3 rd GRAPPA meeting

The center for Gravity and AstroParticle Physics Amsterdam (GRAPPA),
which represents one of the priority areas (onderzoekszwaartepunten) of
the science faculty of the Universiteit van Amsterdam, is organizing a
series of afternoon meetings centered around one particular subject each.

The second meeting in this series will take place on Wednesday, May 19th,
from 14.00-17.00 hours, in room Z011 at Nikhef. The theme of this
second meeting is "Gravitational Waves", and the program follows after the break. Read More...
