16 Jan 2013, 09:00 → 18 Jan 2013, 17:10 Europe/London

Shawcross AS01 (University of Sussex)

Winter School at the University of Sussex organized within the COST action black holes in a violent universe MP0905. For more information about the action, please have a look at http://www3.mpifr-bonn.mpg.de/div/vlbi/COST/. There is no registration fee. Unfortunately, we cannot offer financial support to participants. The financial support of the Insitute of Physics and in particular of its High Energy Particle Physics group and Mathematical and Theoretical Physics Group is gratefully acknowledged. 

The local organizer, Xavier Calmet, can be contacted via email.
