Title: Entanglement through topological interfaces in CFT revisited Speaker: Christian Northe (Institute of Physics, Prague) Venue&Time: Red Room / 15:00 Abstract: Present theoretical predictions for the entanglement entropy through topological defects are violated in numerical simulations of critical systems. In this talk, I discuss a paradigm shift in the preparation of reduced density matrices in […]

Title: 'Primordial Black Holes -- Positivist Perspective, Quantum Quiddity and Galaxy Genesis' Speaker: Florian Kühnel, (TU Dortmund & LMU Munich) Venue&Time: Red Room / 15:00 Abstract: Primordial black holes are black holes that may have formed in the early Universe. Their masses potentially span a range from as low as the Planck mass up to […]

Title: 'Perturbative aspect of electroweak phase transitions in the Early Universe' Speaker: Andrii Dashko (DESY) Venue&Time: Blue Room / 12:00 Abstract: We present a study of the perturbative description of thermally driven electroweak phase transitions (EWPT) in the early universe. Focusing on strong first-order transitions, which are relevant for gravitational wave cosmology, we examine the […]

Title: 'On the evidence for elastic interactions in the dark sector' Speaker: Jose Beltrán Jiménez, University of Salamanca. Venue & Time: Red Room / 15:00 Abstract: The increasing quality of cosmological data has revealed > some tensions among different probes that could be signalling the necessity of incorporating new physics into our cosmological model. One […]
