About the Dirac Science Day

DiRAC (Distributed Research utilising Advanced Computing) is the UK’s HPC facility for astrophysics, cosmology, nuclear physics and particle physics. The University of Exeter will host the seventh annual DiRAC science day on August 30th 2017.

DiRAC users will have the opportunity to meet members of the technical support teams for DiRAC machines in person, as well as to interact with leading industry vendors.

The day will conclude with a poster session, featuring scientific achievements from throughout the DiRAC project. All attendees are encouraged to bring a poster to exhibit recent scientific achievements. Poster prizes, kindly donated by Lenovo, are:
