- construction of background-independent qft
- classical gravity as an emergent phenomena
- experimental signatures of quantum gravity
Schedule
- Thursday, April 28 - Tilley Hall 404
- Friday, April 29 - Tilley Hall 404
Particpants will include
Ivan Booth, Joel Brownstein, Wade Cherrington, Arundhati Dasgupta, Jack Gegenberg, Viqar Husain, Isabeau Prémont-Schwarz, Igor Khavkine, Jason LeBlanc, Woei Chet Lim, Bob McKellar, Nicos Pelavas, Frederic Schuller, Brian Tupper, Mattias Wohlfarth, and Roustam Zalaletdinov.
Atlantic Relativity Mini-Conference
UNB - Fredericton, New Brunswick
April 30, 2005
|
We have planned a regional meeting of
people in the Atlantic region of Canada and the neighbouring states
in the USA. These meetings have been occurring on a more or less
regular basis for many years, and have been jointly organized by the
relativity groups at Dalhousie University, University of New Brunswick and
l'Université de Moncton.
We invite all
participants - faculty, postdocs and grad students - to give a
short, perhaps 30 minute, talk. This year, the
meeting will be at the University of New Brunswick in Fredericton on
Saturday, April 30. We will arrange time slots for talks, as we receive
titles/abstracts.
Saturday, April 30 - Tilley Hall 404

Please contact the
organizers for both the Workshop and the Mini-Conference
at
qg1@math.unb.ca as soon as possible if you can participate, whether you
will give a talk, and if you would like to be billeted, or get some
information on local hotels/B&Bs.
We recommend that you make arrangements at the following 2 accommodations. Both are within walking distance of the university.
Lord Beaverbrook Hotel
Carriage House Inn (B&B)
We will be updating this website as soon as more information becomes available.
