Last Chance to Share Your Green Thumb in the JLab Garden Club Survey!
Here’s a "green idea" for employee participation in JLab’s sustainability efforts….. How about a JLab Community Garden right here on site! The idea is to provide the JLab workforce with an area to grow plants. If you're interested, take the Garden Club Survey on the JAG website. The cutoff date for the survey is March 31.

Colloquium and Public Lecture: On the Unreasonable Effectiveness of Hydrodynamics in Heavy Ion Collisions at Ultrarelativisitic Energies
Raju Venugopalan heads the Nuclear Theory group at Brookhaven National Lab and is an adjunct professor at Stony Brook University. He will describe how bulk phenomena in heavy ion collisions are described by the relativistic viscous hydrodynamics of a nearly perfect fluid. The role of scattering, plasma instabilities and the possible existence of a turbulent attractor in the strongly interacting Quark-Gluon plasma will be addressed. The colloquium is offered in the CEBAF Center auditorium at 11 a.m. on April 3.
