Holography lectures by Joan Simon This is an introductory lecture series for PhD students on Holography given by Joan Simon GR as an effective gauge field theory Classical black hole thermodynamics Unruh effect stressing entanglement in QFT Quantum black holes leading to the holographic principle Motivating AdS/CFT (no string ...

I will describe recent work with Latham Boyle which provides a framework for a new, minimal and predictive cosmology requiring no new particles beyond those already present in the standard model (including right handed neutrinos). We start from the observation that a realistic cosmological background, dominated by radiation at early ...

Higgs-Maxwell workshops are a series of annual one-day meetings to discuss the current topics in theoretical and experimental particle physics and the prospects for future discoveries. The meeting is organised by the Universities of Durham, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Lancaster, and is held at the Royal Society of Edinburgh in Edinburgh ...

To be announced.

​Non-equilibrium processes play important roles at many length scales, from controlling chromatin interactions within a cell nucleus to governing the collective dynamics of fish schools. This Summer School will bring together early career researchers and students working across these scales. By identifying common insights between disciplines, this meeting aims to ...

As part of the Higgs Centre’s Decennial celebrations, we are planning to hold an alumni meeting on 25 June 2022. Considering the current situation is still so uncertain, we will also provide an online/hybrid experience. Registration for this event will begin early 2022, however, to gauge interest, we ...

The 51st edition of the ISMD conference series, ISMD 2022, will be held at Atholl Palace in Pitlochry, pictured below. As always, it will bring together physicists from across particle, nuclear and astro-physics for talks and discussions on all aspects and consequences of the strong nuclear force and complex final ...
