Whiteboard Seminars
Informal theoretical physics seminars followed by open scientific discussions are held every second Tuesday, 1:30-3:00 p.m., at the Center for Nonlinear Studies. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, statistical physics, nonlinear physics, quantum physics, and applied mathematics. Seminar coordinators Misha Chertkov (chertkov@lanl.gov) and Eli Ben-Naim (ebn@lanl.gov) welcome your suggestions for speakers. If you are interested in receiving e-mail announcements about upcoming whiteboard seminars, please contact one of us, so that we can add you to the mailing list.
