From boud at astro.uni.torun.pl Fri Apr 1 14:16:49 2005 From: boud at astro.uni.torun.pl (Boud Roukema) Date: Fri, 1 Apr 2005 14:16:49 +0200 (CEST) Subject: [Cos-top] Mota et al. astro-ph/0503683 Message-ID: hi cosmic topology friends, IMHO this mailing list can be used something like a continuous workshop, with a mix of new results, informal discussion, links to software and data. The question of whether we want to risk talking about "unpublished ideas" is something that i guess will evolve by practice. At a workshop, we almost certainly give each other lots of new ideas - and who gets the credit for a one sentence comment over lunch during many hours of discussion that probably gets redigested into the back of your mind and then you think it's your own idea? In this case, the list is publicly archived - after any of us send an email to cos-top at cosmo.torun.pl, we should be able to check what was sent a few minutes later here: http://cosmo.torun.pl/pipermail/cos-top/ so even though this does not count as formal "journal" publication, at least in our community we know who mentioned what idea, when. In fact, my feeling is serious discussion on this list might lead to many-author papers. After all, SNeIa and CMB people published important papers with 30-40 or however many authors, so surely it's better to publish a very good paper with many authors than to miss results because we're not working together... Anyway, Marcelo and his colleagues just put out a nice article about the observational situation in the limit | Omega_tot - 1 | << 1 (there's an obvious error in the abstract stating that the discussion concerns | Omega_tot - 1 | << 0 ;-) http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0503683 cheers boud PS: Hi Taro - we had a small workshop in Paris a few weeks ago and decided to start a publicly archived mailing list + a wiki page - feel free to join the list at: http://cosmo.torun.pl/mailman/listinfo/cos-top (see Subscribing to Cos-top) and/or register and edit the twiki page(s): http://cosmo.torun.pl/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Cosmo/TopologyMeudon2005March From reboucas at cbpf.br Sat Apr 2 00:04:27 2005 From: reboucas at cbpf.br (Marcelo Reboucas) Date: Fri, 01 Apr 2005 14:04:27 -0800 Subject: [Cos-top] Mota et al. astro-ph/0503683 References: Message-ID: <424DC56B.8040805@cbpf.br> Dear Bound, Thank you very much for indicating the typo. We will correct it together with a few additional typos I have just found. Best regards, Marcelo.
