LASP: Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics

Below is a schedule of the informal LASP Magnetospheres Seminars for the Spring 2006 semester. Except where noted, meetings will generally be held on Tuesday afternoons in room LSTB-206 at 3:00 pm.

LASP holds a series of informal seminars focused on space physics and plasma research relating to the magnetospheres of Earth and other planets. The intended audience is space and planetary physics researchers in the Boulder area, although in most instances any interested persons are welcome to attend.
