This page is used for scheduling of Charlottesville
astronomy/astrophysics colloquia
by Crystal
Brogan, Scott Ransom,
and Shane Davis. Once dates have been agreed on by the
speakers and hosts, they are added to the online calendar
which may therefore be 1-2 days out of date.
Usually colloquia are Thursdays
at 4:00 PM in NRAO's Edgemont Rd auditorium. However, other days
of the week (especially Mondays) at 4:00 PM are possible as well.
Coffee and cookies are served
15-20 min before the talks.
Dates in red are at special times or
locations.
Open dates, with speakers to be
determined, are in green.
Dates with no planned talks are
in blue.
If the hosting institution is
listed as CCU, that is the new joint Center for Chemistry of the
Universe.
