The Theoretical Physics group at LNBL consists of senior staff members at Berkeley Lab, faculty members in the Physics Dept. at the University of California at Berkeley, postdoctoral fellows and visitors, as well as graduate students from UC Berkeley.


Research activities

The group's efforts can be divided into two major categories: particle theory and formal theory.

Theoretical particle physics research is concerned with the standard model and possible deviations from, and extensions to, it. The group has worked on electroweak symmetry breaking, supersymmetry, grand unification, perturbative QCD, cosmology, and methods to test the standard model in current and future experiments.

The formal theory group works on string theory, quantum gravity, conformal field theory, quantum groups, topological field theory and the foundations of quantum mechanics.


Seminars (Schedule)

The group's weekly seminar is held on Monday afternoon at 2:30 pm. Its location is usually 50A-5132, LBNL or 430 Birge Hall on the UC Berkeley campus. The seminar chairman is Prof Lawrence Hall .

The formal part of the group holds a seminar on Tuesday afternoon at 2:15 pm at the Oppenheimer Center, Birge Hall on the UC Berkeley campus. The seminar chairman is Prof Hirosi Ooguri .

The particle physics part of the group holds a seminar on Wednesday at 12:00 pm in 50A-5132, LBNL. The seminar chairman is Prof Hitoshi Murayama .
