En 2025 celebramos el centenario de la mecánica cuántica, una revolución científica que transformó nuestra visión del mundo al revelar que, en lo más profundo de la naturaleza, rigen leyes desconcertantes, como el efecto túnel, el principio de incertidumbre, la superposición, el entrelazamiento… A través de esta charla divulgativa descubriremos la ciencia de los universos […]

Speaker: Alexander Zlokapa (MIT) Venue & Time: Red Room / 11:30 Abstract: In the classical setting, glassiness characterizes many natural problems (e.g., random k-SAT) and underlies average-case hardness by obstructing a family of "stable" classical algorithms (e.g., constant-time Langevin dynamics). In this work, we develop analogous quantum results. Our techniques, based on quantum optimal transport, […]

Speaker: Miguel Zumalacárregui from Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (Albert Einstein Institute). Venue&Time: Red Room / 3:00 PM Abstract: Gravitational lensing, the bending of light by gravity, is essential for interpreting astronomical observations and provides key insight into astrophysics, cosmology, and fundamental physics. A new frontier in gravitational lensing intersects with another key prediction […]
Speaker: Suraj Prakash, IFIC (Valencia) Venue&Time: Red Room / 3:00 PM Abstract: The talk will present a study of the sensitivity of COHERENT-like experiments to non-standard neutrino interactions within the vWEFT framework, i.e. low-energy EFT with additional right-handed Dirac neutrinos. Our analysis incorporates, for the first time, flavor-general New Physics effects in both neutrino production […]
Speaker: Daniel González Cuadra (IFT) Venue&Time: Red Room / 15:00 Abstract: Lattice gauge theories (LGTs) describe a broad range of phenomena in condensed matter and particle physics. A prominent example is confinement, responsible for bounding quarks inside hadrons such as protons or neutrons. When quark-antiquark pairs are separated, the energy stored in the string of […]
