ISAS Astrophysics Colloquia

Purpose

Rules

• A seminar is held once a week on every Thursday 11:00-12:00 (45 min for talk and 15 min for discussion). Irregular slots are available upon request.
• Any ISAS member, including graduate students, can host a seminar. Contact the organizers below for the setup.
• We welcome offers to give seminars at ISAS by researchers outside of ISAS. Please contact the organizers.
• We encourage graduate students at ISAS to give seminars. We expect the topics to be matured enough for publication and/or presentations for international meetings.
• English is used by default. The host may choose Japanese depending on the participants on the seminar day or the topic (especially for topics outside of astrophysics fields). For presentations by graduate students, they can choose either English or Japanese.

Instructions

• For speakers.
  • The colloquia are intended for young researchers at ISAS and should include an introduction aimed at first-year astrophysics graduate students.
  • We usually expect a content volume of one research paper. Reviews are also welcomed.
  • If your talk is about development of an instrument, you are expected to present what kind of astrophysical science can be achieved with your instrument.
  • Recently, we have hybrid-style colloquia: i.e., face-to-face plus zoom. Please login to the zoom room given separately and share your screen for presentation. We provide a USB-connected speaker for your laptop for verbal communication with remote participants.
