Some of you might notice, I have posted a number of “news” post without giving them the title “weekly news”.
Those are weekly features of news. I think that way of posting news neglects other news that were important too. For example, the great talk yesterday Oct 24 by Dr. Atsushi Tsutsumi from University of Tokyo on Energy Recuperation. Thus, I shall start listing down events/news that are sent to my inbox by the department’s staff, GSS Communication and other sources (if any).
