Joint seminars of the NPI

The joint seminars of the Nuclear Physics Institute are reserved for subjects extending the scope of interests of one department (mainly seminars of the important guests, reviews on NPI groups and the outstanding results, usually in English).

Next seminar:

The seminars usually take place at the NPI seminar room and start at 10:00.
