We encourage the
speakers to buy airline tickets themselves earlier to get
better price. The closest airport to Ann Arbor is the Detroit Metropolitan
Airport (DTW) which is about 30 minutes’ drive from the UM campus.
Speakers can
take Metro Cars or Metro Cab to get to the campus, the price
is about $50 one way. The taxi information can be found here. If you choose
to rent a car at the airport, you can take Hwy 94 and exit at 177 to get to
the campus, the driving distance is about 25 miles. More detailed
information
for the transportation can be found at the MCTP website here.
Our secretary
Beth Demkowski (demkowsk@umich.edu,

will help you to reserve a hotel room that is often within the walking
distance to
the physics department. If you have a car, you can either park it at the
hotel parking
space, or park it at Forest St. City Public parking structure on Forest
Avenue. A
map of the central campus can be found here.
The seminar will
be held at 335 West Hall physics building, normally there will
be about 30 audiences (mainly HEP/astrophysics faculties, research
scientists,
postdocs and graduate students). The talk is
scheduled to be 45 minutes plus 15 minutes
