  • Old Journal Club: S. W. Hawking, Black holes and thermodynamics

    Blue Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) - C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, Spain

    Christian Aoufia (IFT) will present S. W. Hawking, Black holes and thermodynamics, Phys. Rev. D, vol. 13, no. 2, pp. 191–197, 1976. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevD.13.191 Venue & Time: Blue Room / 17:00 Abstract: The concept of entropy is examined with an eye toward gaining insight into the nature of black-hole thermodynamics. Definitions of entropy are given for […]

  • Axion Physics

    Gray Room 1 Instituto de Física Teórica, C/ Nicolás Cabrera 13-15, Cantoblanco, Madrid, Madrid, Spain

    Speaker: Giovanni Villadoro from ICTP Venue&Time: Grey Room 1 / 11:00 Abstract: Recent years have seen an increased interest in the phenomenology of the QCD axion and axion dark matter. In this lecture, I will review astrophysical and experimental bounds on axions, as well as the basics of axion detection experiments.

  • Recent results on the origin of Galactic CRs from gamma-ray astronomy

    IFT Seminar Room/Red Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, Spain
    Scientific activities_en

    Speaker: Guillem Martí-Davesa (INFN-Trieste) Venue&Time: Red Room / 15:00 Abstract: Supernovae have traditionally been invoked as the dominant cosmic ray factories within our Galaxy, capable of accelerating protons up to PeV energies. In this seminar we will discuss to what extent such a view holds today, and if alternative source populations could instead be relevant […]

  • Seminar: ‘Entanglement asymmetry and spontaneously broken symmetries’

    IFT Seminar Room/Red Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, Spain
    Seminars_es

    Speaker: Eduardo García-Valdecasas (SISSA, Trieste) Venue&Time: Red Room / 15:00 Abstract: Entanglement asymmetry is a relative entropy that faithfully measures the breaking of a symmetry in a subregion. We explore some applications in theories with spontaneously broken higher form symmetries. We will start with discrete abelian symmetries and then discuss continuous symmetries. We will be […]

  • Pheno Journal Club

    Gray Room 3 Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, Spain

    Every Tuesday at 15:00 in Grey Room 3.

  • Quantum Information Journal Club: Randomized truncation

    Gray Room 3 Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, Spain
    Journal clubs_en

    Speaker: Aram Harrow (MIT) Venue&Time: Grey Room 3 / 11:30 Abstract: Given a vector v, what is the closest k-sparse vector? The answer to this question is usually that we should take the largest k entries of v. It turns out that we can do better with randomized approximations. When approximating pure bipartite entangled states […]

  • SPS Journal Club: Weak Gravity and Perturbative Black Holes

    Journal clubs_en

    Speaker: Matteo Lotito (IFT) Venue&Time: Red Room / 12:00 Abstract: I present a brief summary of the derivation of the Weak Gravity Conjecture within perturbative string theory, following , and highlight possible gaps that may hinder a fully consistent proof. I then analyze the existence and properties of the black hole solutions whose extremality bounds […]

  • Old Journal Club: Neutrino Masses and Mixings in Gauge Models with Spontaneous Parity Violation

    Blue Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) - C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, Spain
    Journal clubs_en

    Pablo Blanco (IFT) will present Neutrino Masses and Mixings in Gauge Models with Spontaneous Parity Violation de Rabindra N. Mohapatra, Goran Senjanovic, Jul, 1980 Phys.Rev.D 23 (1981) 165. Abstract: Unified electroweak gauge theories based on the gauge group SU(2)L×SU(2)R×U(1)B−L, in which the breakdown of parity invariance is spontaneous, lead most naturally to a massive neutrino. […]
