Deadline Day

Just a quick post.

The AAT deadline come and went and the proposals (ATLAS, AUS LRG, AUS QSO) were submitted. And once everyone had actually read each others cases, we found there was absoultely no conflict between them!

Spinelli (currently Durham), gave a brief but nice overview between the connection of (v. local) starburst, Seyfert 1 and 2 galaxies using x-ray, IRAS infra-red and HST morphology data.

Bruck (Sheffield), "Dark Energy vs. The Rest of the World" has just given us what I thought was a thought provoking talk on scalar fields, couplings, neutrino masses and chameleon fields. I suggested (in private) that since the TT doesn't differentiate much between LCDM and varying neutrino mass models, that a look at the E and B polarization modes might be worthwhile.

On that note, apparently WMAP 2nd Data Release is out tomorrow. 3 years late.
