At INFN: How to rely micro and macro physics ?
This morning Valeria Ferrari explained us that by linearizing the Einstein eqs and choosing a suitable function, one get a Schrödinger like eq. That's fantastic !
In Catania: Tango in Piazza Duomo
Jim Lattimer, Nick Stergioulas and I happened upon public tango. They went at it through 1am on Wednesday night. A great scene, and well worth visiting even if you don't tango yourself. Thanks Nick for the photograph!

Introducing: Lucy Keer
Evening all! I'm Lucy Keer, as you have no doubt worked out from the post title,
and this is my first ever blog post...
I'm a second year PhD student at the University of Southampton, UK, and I'm
working on modelling neutron star oscillations from starquakes, with a
view to looking at gravitational wave emission.
The school has been very enjoyable so far (I say this now that I am recovered
from testing my very limited coding skills to the limit this afternoon!)
and I look forward to keeping an eye out for anything interesting or amusing
to add to the blog.
Introducing: David Alvarez-Castillo
Yes it is. I am also joining this blog and keep you informed about the CompStar event 2011 and hopefully also entertained with all that happens around here. For those who don't know me already I'm a PhD student located in the Nuclear Physics Institute in Cracow (Poland) who's been learning about NS and following the CompStar previous meetings. Just keep in touch if you will!
