The 10th edition of the Higgs Centre School of Theoretical Physics will take place from the 9th-13th of June 2025. The scientific programme starts at 9:00 on Monday the 9th, and ends at 17:00 on Friday the 13th. The School comprises two in-depth lecture series, each involving five ...

This coming June the Higgs Centre will co-host the next meeting of the Fundamental Physics UK series. This is an event allowing the physics theory community in the UK within the STFC remit to interact, share knowledge and foster new collaborations. The meeting will discuss recent developments in String/M-theory ...

We are used to the notion of elementary particles that can be created, destroyed, and – in between – move freely through space according to rules codified by quantum field theory. Hence it came as an immense surprise when, a decade ago, a type of particle was theoretically proposed that defied these ...

Active matter has emerged as a field with strong ties to non-equilibrium soft condensed matter and biological physics. Successes of the field include describing the dynamics of motile microbes and flocks of birds, defect self-propulsion in liquid crystals, wound healing and tissue fluidization, modeling of colony growth, and much more ...

yt is a community-driven Python package for analyzing and visualizing complex spatial data. Since 2007, the yt package has expanded from supporting just a single astrophysical simulation data format to more than three dozen formats across several domains, including astronomy, seismology, nuclear engineering, molecular dynamics, oceanography, and satellite imaging. This ...
