Enrico Morgante: Gravitational waves from confinement in improved holographic QCD

https://zoom.us/j/3601731049?pwd=bVNQRjUxU2ExZ0cveWcxYXNUUGdjZz09 (A/1-106 - Seminarska soba fizike (F5))

I will discuss gravitational waves produced during the confinement phase transition in SU(N) Yang-Mills, using a holographic description. The key ingredient will be the construction of the effective action, with the kinetic term playing an important role. https://indico.ijs.si/event/2680/

Petr Šulc, “DNA and RNA nanotechnology: molecular computing, therapeutics, and the quest for the holy grail of self-assembly”

A/1-106 - Seminarska soba fizike (F5) (Jamova)

The control over the self-assembly of complex structures is a long-standing challenge of biomimetic nanotechnology, as the desired assembly pathway is often kinetically derailed by the formation of competing alternative structures or amorphous aggregates. The goal of inverse design problem … Read More

Borut Bajc: E6

C/2-X - F1 čajnica (Jamova)

I will motivate the use of E6 grand unified theory and describe a  realistic E6 GUT which gives rise to novel possible intermediate stages.  https://indico.ijs.si/event/2874/

Jonathan Kriewald: Lepton Number Violation at the LHC

https://zoom.us/j/3601731049?pwd=bVNQRjUxU2ExZ0cveWcxYXNUUGdjZz09 (A/1-106 - Seminarska soba fizike (F5))

Numerous well-motivated extensions of the Standard Model, notably models linked to the generation of neutrino masses and to searches for neutrinoless double-beta decay, predict the existence of lepton-number-violating (LNV) processes. In particular, the type II seesaw and the left-right symmetric … Read More
