====Symmetry Energy Journal Club: Spring 2013 ==== We will be meeting once a week (meeting time and location: Tuesday 2:00-3:00pm, Nuclear Seminar) to discuss recent papers and developments in symmetry energy. A partial list of papers that discuss constraints on the symmetry energy can be found in /projects/hira/hodges/Constraints.xlsx ===Schedule=== | **Spring 2013** |||||| ^ Date ^ Presenter ^ First Authors ^ Link ^ Topic ^ Year ^ | 1/29 | Mike | X.
