Galaxies & Cosmology Bigwigs in the House!

We are very fortunate that several experts in galaxies and cosmology in town this semester, giving talks about their work in particular. Their talks will be cutting-edge, but should also be (mostly) accessible given your hard-earned ASTR406 chops.

I thus cordially invite you to attend any and all of these talks. This is not formally a part of ASTR 406, and you are not required to go.
