The LHO journal club meets at noon on Thursdays in the Large Conference Room of the OSB. The idea is to bring people together over lunch and talk about a recent journal article from PRL, ApJ or the like.

Description

The CIT journal club meets at 1PM on Tuesdays in the SCR. The idea is to bring people together over lunch 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.
