More information
- Remember that your presentation should be about 20 to 30 min long. The purpose of this rule is not to overly constrain you -- it's to give you a better idea of what we expect. See also the Guidelines for more information.
- We do not expect your talk to be the last word on the subject or a polished seminar. Your presentation is meant to raise some of the key issues, and, ideally, to initiate discussion.
- If you do not understand something in the paper, say so, or write down your question. We will collect the written questions, and discuss the issues raised as a group. Feel free to contact the course organizers if you have any organizational questions.
- Please relate the paper you present to the 2023 NSAC Long Range Plan .
- If you are a first-year graduate student interested in Nuclear Physics, please sign up for 1 credit of 8501 (Nuclear Seminar). You are highly encouraged to attend the Wednesday lunches. You are welcome to attend Tuesday afternoon seminars if you choose to do so.
- If you are an upper-level graduate student in Nuclear Physics, you should sign up for 2 credits of 8501 (Nuclear Seminar). You are expected to attend both the Tuesday afternoon seminars and Wednesday lunches. Please consult with your advisor if you have circumstances in which you may not be able to register.
- If you have any questions about any of this, please feel free to contact a faculty coordinator.
