future journal club meetings, then you should add them to the list on the following page:
Future meetings
Please do not add the article to the page as an attachment. A link to the journal will be fine.
