Polygonal Gravity Seminars
IFT Seminar Room/Red Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainScientific activitiesMadrid's Polygonal Gravity Seminar Series Wednesday, January 29th. Blue Room (IFT) 11:30h First talk Speaker: Robie Hennigar (U. Durham, UK) Title: Building Regular Black Holes Abstract: The study of regular (singularity-free) black holes has a long history, but progress has been limited by the absence of a dynamical framework in which they form and by […]

SPS Journal Club: ‘Mapping moduli across heterotic conifolds’
IFT Seminar Room/Red Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainJournal clubsStrings, Pheno and the Swampland Journal Club Title: 'Mapping moduli across heterotic conifolds' Speaker: Christian Aoufia (IFT) Venue & Time: Red Room / 12:00 Abstract: In this work, we provide evidence for a duality between 4-dimensional Calabi-Yau compactifications of the heterotic string, in which the base manifolds are linked by a conifold transition. In recent […]

Pheno Journal Club: ‘GeV-scale QCD Axion’
Gray Room 3 Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainJournal clubsTitle: 'GeV-scale QCD Axion' Speaker: Thomas Steingasser (IFT) Venue & Time: 12:00 / Gray Room 3 Abstract: In order to solve the strong CP problem, we study the possibility that the Peccei–Quinn symmetry is broken below the QCD scale. We find that a QCD axion can be above GeV, and may be among the observed […]

Seminar by Ennio Salvioni (IFAE): ‘Probing the Dark Sector with Large Scale Structure’
IFT Seminar Room/Red Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainScientific activitiesTitle: 'Probing the Dark Sector with Large Scale Structure' Speaker: Ennio Salvioni (IFAE) Venue&Time: Red Room / 15:00 Abstract: Precision cosmology offers opportunities to test the nature of dark matter independently of any interactions with the visible sector. I will discuss how data from galaxy surveys, including the ongoing DESI and Euclid projects, can be […]

Old Journal Club: ‘Topological Quantization and Cohomology’
Blue Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) - C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainJournal clubsGonzalo F. Casas (IFT) will present 'Topological Quantization and Cohomology' by Orlando Álvarez Commun.Math.Phys. 100 (1985) 279 Abstract: The relationships between topological charge quantization,Lagrangians and various cohomology theories are studied. A very general criterion for charge quantization is developed andapplied to various physical models. The relationship betweencohomology and homotopy is discussed.

Seminar: ‘F(ℓ)avoured searches: new physics in the 3rd generation’
IFT Seminar Room/Red Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainScientific activitiesTitle: 'F(ℓ)avoured searches: new physics in the 3rd generation' Speaker: Tamara Vázquez Schröder (IFAE) Venue & Time: Red Room / 15:00 Abstract: The primary goal of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been to discover the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB). The discovery of the Standard Model (SM)-like Higgs boson in 2012 was the […]

Quantum Information Journal Club: Continuous and field tensor network states
Journal clubsSpeaker: Albert Gasull, Leiden University Venue & Time: Grey Room 3 / 11:30 Title: 'Continuous and field tensor network states' Abstract: Tensor network methods have provided us with a powerful set of tools with which to study strongly interacting many-body systems on the lattice. Understanding the limitations of this ansatz is paramount for the success […]
