Title: '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 […]

Title: '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 […]

Speaker: Tom Rudelius (Durham U., Dept. of Math.) Title: Co-Scaling and Alignment of Electric and Magnetic States Venue & Time: Red Room / 11:30 Abstract: Towers of electrically and magnetically charged states in quantum gravity often exhibit two important properties. First, the ratio of the mass (or tension) of electrically charged states to magnetically charged […]

Title: '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 […]
