ASIAA Luncheon Talk/Journal Club Schedule

Luncheon talk started in September '97. They combine local chinese food and astrophysical apetizers. Usually they are scheduled each monday in Room 716 (7th floor) of the Condensed Matter and Physics Dept Building of the National Taiwan University, where ASIAA is temporarily located. ASIAA Journal Club, a paper-discussing gathering which used to be held independently, has been joined with Luncheon Talk since 2002.
