The majority of known hadrons in the low-energy QCD spectrum are resonances observed in multi-particle scattering processes.

Continuous spin particles on-shell

Continuous spin particles (CSPs) arise naturally in the classification of unitarity representations of the Poincaré group but have long been dismissed because of their unintuitive nature.

Extra dimensions of space: science or fiction?

In this (hopefully) pedagogical talk I explain why it is useful to contemplate extra dimensions of space and how it can change the way we think about the cosmological constant problem.

Bubble wall velocity from hydrodynamics

Terminal velocity reached by bubble walls in cosmological first-order phase transitions is an important parameter determining both primordial gravitational wave spectrum and the production of baryon asymmetry in models of electroweak baryogenesis.

Unraveling the DAMA/LIBRA Puzzle: last results from the ANAIS-112 Experiment

For over two decades the DAMA/LIBRA experiment has reported an annual modulation in the low-energy region consistent with the expectation from dark matter (DM) in the galactic halo due to Earth's motion around the Sun.

Bootstrapping CFTs with moduli spaces

Many SUSY CFTs have a continuous space of vacua known as a moduli space. Understanding how moduli spaces manifest in CFT data is crucial for classifying and constraining SUSY CFTs yet remains an open problem.
