Nico Sanchis-Gual selected for an FCT 6 years junior research grant
Nico Sanchis-Gual was one of the 8 selected researchers for a junior grant, nationwide, within 74 applicants in the Physical Sciences panel, in the fourth individual call for scientific employment stimulus, promoted by FCT. Congratulations Nico!
Visit of T. Harko and M. Sanchis Lozano
Our group had the pleasure to host the visits of Prof. Tiberiu Harko and Prof. Miguel Angel Sanchis Lozano, who presented stimulating seminars on modified gravity and particle physics/cosmology.

Searching for new physics using angular correlations in e+ e- colliders (with some analogies to cosmology)
Speaker

Venue
Only on campus (Mathematics Department room 11.2.21)
Event type
Correlations play a fundamental role in many branches of physics, from quantum mechanics to particle physics and cosmology. In particular, the astonishing homogeneity of the angular distribution of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation across the sky (measured with high precision by the WMAP and Planck missions) requires of an inflationary epoch right after the Big Bang.
Lund Workshop
Great COST Advanced School on the physics of dark matter and the hidden sector, at Lund, Sweeden, co-organized by A. Morais. In the photo the Gr@v team members that attended the school with some close collaborators.
Information for Prospective Ph.D. students
Are you interested in doing research in topics such as black hole physics/mathematics, gravitational waves, numerical relativity, cosmology and high energy particle physics? Do you have (or are you finishing) a M.Sc. degree in Physics or Maths?
If so, and you would like pursue a PhD at Gr@v, there's a few steps you need to follow.
Journal Clubs 2021/22 kick off
Gr@v Journal Clubs for 2021/22 have started. Researchers/students from other groups/institutions wanting to attend (they are online) feel free to contact us.
