Chou Chien-Yu
  • Sokendai

The primary purpose of my visit to the University of Edinburgh is to advance my research in quantum cosmology under the mentorship of Professor Neil Turok, a leading expert in the field. My goal is to apply Monte Carlo simulations and the generalized Lefschetz thimble method to address the sign problem in quantum cosmology models, particularly in understanding quantum fluctuations in the early universe. The visit will provide me with the opportunity to refine my computational techniques, collaborate on theoretical developments, and contribute to the growing body of work in quantum cosmology.

Helen Brooks
  • IPPP, University of Durham

In this short visit, Helen will give a talk in the style of the alumni series to current students/staff about switching from particle physics to UKAEA and about research in fusion. Helen will also give one lecture in the Future of Energy course about the current state of fusion research and prospects for the future.

Paolo Benincasa
  • Max Planck Institute for Physics

Ongoing collaboration with Andrew McLeod, to give an amplitudes group seminar on the computation of cosmological correlators, and for discussion with members of the amplitudes group on the possibility of adapting computational methods from particle physics to the study of cosmological correlators.

Dorota Grabowska
  • University of Washington

Dorota is visiting to continue collaborations with M Hansen and begin a collaboration with Luigi Del Debbio. Dorota is an expert in Quantum Computing and this is an area of interest to various MSc students in the Higgs Centre and also the focus of a new PhD student advised by Luigi. Thus the visit will give Dorota the opportunity to interact with these students
