PRL Seminars

Plasma Research Bites Seminar Series
The purpose of this series is to provide a forum for the dissemination and brief discussion of physics results or problems in the general field of plasma physics.
Each
fortnight two 10 minute talks will be held, one from PRL-space, and one from
PRL-toro (including the Plasma, Fluids and Theory
Group). The 10 minute time limit, which
includes question time, will be ruthlessly enforced by the Chair.
Talks will start at 10:30am, and will generally be held in the Seminar Room in the Oliphant building.
All staff and students are strongly encouraged to give at least one presentation per year. Speaker suggestions and vounteer speakers should direct correspondence to Cormac.Corr@anu.edu.au.
A cake roster has also been set up, and encourage people to volunteer periodically to bring along a cake. (Please email Cormac.Corr@anu.edu.au) Tea and coffee is available after the meeting.
