Seminar by Yushi Mura (KEK)
IFT Seminar Room/Red Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainScientific activitiesTitle: 'UV completion of extended Higgs models via the confinement of SU(2) gauge' Speaker: Yushi Mura (KEK) Venue & Time: Red Room / 15:00 Abstract: The extended Higgs sectors are often introduced to explain phenomena beyond the standard model. On the other hand, the existence of multiple scalar fields may cause the Landau pole below […]

Old Journal Club: ‘Threshold production of heavy top quarks: QCD and the Higgs boson’
Blue Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) - C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainJournal clubsSergio Rodríguez (IFT) will present "Threshold production of heavy top quarks: QCD and the Higgs boson" by Matthew J. Strassler and Michael E. Peskin. Abstract: We calculate the threshold cross section for 𝑒+𝑒−→tt¯ to leading-logarithmic order in QCD, using a nonrelativistic approximation suggested by Fadin and Khoze. We study the mass range 100≤𝑚𝑡≤250 GeV, and show […]

Seminar: ‘The Muon Magnetic Moment Mystery: a 20-year puzzle in high-energy physics’
IFT Seminar Room/Red Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainScientific activitiesSpeaker: Zoltan Fodor (Penn State U.) Venue & Time: Red Room / 15:00 Title: The Muon Magnetic Moment Mystery: a 20-year puzzle in high-energy physics Abstract: In the last two decades or so there have been stronger and stronger disagreements between direct measurements of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and the standard-model prediction. Such a […]

Holo Club: ‘Holographic fluids with higher-form symmetries’
Gray Room 3 Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainJournal clubsTitle: Holographic fluids with higher-form symmetries Speaker: André Oliveira (Heriot-Watt University) Venue & Time: Grey Room 3 / 11:30 Abstract: Higher-form symmetries are ubiquitous in physics. In this talk, I focus on the case where they are continuous and encode the conservation of extended objects. Applications include elasticity, superfluidity and phases of electromagnetism. Using holography, […]

Pheno Journal Club: ‘The Cosmic Neutrino Background is within Reach of Future Neutrino Telescopes’
Gray Room 3 Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainJournal clubsYuber Perez-Gonzalez (IFT) will present: 'The Cosmic Neutrino Background is within Reach of Future Neutrino Telescopes' Venue & Time: Gray Room 3 / 12:00 Abstract: The cosmic neutrino background (CνB) can be boosted to high energies due to scatterings with energetic cosmic rays (CRs) across cosmological scales. Previous calculations focused on neutral current incoherent and […]

SPS Journal Club: ‘Hilltop quintessence, the LARGE Volume Scenario and varying-tension cosmic strings’
IFT Seminar Room/Red Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainJournal clubsLéo Veissière (IFT) will present: 'Hilltop quintessence, the LARGE Volume Scenario and varying-tension cosmic strings' Venue & Time: Red Room / 12:00 Recent observational data suggests that the dark energy equation of state parameter wDE is evolving with time, in apparent tension with the ΛCDM standard model of cosmology. Here we review these observational results, […]

Old Journal Club: ‘Supersymmetry and morse theory’
Blue Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) - C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainJournal clubsChuying Wang (IFT) will present 'Supersymmetry and morse theory' by Edward Witten J. DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY 17 (1982) 661-692 Venue & Time: Blue Room / 17:00 Abstract: It is shown that the Morse inequalities can be obtained by consideration of a certain supersymmetric quantum mechanics Hamiltonian. Some of the implications of modern ideas in mathematics […]
