Speaker: Andriana Makridou (IFT) Venue & Time: Red Room / 12:00 Abstract: Are duality transformations symmetries of string theory? For AdS space-time the answer is no for generic asymptotic values of the moduli, since the duality symmetry is broken explicitly in the dual conformal field theory. In contrast, in string theory in flat space-time, monodromy […]

Speaker: Eric Madge, IFT Venue&Time: 12:00 / Grey room 3 Abstract: We present a new method to estimate terminal bubble velocities during first-order phase transitions in a plasma in local equilibrium. The method relies on calculating the extrema of a modified potential function for the scalar field undergoing the transition. The shape of this function, […]
