News and general information
Rehabilitation of the facades: windows,
walls, surfaces.
On Monday 7.10., the
rehabilitation of facades at Bjørn Trumpys hus will be initiated. The work will consist of:
Mounting of «new» windows on the southern facade will be corrected in order
to reduce draft, all other windows will be changed in all floors. The binders
will be renewed on the brick facades, expansion joint will be improved, the
sole units will be secured and all surfaces will be treated / painted. The work will start with
rigging of the scaffolding at the southern facade, southern block and will
continue at the southern facade, northern block. A rigging plan has been worked out which means that some areas of the parking
space outside the building will be closed, and the building-office will be
located inside the building. A detailed plan for the changing of the windows will
be worked out. In all affected offices the entrepreneur will move desks and
furniture from the facade approximately 1 m. The desks and other furniture
will be covered with plastic during the work which takes about one day in a
small office. In special rooms and laboratories we will need help from users
in connection with moving apparatus and furniture. The work is expected to
end 2014 Summer. Course coordinators – Deadline to submit
exam dates: 28. oktober Deadline to submit exam
dates for this semester's oral exams is on October 28. This is so that the
faculty can post the correct deadline for withdrawals from exams which
usually is two weeks before the exam date. Send date and names of external
examiners to Kristine. Exam – information for course
coordinators visiting examination premises
The examination office
has prepared a small briefing for course coordinators who will visit written examination premises. Workshop on Heavy Flavor Correlations in Nuclear CollisionsWednesday to Friday this week, a workshop on
heavy flavor correlations in nuclear collisions was held in Bergen. During
the workshop, experts in the field gathered to share their views on various
challenges and possibilities in both the experimental and theoretical domain,
and engage in discussions on the topic. By bringing theorists and
experimentalists together, the workshop has served as an exchange platform
where analyses from recent particle colliders, such as RHIC and LHC, could be
compared with predictions from various models, giving a better understanding
of how these probes interact with, for instance, the quark gluon plasma. A
wide variety of nations and institutes have been represented, including CERN,
Italy, Germany, Finland, the Netherlands and the US, in addition to the more
local representatives from the University of Oslo and Bergen which are also
heavily involved in this field of research. PhD
Disputation before Christmas?
Do you want to
defend your dissertation before Christmas? We would then like to remind
everyone that the deadline for submitting final dissertations is on
Wednesday, October 16. The supervisors should then have a list of opponents
ready. The last possible date for disputation before the Summer is on
Wednesday, December 18. Trial
