SINS summer school

Last week I spent two days at the first Stellar Interiors and Nucleosynthesis summer school, hosted by the CSPA at Monash U. I gave a talk on nuclear processes in thermonuclear bursts, which was good since it forced me to actually learn a little bit more about this subject. Most of the other talks were pretty hard-core stellar physics, but Jordi Jose gave a nice series of talks on classical novae and type 1a supernovae.
