Sep 14 2017 - 12:00 to 14:00 Aitor Landete D-branes, axion monodromy and large-field inflation
This thesis explores different realizations of large-field inflation in type II string theory compactifications, in presence of the open-string sector, within the context of axion monodromy.

This thesis explores the possibility that the Higgs particle may have a pseudo-Goldstone boson origin.

Sep 8 2017 - 12:00 to 13:00 Ana Isabel Salvador Counts-in-Cells with the Dark Energy Survey

We use the Counts-in-Cells (CiC) method to obtain the galaxy bias. CiC is a method based on dividing the sphere in cells of the same volume and counting the number of galaxies in each cell.

Sep 15 2016 - 12:00 to 14:00 Miguel Montero Muñoz Gauge symmetries in Quantum Gravity and String Theory

This thesis explores the spectrum of states charged under global and gauge symmetries in String Theory, and the constraints that they pose on specific phenomenological models.
