Dear friends and family,
After five years of joys and sorrows the end has finally come (almost), and I am happy to invite
you to the defense of my PhD thesis on the:
*"Performance of the LHCb Vertex Locator and Flavor Tagging Studies for the Measurement of *
*the CKM Angle γ"*
that will take place on *Thursday September 25th, at 13:45* in the Aula of the VU University
(De Boelelaan 1005, Amsterdam). The ceremony will last about one hour, with me giving a
short presentation on my work in the first 10 minutes and a shower of questions from the
committee for the next 50 minutes :) However it will end, there will be a small reception directly
after the defense with some drinks and snacks so, depending on the outcome of the defense,
we will either celebrate or try to forget!
On the same evening I will then have a party, which I hope that you will all be able to attend (yes, now I am hoping that we will be celebrating)! The exact time and location of the party have not been decided yet, but more information will follow shortly.
Last but not least, I will have two 'witnesses' to help me in the period before the defense and to
stand by my side during the defense itself. For many of you this will not be a surprise, but I am
happy to leave the hard work of paranymphing in the hands of Serena Oggero and Daan van
Eijk, whom you can contact in case you have any questions and from whom you will be hearing
more in the next two months!
Their email addresses are:
Serena Oggero *serena.oggero@gmail.com serena.oggero@gmail.com*
Daan van Eijk *d.vaneijk.gm@gmail.com d.vaneijk.gm@gmail.com*
Hope to see you all on the 25th!
Cheers,
Chiara
