SUMMARY:César Gómez (1954–2025): A rich life in theory
DESCRIPTION:Venue&Time: Blue Room / 10:20 – 17:30 \nMore info: workshops.ift.uam-csic.es/CesarGathering/ \nCésar Gómez\, whose profound contributions to gauge theory\, string theory and quantum gravity were matched by his vision and generosity\, passed away on 7 April 2025. After earning his PhD in Salamanca\, he held positions at Harvard\, the IAS and CERN before joining the CSIC in Madrid\, where he became a founding member of the Instituto de Física Teórica\, his true scientific home. \nHis career spanned key areas of theoretical physics: from the quantum vacuum in QCD and two-dimensional conformal field theory to holography\, black holes and the quantum structure of spacetime. In recent years he embarked on bold new ideas about symmetry breaking and the quantum origin of the universe\, entering one of his most creative periods when his life was cut short. \nBeyond his scientific achievements\, César was a gifted teacher\, an inspiring presence at seminars and a remarkable conversationalist. He leaves behind not only a lasting scientific legacy\, but also the memory of a colleague and friend who enriched every exchange with curiosity\, insight and humanity. \nThe meeting will be an opportunity to celebrate Cesar’s life and career through the personal recollections of some of his friends and collaborators. \nRead CERN’s obituary

SUMMARY:Fast inference for slow likelihoods with probabilistic machine-learning
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jesús Torrado from IEM-CSIC\n\n\n\n\nVenue&Time: Red Room / 3:00 PM\n\n\n\nAbstract: Inference for slow likelihoods can require weeks or months\, if possible at all\, with traditional Monte Carlo samplers. This would be the case\, for example\, when fitting expensive non-linear matter spectrum models\, or when characterizing individual long-duration GW events. I will introduce a fast machine-learning Bayesian inference algorithm for general non-Gaussian posteriors with a moderate number of parameters. I will present a pedagogical discussion of some general aspects of it\, such as dealing with the curse of dimensionality\, characterizing a region of interest\, or parallelising active learning. I will show that the total number of expensive likelihood evaluations can be reduced by at least two orders of magnitude compared to traditional Monte Carlo methods\, at low overhead costs and no pre-training. I will demonstrate its performance on a couple of real cosmological and GW problems.

SUMMARY:Delta N formalism: non-linear evolution of scalar and tensor perturbations during inflation
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Danilo Artigas\n\n\nInstitution: Kyoto University\n\n\nLocation&Place: IFT Seminar Room/Red Room\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract:\n\n\nLinear-perturbation theory has proven to be an extremely powerful tool to compare inflationary models with observational data. Recently\, the newcoming high-precision observations call for predictions beyond linear perturbations. Such effects are known to be relevant for example in the production of primordial black holes or scalar-induced gravitational waves. The delta N formalism proposes to capture some of these non-linearities by describing the universe as a set of homogeneous patches evolving independently. After reviewing its formulation\, I will apply it to the case of a single scalar field following a slow-roll evolution\, briefly interrupted by a phase of ultra-slow roll where the potential is nearly flat. Taking care of the correlation of the patches\, I will show how to obtain correlation functions of scalar perturbations. As a final note\, I will briefly show how this procedure can also be applied to describe primordial gravitational waves.

SUMMARY:To bind or not to bind\, a tale of two nucleons
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: André Walker-Loud (LBNL) \nVenue&Time: Red Room / 11:30 AM \nAbstract: Our ability to understand the emergence of nuclear physics from the Standard Model requires an understanding two nucleon interactions from the underlying quark and gluon degrees of freedom. Due to the non-perturbative nature of QCD at low-energies\, the only method to provide such predictions\, with quantifiable uncertainties is lattice QCD. Yet the application of lattice QCD to the two-nucleon problem is beset by a number of significant challenges\, such that it has remained uncertain whether di-nucleon systems form bound states at pion masses heavier than nature. I will present recent work exploring this question with all varieties of methods in the literature\, including the HAL QCD potential method\, on a single set of gauge ensembles\, enabling for a direct comparison of the methods.

SUMMARY:Stirring up the intracluster medium with substructures
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Go Ogiya from Zhejiang University\n\n\n\nVenue&Time: Red Room / 3:00 PM\n\n\n\n\nAbstract: \nThe origin of the turbulent motion of the intracluster medium (ICM) has been a longstanding open question. Stirring by substructures (member galaxies and dark matter subhaloes) orbiting within a galaxy cluster is a possible mechanism to generate and maintain the ICM turbulence. We develop a semi-analytic model considering three processes of energy transfer from substructures to the ICM (dynamical friction\, ram pressure\, and sloshing)\, and propagation and dissipation of the deposited energy. The model reproduces the gas velocity structure derived from hydrodynamical simulations. We find that dynamical friction is responsible for explaining the strong turbulence (~ 500 km/s) in the cluster outskirts (> 1 Mpc)\, while sloshing explains the mild turbulence (~100 km/s) in the cluster centre. In the talk\, we will also discuss implications for X-ray observations of the new generation\, such as XRISM and eROSITA.

SUMMARY:Kaluza-Klein Amplitudes in AdS: the Virasoro-Shapiro and the Veneziano Amplitudes
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Bo Wang from Zhejiang U. Inst. Mod. Phys. \nVenue&Time: Red Room / 3:00 PM \nAbstract: \nI will report recent progress on AdS Virasoro-Shapiro and Veneziano amplitudes for half-BPS operators with arbitrary Kaluza-Klein modes. The key ingredient is a bootstrap built directly in the world-sheet representation\, together with a novel formalism. This approach yields a structural string description of AdS amplitude and a precise correspondence with correlators in N=4 SYM: at first curvature order we obtain a unique solution. I will also discuss the applications to broader holographic models beyond AdS5*S5.

SUMMARY:Vacuum stability for gravity compactifications
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Alessandro Tomasiello (Milano Bicocca)\n\n\nVenue&Time: 15:00 / Red Room\n\n\nAbstract: Compactifying from higher dimensions typically produces many different vacuum solutions; this leads to multiple possible decay channels\, mediated by the nucleation of bubbles. In string theory\, the latter can be expanding D-branes. Supersymmetry provides a stabilization mechanism; I will describe how to replicate it for supersymmetry-breaking vacua\, with some partial success.

SUMMARY:Measuring Stochastic Gravitational Wave Backgrounds with Pulsar Timing Arrays
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Mauro Pieroni\n\n\nInstitution: IEM-CSIC\n\n\nLocation&Place: Red Room\n\n\nAbstract:\n\n\nMy talk focuses on using Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) data to measure Gravitational Waves (GWs). In particular\, I will focus on Stochastic GW Background (SGWB) measurements. After a general introduction to the topic\, I will discuss a new (simplified) approach to constrain SGWBs with PTA data. This methodology significantly reduces the computational cost of the analysis\, opening up new avenues to explore the constraining power of PTA experiments. Within this framework\, I’ll revisit the constraints current and future PTA experiments can set on cosmological scenarios.

SUMMARY:Will we know the Neutrino Mass Ordering by the end of 2026?
DESCRIPTION:The JUNO reactor neutrino experiment has recently begun collecting data\, marking the start of a new precision era in neutrino research. With its unparalleled precision\, JUNO is poised to refine our understanding of most neutrino oscillation parameters. Its cornerstone measurement – the determination of the neutrino mass ordering — holds the promise of a breakthrough. In this talk we will explore the physics behind the two distinct ways JUNO data can be used to probe the mass ordering\, one of which could lead to the resolution of this fundamental question in the near future. Additionally\, we will examine the conditions necessary for such a discovery and address potential\ntheoretical caveats that could influence the interpretation of the outcome.

SUMMARY:Dark Matter Clues from the Faintest Galaxies
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Julio Navarro\n\n\n\n\nInstitution: University of Victoria\n\n\n\n\nAbstract: Lambda Cold Dark Matter (LCDM) is the most successful theory for the formation of structure in the Universe. Although its predictions have been verified on large scales\, they are still contested on the scale of dwarf galaxies\, whose dynamical properties are often cited as evidence for the need to revise some of LCDM’s basic tenets. In this context\, I will discuss the recent discovery of the faintest galaxies known to date\, and how their properties may be used to place constraints on the clustering of dark matter on the smallest galactic and sub-galactic scales\, as well as on the viability of some of the proposed alternatives to LCDM.\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Cosmological Constraints from Simulation-Based Forward-Modeling of DES Cluster Abundances
DESCRIPTION:Cluster cosmology is potentially one of the most powerful observational probes of structure formation. However\, enabling unbiased cosmological constraints requires careful modeling of the cluster selection function. In the case of optical cluster cosmology\, this requires accurate modeling of projection effects. We will introduce a new simulation-based inference framework with which we reanalyze DES Y1 cluster abundances\, highlight both the promise and challenges of this new approach.
