Flowing into the future: Particle Jets in Quantum Field Theory and Phenomenology: March 21-25, 2022

Organized by: Christine Aidala (University of Michigan), Yang-Ting Chien (Georgia State University), Abhay Deshpande (Department of Physics and Astronomy, SBU), George Sterman (CN Yang Institute for Theoretical Physics) At high energies in quantum chromodynamics, particle jets provide an experimentally accessible manifestation of a change in degrees of freedom with time. The relationship between asymptotically short … Read more

Fuzzy Sphere Meets Bootstrap, November 6-8, 2023

Organized by Yin-Chen He, Zohar Komargodski, Leonardo Rastelli, and Slava Rychkov Conformal field theories (CFTs) represent a vital class of quantum field theories with wide-ranging applications, from quantum gravity to critical phenomena in both classical and quantum matter. CFTs in 3D and higher dimensions are strongly interacting, thus requiring the employment of non-perturbative tools. One such … Read more
