Below is the schedule of talks for the third meeting. The basic format we’ll follow is to have talks in the morning and then discussions (in smaller groups if required) in the afternoons. .
On Monday (as with the first meeting) we’ll have summary talks to set the stage and context, presenting the state of knowledge in different aspects (simulations, observations, nuclear experiment etc.).
Monday – introduction
D. Galloway – team logistics, goals, and approach of the workshop
D. Galloway – Status of burst observations: update
A. Heger – Status of X-Ray Burst Modelling: update
