Hintze Lecture

With an hour or so to waste in Heathrow Airport I thought I’d just mention that yesterday I attended the 27th Hintze Lecture on the topic of Understanding supernova explosions with sophisticated computer simulations delivered by Prof. Adam Burrows (in the very same lecture theatre in which I gave my lecture the day before). I was also on the guest list  for a subsequent dinner in Christ Church College, which was very nice. Thanks to Stephen Smartt for that!

Anyway, I’m now on my way to Dublin (and then Maynooth) so I can vote in tomorrow’s Local and European Parliament elections before returning to Barcelona early next week after a (hopefully) restful weekend…
