UK Cosmo Meeting
23-24 May 2018
Outline
The
PPCT group at Swansea University will host the next UK Cosmo
Meeting. In order to allow everyone who is interested to reach
Swansea at the time we start, the meeting will last two days, with
an afternoon session on the 23rd of May (starting after lunch), and
a morning session on the 24th (finishing at lunch time).
We will have two initial keynote talks in honour of the memory of
Stephen Hawking, who played a crucial role in the development of
Gravity and Cosmology in the UK and worldwide. Then the meeting will
proceed as usual, with short blackboard presentations by
participants and lots of animated discussions.
