The aim of the club is to informally review and discuss recent publications that are of interest to the specific research of the group or to cosmology in general. You should post the Arxiv numbers of papers that interest you on this page. Everybody is encouraged to contribute as often as possible.  
The aim of the club is constantly being defined. What we will try this semester, is to use this space to teach/inform each other about topics of general interest. Such topics might originate simply out of curiosity from browsing the arXiv, or from actual needs we might have in our work. Blackboard presentations are encouraged.

The aim of the club is constantly being defined. What we will try this semester, is to use this space to teach/inform each other about topics of general interest. Such topics might originate simply out of curiosity from browsing the arXiv, or from actual needs we might have in our work. Blackboard presentations are encouraged.

The Darklight Journal Club meets every Tuesday at 1:00pm in the kitchen. Bring your lunch!

Let's list articles to discuss here:
