Particle Physics and Quantum Field Theory

We conduct research in a broad range of areas of Theoretical Particle Physics and Quantum Field Theory:

Quantum Field Theory: Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD); QCD vacuum structure and confinement/deconfinement mechanism; Lattice QCD; Effective field theory and chiral models; Nonperturbative methods; Strongly interacting field theories; Mathematical aspects of quantum field theory; Gauge theory.
Particle Physics: Quark-gluon plasma phase transition of QCD at high temperature; Neutrinos; Low-x physics; Hadronic scattering at high energy at the LHC; Heavy ion collisions; CP-violation; Anomalous magnetic moment of the muon (g-2); rare meson decays; form factors, parton distributions and generalized parton distributions of the nucleon
Astro-Particle Physics: Inflationary cosmology; Dark Matter; Neutrino physics; Brane gravity; Conformal gravity; General relativity and gravitation; Black holes; Relativistic astrophysics; Quantum cosmology; The nature of time
