2. This semester our talks will be on Fridays at 3:30PM in MSB 109A. 

The first talk is next Friday by Prof. Wally Madych.

Title: Tomography and degree of approximation
Abstract: The question of how well a phantom (function) can be approximated in 
terms of n parallel beam Radon Transform projections (radiographs) will be 
addressed. Some background will be provided in the beginning and several 
questions will be raised at the end
