Masayuki Imai, “From Vesicles to Synthetic Minimal Cells”
A/1-106 - Seminarska soba fizike (F5) (Jamova)Life is a self-sustaining system that continuously proliferates by synthesizing membrane molecules from external raw materials, thereby enabling vesicle growth and division. Such living systems exist in a state markedly distinct from conventional physical systems, and elucidating the fundamental differences … Read More
Nandini Das: Peeping into dark matter scenarios – From freeze in to freeze out
https://zoom.us/j/3601731049?pwd=bVNQRjUxU2ExZ0cveWcxYXNUUGdjZz09 (A/1-106 - Seminarska soba fizike (F5))The existence of dark matter in the universe is an unavoidable fact while the nature of it still remains an unresolved mystery. We here try to explore the possibilities of having particle dark matter through different level of detection prospect. … Read More
Arnau Bas i Beneito: New methods to probe Standard Model Extensions via Proton Decay and Neutrino Masses
https://zoom.us/j/3601731049?pwd=bVNQRjUxU2ExZ0cveWcxYXNUUGdjZz09 (C/2-X - F1 čajnica)Baryon and lepton number are excellent low-energy symmetries of the Standard Model (SM) that tightly constrain the form of its extensions. In this paper we investigate the possibility that these accidental symmetries are violated in the deep UV, in such … Read More
Misha Gorshteyn: Cabibbo unitarity: anomaly (dis)appears
https://zoom.us/j/3601731049?pwd=bVNQRjUxU2ExZ0cveWcxYXNUUGdjZz09 (A/1-106 - Seminarska soba fizike (F5))Unitarity of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark mixing matrix is one of the cornerstones of the Standard Model. The unitarity constraint that involves the top-row matrix elements, $|V_{ud}|^2+|V_{us}|^2+|V_{ub}|^2=1$ is particularly important because all elements are measured very precisely permitting a test … Read More

Martin Schmaltz: Hubble tension update
https://www.youtube.com/@astroFMF/streams (F4 - FMF)This seminar will give an introduction to and status update of the Hubble tension, the 6 sigma discrepancy between the two most precise methods for measuring the expansion rate of our Universe. The most promising resolutions of the tension employ … Read More

David Kaplan: Shadow Matter
https://www.youtube.com/@astroFMF/streams (F2 - FMF)I will review how one gets classical physics from quantum theories. Then I will show that there are quantum states of the field theories of general relativity and electromagnetism that we typically ignore, but have interesting phenomenological effects. These states … Read More

Lorenzo Ubaldi: Schwinger current in de Sitter
https://zoom.us/j/94950883072 (F1 - tea room)We study classical background electric fields and the Schwinger effect in de Sitter space. We show that having a constant electric field in de Sitter requires the photon to have a tachyonic mass proportional to the Hubble scale. This has … Read More
