Læs følgende nyheder for uge 41: En satellit til historiebøgerne<http://scitech.au.dk/roemer/sep13/en-satellit-til-historieboegerne/> Satellitten Kepler har de sidste fire år udforsket en lille del af Universet, og givet menneskeheden overrumplende mængder af ny viden. På cv’et kan Kepler notere opdagelsen af 4000 planetkandidater og evnen til at fokusere på 150.000 stjerner. Dermed har satellitten åbnet døren til et Univers, vi ikke vidste eksisterede. Ny postdoc: Oliver Kirsebom Oliver Kirsebom will be joining the nuclear physics group at IFA as a postdoctoral researcher on October 1st, where he will be working with Hans Fynbo on long beamtime experiments for nuclear astrophysics. Oliver, already a close acquaintance of IFA, obtained his PhD from Aarhus University in 2010, whereupon he took up a two-year postdoctoral position at TRIUMF, Canada's National Laboratory for Particle and Nuclear Physics, on a grant from the VKR foundation. After three years at TRIUMF, he is now returning to IFA to continue his research on light nuclei with applications for nuclear astrophysics, initially focusing on the alpha-conjugate nuclei 8Be, 12C and 16O.

Alle er velkomne. Se invitation.<http://phys.medarbejdere.au.dk/fileadmin/site_files/nyheder/Joergen_Boettiger_afsked.pdf> Invitation to AU knowledge exchange day 14. November How do you best exchange your knowledge with collaborators outside Aarhus University (AU)? We would like to invite you and your colleagues from your department to attend the Knowledge Exchange Day 2013, where you will get the opportunity to exchange and develop ideas on how to exchange knowledge in practice.

Fraværsregistrering Fremover skal alle meddelelser om fravær (sygdom, ferie m.v.) afleveres til Trine Binderup, trinebm@phys.au.dk<mailto:trinebm@phys.au.dk>. AV Support AU IT har overtaget al ansvaret vedrørende av-support og indkøb på Aarhus Universitet. Vi har gennemgået alle undervisningslokaler på dit fakultet og har udbedret enkelte fejl. Vi har bevaret aftalen med AVC på auditorierne, da de for det meste indeholder meget avanceret udstyr, som AVC har god erfaring med at vedligeholde. Dog er den daglige support af auditorierne fremover varetaget af AU IT, og netop derfor vil I også opleve et nyt kontakt tlf.nr, der er sat op i jeres større auditorierne (100+ pers.). Vi har folk gående på området, så vi er aldrig langt væk. Vores folk på området vil løbende fortsætte med at tjekke udstyret i alle undervisningslokaler, seminarrum og auditorier for at minimere nedbrud og optimere den daglige brugssituation. Vi har udstyret den lokale av-runderingsvagt med en udstyrspakke, så de kan udbedre evt. mangler. De er desuden udstyret med en projektor til anvendelse i akutte tilfælde. I alle jeres undervisningslokaler samt auditorier hænger der infosedler med et tlf.nr til nærmeste av-vagt. Vi tilstræber at kunne afhjælpe av-relaterede problemer i en undervisningssituation indenfor 8 min. I løbet af efteråret vil vi påbegynde en rundering af alle mødelokaler og videokonferencefasciliteter på området. VI har prioriteret undervisningen indtil videre. Med venlig hilsen Michael Høyer Bæk, AU IT. Opslag Ansøgningsfristerne til Det Frie Forskningsråd nærmer sig.

Registration of absence From this time on all registration of absence (sick leave, holidays etc.) must be sent to Trine Binderup, trinebm@phys.au.dk<mailto:trinebm@phys.au.dk>. AV Support AU IT has taken over the responsibility of AV-support and procurement at Aarhus University. We have examined all teaching rooms on your faculty and mended a few errors. We have kept the arrangement with AVC regarding the lecture theatres, as they generally contain very advanced equipment, which AVC has quite a lot of experience maintaining. However, the day-to-day support of the lecture theaters will from now on be conducted by AU IT. Thus, you will find that a new contact telephone number will be placed in your larger lecture theatres (100+ people). We have people in the area, so we are never far away. Our people in the area will continue to check all teaching rooms, seminar rooms and lecture theatres in order to minimize breakdowns and make daily use optimal. We have equipped the local AV-responsible with and equipment package in order to always be prepared for any defects. Furthermore, they are equipped with a projector to be used in urgent situations. All your teaching rooms and lecture theatres will contain information about the telephone number for the closest AV-supporter. Our aim is to solve AV-related problems within 8 minutes.
