  • SPS Journal Club: ‘Axion-Scalar Systems and Dynamical Distances’

    Journal clubs

    Strings, Pheno and the Swampland (SPS) Journal Club  Speaker: Gonzalo F. Casas (IFT) Title: 'Axion-Scalar Systems and Dynamical Distances' Abstract: We study the cosmology of axion-scalar pairs, coupled by a hyperbolic field-space metric and with a string-motivated rational scalar potential. Borrowing tools from the theory of dynamical systems, we are able to classify all late-time […]

  • Seminar: ‘Beyond the Minimal Axion: Robustness of Standard Predictions’
