PHYSICS PAPER CLUB

UPDATE

: a new PPC site is up here

What is PPC?

The PPC was founded in 2010 to gather undergraduate students of Physics and enable them to share the scientific papers studied. Every week an undergraduate student gives a talk on a chosen paper, which would critically present a problem and explain the solution suggested by the author. The discussion that follows concerns the validity of the solution, some general comments, and provides a valuable input to the general understanding of Physics. We are also very open to all inquiries about parts of Physics not well explained in textbooks, or neglected by lecturers: please come and lets use the combined experience of everyone to find a solution.

Neat. Where and when is it?

We usually meet at 5pm on a Saturday at St Hugh's College (directions), Hamlin Room 1 (Main Building, first floor). Just come to the Porters Lodge at St Margarets Rd a few minutes before.

Can I contribute?

Sure! If you are interested in sharing an interesting problem and its solution, please e-mail Chris, we are all the time looking for speakers, and we are aiming to split to subgroups concerned with particular branches of physics.
