SSL's Friday Solar Lunch (FSL) Journal Club

Coordinator: Brian Welsch

Time: nominally, every other Friday, 12 noon - 1 p.m.

Place: default is Addition Conf. Room


In this seminar, participants will review recent journal articles and preprints in order to familiarize themselves with the "state of the art" of the major theoretical and observational research topics in solar and solar-terrestrial physics.

The default biweekly meeting will consist of a one-hour critical discussion of a journal article, copies of which will have been distributed to, and read by, all participants during the previous week.

Each discussion will be informally led by a participant; discussion leaders are responsible for selecting a paper and distributing copies to the mailboxes of the participants listed below.

Participants will be expected to actively contribute to all discussions, and to lead an occasional one on a rotating basis.

When appropriate, these discussions will be replaced by an informal presentation of personal research results by participants or scientific visitors.


Most weeks we will discuss an article from the current literature, which might be chosen from the list of Suggested Titles.
