IAS High Energy Theory Seminar

October 04, 2024 | 11:00am - 12:15pm

Abstract: In recent years, there have been various activities trying to better understand the interplay between non-invertible global symmetries and boundary conditions in quantum field theories, with applications ranging from scattering of solitons...

Princeton University High Energy Theory Seminar

September 27, 2024 | 11:00am - 12:15pm

Abstract: First introduced in the 60s, positivity bounds for S-matrices have undergone a revival in the past few years, with systematic implementations that improve by the day. Among the recent results are sharp bounds on the EFTs of various gauge...

Princeton University Dark Cosmos Seminar

September 24, 2024 | 4:00pm - 5:00pm

Abstract: Axion dark matter thermalizes by gravitational self-interactions and forms a Bose-Einstein condensate.  It is shown that the rethermalization of the axion fluid during the initial collapse of large scale overdensities at cosmic dawn...
