Abstract: The baryon sector of the present universe is almost entirely made of matter and essentially no anti-matter. Relatively small abundances of anti-nucleons can...

Generalized Global Symmetries and Nonperturbative Quantum Flavodynamics - Seth Koren (Notre Dame U.)
Abstract: Generalized global symmetries are present in theories of particle physics, and understanding their structure can give insight into these theories and UV completions...

Abstract: I present a novel mechanism for creating primordial black holes and MACHOs. A heavy dissipative dark sector can come to dominate the...

The Bay Area Particle Theory Seminar aims to bring together particle theorists in the Bay Area, including UC Santa Cruz, SLAC, Stanford, San Francisco...

Abstract: Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) is the theory that describes strong interactions. Despite massive success in perturbative phenomena, this theory remains not very well understood...

Abstract: The thermal plasma in the early universe produced a guaranteed stochastic gravitational wave (GW) background, which peaks today in the microwave regime and...

Abstract: Neutrinos of cosmic origin are excellent messengers to investigate the Universe. The IceCube experiment discovered TeV-PeV neutrinos of astrophysical origin which opened a...

Abstract: The 2012 discovery of the Higgs boson with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) was a groundbreaking achievement for high energy physics, and it...

Abstract: We explore an odd class of QFTs where a hierarchy problem is resolved with new dynamics as opposed to new particles. The essential...
