Munich Junior Researchers Meeting, 21-23 February 2007

Hosting Institute: MPA Munich

Registration deadline Monday 5th February

The meeting is intended for non-PI's involved in the Dark Universe research projects to become aware of what people at other institutes are doing, and to begin discussing scientific questions currently involved in the TR projects.

The Problem:

  • Junior Researchers do not know much about the details of TR-33, i.e. Junior Researchers do not know the persons involved into the TR-33 and what they are doing to achieve the TR-33 goals.

Goals of the meeting:

  • To know the people within the network and what they are doing.
  • To START exchanges of information WITHIN the different scientific areas
  • To START exchanges of information BETWEEN the different scientific areas

Results, participants & discussions

The results, further discussions, and a list of participants can be found here.

Schedule

# Wednesday February 21. Sec. 1. Introduction: Who is doing what?

# Thursday February 22. Sec. 2. Going into details: Who is doing what in my field?

People will be divided into groups according to their working subject.

Each group have to prepare a talk for the day after. We suggest the division presented below. Of course you are free to join the group you prefere:

  1. Theory & Simulations

  3. Observational constraints: Galaxy clusters and galaxies

# Friday February 23. Sec. 3. Global view: What are the different groups doing?

The groups should summarize a picture of the working progress in all different areas. Interactions between different groups are encouraged in the exchange in expertises, codes or whatever is necessary.

Participants Talk on February 21th

All slides can be found here.

All TRR33 participants are supposed to give a 5 minutes talk to introduce them-self and their work related to dark energy-matter (TRR33!).

Presentations should be sent in pdf format, before 15-02-07 to maturi@ita.uni-heidelberg.de

We'd like to have the presentations in a standard format (as follows) since we will produce a document with all presentations, which will help to better follow and manage the amount of information of the first day.

Talk Format:
- Slide 1: Full Name, Picture of your face (mandatory), Institute, TR33 Project and your PI, your favorite hobby (mandatory)
- Slide 2: What you and your group want to achieve...
- Slide 3: What you have done right now...
- Slide 4: What is your next step/goal...
- Slide 5: If you have a problem, present it and ask for help

Use landscape format and please, if possible, write in black on white background and use as less formulas as possible (forget about details, focus on the concepts, and remember that the audience goes from theoreticians to observers).

Travel Information

For travel information you can visit the MPA web-page: travel info.

Funding

  • Bonn & Heidelberg Institutes: TRR-33 will cover all travel expenses including hotels and the subscription fee of all people associated with the TRR-33. Ask to your local Transregio-PI (of the group you belong to). TRR-33 will NOT cover the Food&Beverage expenses because of the DFG regulations. The only chance to account for these expenses is through local institute (University) funds. Ask your PI! In any case we will try to provide Food&Beverage resources during the workshop!

  • Munich Institutes: You can not have any TRR-33 money (TRR33 can only pay for travel expenses), BUT for you the workshop subscription is for free. The only chance to account for other expenses is through your institute funds. Ask your PI!
