About CTA

CTA is a journal club that brings together undergrads, graduate students, and post docs to review the results of active research within the fields of astrophysics, relativity, and gravitation. Each week, members select various papers from the ArXiv (need link) and briefly review the main results of each. From those, one paper is selected to be reviewed in detail the following week.

 

For the Fall 2016 semester, CTA meets every Friday at 9am in the Dayton Conference Room, EPS 258. Please see below for details.
