2017 MHD Workshop
Workshop at Columbia.
Venue
- The workshop will take place in the Conference Room of the Center for Theoretical Physics at Columbia. The Conference Room (Room 907) is located on the 9th floor of the Physics building (Pupin Laboratories).
- Street address: 538 West 120th Street, New York, NY 10027
- Note that the main entrance is on the Campus Level (5th floor, south side) as indicated here:
- You can enter Campus at 116th/Broadway. There is also the possibility of entering Pupin Hall from 120th/Broadway. In this case, enter through the North West Corner Building and take the stairs/escalators up to the Campus level, exit the building and enter Pupin through the main entrance.
- The conference room has a board and a big presentation screen -> There is the possibility of giving a black board talk or a slide presentation, or a combination of both.

Talks
- The talks on Monday afternoon are meant to be informal kick-off talks in order to start the discussion in a well defined way and to identify the topics/aspects that we want to work on in the following days (or that we want to keep in mind while working on other aspects). I’d suggest that we keep them fairly short (no more than ~20-25 mins including some discussion), just trying to provide a basic introduction that brings everyone onto the same page, addressing the following basic questions like:
- What is the analytic formulation (basic intro to the equations — if applicable)?
- What is the current status, or what have people been working on so far?
- What are the short & long-term goals? What do we need to implement/what needs to be done to move forward?
- What do you think could be the specific goals for the week?
- Please check and update the title of your talk you volunteered for (see above)
- Feel free to add some notes/thoughts/ideas regarding your talk on the wiki
