High energy physics involves the study of the fundamental building blocks of nature at the shortest distances. These are the fundamental particles that are described by quantum fields such as the Higgs field found at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Our group studies theories beyond the Standard Model of particle physics both from theoretical and phenomenological perspectives.
For our latest developments/activities in this area, please see the listing below.
Because of the universality of gravitational interactions, it is generally expected that a stochastic gravitational wave (GW) ba
Discussion on the paper "Gravitational footprints of massive neutrinos and lepton number breaking"
CIDMA, the research unit Gr@v integrates, has annouced two one year postdoctoral positions starting in September 2020. Candidates should hold a Ph.D. in Mathematics or related areas (the scientific areas of Gr@v are elegible). The application period is May 14th-31st. More details can be found here and here.
Discussion on the paper "Counterterm method and thermodynamics of Hairy Black Holes in a Vector-Tensor theory with Abelian gauge symmetry breaking ", ArXiv:2004.08329
Here, the numerical data described in the paper "Black holes with synchronised Proca hair: linear clouds and fundamental non-linear solutions", arXiv:2004.09536 [gr-qc] [1], is made available for public use.
This data pertains the fundamental states (n=0) of these hairy black holes and spinning Proca stars. Some data for the excited states (n=1) was previously made available here.
