[vip-all] Talents
by Ulrik Ingerslev Uggerhøj 21 Jun '18

21 Jun '18

Dear all, As a follow-up for the residential meeting at Vejle, before which I only had response from 2 groups, I kindly ask you to - groupwise, if possible - inform me in writing about your planned activities in connection with talent students: "Please also take responsibility for organizing suggestions for host groups for “Talent students” (i.e. students being admitted to the talent program from their second year); such groups may consist of the entire topical group or one or more subgroups." Please include in your (preferably brief) response which (sub-)groups you suggest, 5-10 keywords about the scientific content, and a bit about which competencies you expect the talent students may obtain from your programme (both the 'soft' such as presentation skills, and the 'hard' such as programming in LabVIEW), and a suggestion for the final evaluation, to be done at the end of the 1/2 year (which product?).

27 May '15

Kære alle Alle ferieregistreringer er nu foretaget i fraværssystemet, således at de af jer, der har afleveret ferieskema, er registrerede for den ønskede ferie. De af jer der ikke har afleveret skema, er registreret med "standardferie": Standardferie: * 3 uger i juli/august (ugerne 29, 30 og 31) * 1 uge i oktober (uge 42) * 1 uge i februar (uge 7) Særlige feriedage: * 3 dage i juleugen (uge 53) * 2 dage før påske Det er jeres eget ansvar at sørge for at eventuelle uoverensstemmelser bliver rettede, og det er derfor vigtigt at I selv tjekker den registrerede ferie i systemet på selvbetjeningen: https://mit.au.dk/ P.S.: Personale, der er under samtidighedsferie kan IKKE tjekke ferie, men vil få et print af det registrerede sendt fra Trine. Såfremt det registrerede ikke svarer til det I har ønsket, skal I rette henvendelse til Trine Binderup: Trine.binderup(a)phys.au.dk<mailto:Trine.binderup@phys.au.dk> Vh ruth *********************************************** Dear all All holiday registration has now been carried out in the absence system, so that those of you who have submitted the holiday registration form are now registered for the desired holiday. Those of you who have not submitted the form have been registered according to "holiday profile": Holiday profile: * 3 weeks in July/August (weeks 29, 30 and 31) * 1 week in October (week 42) * 1 week in February (week 7) Special holidays: * 3 days in the Christmas week (week 53) * 2 days before Easter It is your responsibility to ensure that any disagreements are corrected, and it is therefore important that you check the registered holiday in the system in Self-service: https://mit.au.dk/. If the registered does not correspond to what you have requested, please contact Trine Binderup: Trine.binderup(a)phys.au.dk<mailto:Trine.binderup@phys.au.dk>.

[vip-all] GPC seminar today at 15:15
by Karin Vittrup 27 May '15

27 May '15

General Physics Colloquium Wed. 27 May 15:15-16:00 Fys. Aud. Title: "The Search For 100 Earths" Speaker: Debra Fischer, Yale Abstract: The search for exoplanets is motivated by the question of whether life exists elsewhere. This drives our interest in the detection of planets that are similar to our own world: rocky planets with the potential for liquid surface water and plate tectonics; worlds that might harbor life that we can recognize. Importantly, we will need to discover not just a few, but hundreds of these worlds to eventually gain a statistical understanding of whether life is rare, common, or ubiquitous. Doppler measurements with ground-based telescopes offer an ideal platform for carrying out decade-long surveys, but the state of the art measurement precision is a factor of ten away from the precision that we need to detect Earth analogs. I will discuss the technical challenges to very high precision radial velocity precision and our plans for reaching 10 cm/s measurement precision with frequency combs and extremely high spectral resolution spectroscopy. This experiment will be carried out in a "Search for 100 Earths" at the Discovery Channel Telescope using our next generation spectrograph, EXPRES. Wine and cheese will be served at 4pm

Igen i år vil priserne blive tildelt som anerkendelse for kollegers særlige indsats i løbet af det akademiske år 2014-15. Medarbejdere ved fakultetet, som har leveret en ekstraordinær og bemærkelsesværdig indsats inden for ST's opgaver både i forhold til uddannelse, forskning, erhvervssamarbejde, myndighedsbetjening og også inden for teknisk-administrativ støtte samt forskning på ph.d.-niveau kan komme i betragtning. Alle medarbejdere inviteres hermed til at indstille kolleger til hver af nedenstående kategorier af ST Awards 2015. Institut- og centerledere samt funktionschefer bedes fremsende en prioriteret indstilling med motivation (max. 1 side pr. kollega + evt. CV) til Ida (img(a)au.dk<mailto:img@au.dk>) og/eller Birgitte So-Young Ahn (bsa(a)au.dk<mailto:bsa@au.dk>) senest d. 28. maj 2015. · ST Science Award 2015: Tildeles et fremragende forskningsresultat · ST Industrial Collaboration Award 2015: Tildeles et fremragende erhvervssamarbejde · ST Education Award 2015: Tildeles en fremragende underviser/undervisningsinitiativ* · ST Talent Award 2015: Tildeles en fremragende ph.d.-studerende · ST Public Sector Consultancy Award 2015: Tildeles en fremragende indsats ift. myndighedsbetjening · ST TAP Award 2015: Tildeles en fremragende TAP-indsats * Til prisen ST Education Award 2015 bliver de studerende via SciTech-Tinget bedt om at indstille kandidater. I er selvfølgelig også velkomne til at nominere kolleger til denne pris. Vi er klar over, at priserne anerkender resultater, som sjældent er opnået af én medarbejder alene. I tilfælde hvor en gruppe af kolleger har løftet i flok, håber vi alligevel, at I kan udpege en specifik medarbejder til at modtage prisen på vegne af gruppen.

[vip-all] CMCI Workshop: Agent based modelling for quantum optimization problems - 20 May 2015
by Trine Binderup 19 May '15

19 May '15

Hi The AU network for Computational Modelling of complex interactions will have a workshop Wed. 20th May 09:15-15:00 in room 1525-626 about how agent based modelling can be applied to solve optimization problems in quantum mechanics. The aim of the workshop is to introduce agent based methods for solving complex optimization problems. We will present tools based on swarms of agents, on human agents and on artificial learning agents, predominantly through games developed by the Quantum Measurements and Manipulation group which can be found at scienceathome.org<http://scienceathome.org> If you would like to attend the workshop please contact me at madskock(a)phys.au.dk<mailto:madskock@phys.au.dk>. The tentative schedule for the workshop is as follows: 9:15-10:00 Introduction to quantum physics 10:00-11:30 Introduction to optimization problems 11:30-12:30 Lunch break 12:30-13:30 Particle swarm optimization 13:30-15:00 Using human or learning agents Best regards Mads Kock ******************************** Trine Binderup Department of Physics and Astronomy Aarhus University Ny Munkegade 120 DK-8000 Aarhus C e-mail: trine.binderup(a)phys.au.dk<mailto:trine.binderup@phys.au.dk> Phone: +45 8715 5587 Cell phone: +45 2338 2398 Office: 1525-420
