HJAC Meet & Mingle
As the Heidelberg astronomy community is divided across many institutes, we find relatively few chances to have casual science discussions with colleagues across town.
However, the well established Heidelberg Joint Astronomical Colloquium (HJAC) provides one potential opportunity to come together socially, as well as scientifically. Therefore, and by popular demand, starting winter term 2024 an opportunity for all to meet & mingle in advance of the HJAC was established. This is hosted starting at 16:00 in Philosophenweg 12 room 106A (right next to the lecture hall), with light refreshments (cookies & drinks). Everybody who wants to socialize with Heidelbergs Astro Community (students, postdocs, staff, faculty, and anything in between) is warmly invited to attend.
The HJAC meet & mingle is jointly organized by Richard Tuffs (MPIK), Kathryn Kreckel (ZAH/ARI), Ralf Klessen (ZAH/ITA), Eduardo Banados (MPIA), Hans-Günter Ludwig (ZAH/LSW), Friedrich Röpke (HITS), and Cormac Larkin (student representative).
