Dr. Miguel A. Sánchez-Conde, an ‘Atracción de Talento’ senior researcher at the Institute for Theoretical Physics (IFT) and UAM Department of Theoretical Physics, has been recently appointed convener of the Dark Matter and New Physics working group of the Fermi-LAT collaboration. This is the second time that Dr Sánchez-Conde will act as such, after a 2-years period back in 2014-15.
The committee provides advice and recommendations on scientific, technical and planning issues related to the B-Factory Project: the Belle experiment, SuperKEKB, and with the main focus on the progress of the Belle II experiment.
Los sistemas estables de isótopos de cadmio son considerados el paradigma de núcleos atómicos que vibran alrededor de una forma esférica. Un reciente trabajo, en el que participa la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM), demuestra que estos sistemas cuánticos tienen una estructura mucho más compleja de la que creíamos, en la que coexisten diferentes formas girando en lugar de vibrar. Los resultados se publican en Physical Review Letters.
A new Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network (MSCA-ITN) funded by the European Union H2020 programme named "European network for Particle physics, Lattice field theory and Extreme computing" (EuroPLEx) has recently been approved (Grant Agreement: 813942; duration: Jan. 2019 - Dec. 2022).
Durante tres días, del 6 al 8 de junio, los componentes del proyecto coordinado ESTALLIDOS, procedentes del CIEMAT, el Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía, el Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias y la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, que actúa como nodo coordinador, se reunieron en el CIEMAT para hablar de sus actividades recientes y también de cómo abordar los retos que se presentan en el futuro cercano.
Durante los pasados 20 y 27 de abril se ha celebrado en nuestro campus la tercera edición de las Jornadas de Astronomía en la UAM, una actividad de carácter anual organizada por el Observatorio Astronómico de la UAM y la Agrupación Astronómica Antares, en colaboración con la Asociación Nacional de Estudiantes Universitarios de Ciencias Físicas NUSGREM.
New results from the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC reveal how strongly the Higgs boson interacts with the heaviest known elementary particle, the top quark, corroborating our understanding of the Higgs and setting constraints on new physics.
Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, 13-16 de marzo de 2018
Hyper-Kamiokande is a scientific project supported by relevant Japanese institutes and lead by ICRR U. Tokyo and KEK, and includes the involvement of scientific organisations globally (see http://www.hyper-k.org)
The meeting is expected to attract 100 participants, including renowned figures in the field of neutrinos research and their respective research teams.
These meetings are usually held at Kashiwa campus, Tokyo University. The current meeting being one of the few times that it takes place outside Japan; this is due to the excellent working relations between Japanese and Spanish scientists in this field of Science
The American Physical Society (APS) has selected 147 Outstanding Referees for 2018 that have demonstrated exceptional work in the assessment of manuscripts published in the Physical Review journals. A full list of the Outstanding Referees is available online at http://journals.aps.org/OutstandingReferees.
The detection of the gravitational wave GW170817 produced by the merger of two neutron stars and the electromagnetic signals associated to it has been a breakthrough for many areas of Physics.
