Nordita is situated in the AlbaNova University Center campus, as are the the two theory groups (CoPS and KoF) in the physics department of Stockholm university (SU), and the theoretical physics department of the Royal institute of technology (KTH). Since these four units share the same interests, we have decided to co-organize seminars, conferences and other events.
Here is a list of the regularly scheduled seminars in theoretical physics that are organized by one or more of the theory groups at AlbaNova. See the Seminar schedule for a list of seminars held within a month from now.
Theory seminar, with a slant towards string theory and general relativity.
Organizers:
This is strongly phenomenology/cosmology-oriented, but occasionally theorists speak
Usual time: bi-weekly on Tuesdays at 13.15-14.30, usual place: the FA32 seminar room. (Weekly, except when there are a lot of new postdocs when it's every week)
Organizers:
This is is a "theory colloquium" (i.e. cond-mat, quantum information, string theory, anything theory), i.e. supposed to not be overly technical.
Usual time: weekly on Wednesdays at 11.00-12.15, usual place: the FA31 or FA32 seminar rooms.
Organizers:
Eventhough the physics departments of KTH and Stockholm University (SU) are located at AlbaNova, the mathematics departments are not (but within walking distance from AlbaNova). The two departments co-organize a mathematics colloquium.
Usual time: Weekly on Wednesdays at 16.00-17.00, and alternates between KTH (odd weeks) and SU (even weeks). At the KTH Mathematics department the colloquium is usually held in room 3721 (tea is served at 3:30 in the lunch room), and at the SU Mathematics department it is usually held in building 5, room 14.
This journal club has a theme every semester, concurrently with the usual type of "recent paper" discussion when someone volunteers.
Usual time: roughly bi-weekly on Thursdays at 13.30-15.00 or 11.00--12.30, usual place: the CoPS group room, A5:1041.
Organizers:
The AlbaNova colloquia are intended for students and staff members in all research fields at AlbaNova - physics, astronomy and biotechnology.
Usual time: Thursdays at 15.15-16.00, usual place: the Oskar Klein Auditorium, FR5. Coffee and tea is served at 15.00 outside the auditorium.
Organizers:
Theorerical biophysics, complex systems and statistical mechanics seminar; sometimes experimental work is presented;Usual time: weekly on Tuesdays 13.30-14.30, usual place: 112:026, NORDITA astrophysics building seminar room
Organizers:
Roughly bi-weekly seminar given by members of the local physics community, intended for a general theoretical physics audience.
Usual time: roughly weekly on Fridays at 13.15-14.30, usual place: the Nordita seminar room, 132:028.
