Experimental High-Energy Physics

by wp_doctorados | Dec 11, 2025 | Research Areas

Ordinary matter is ultimately composed of elementary particles (quarks and leptons), and the Standard Model is the theory that describes how these elementary particles interact through three of the four fundamental forces of the universe (strong, weak, and...

Nuclear Structure, Lattice Field Theories and Condensed Matter

by wp_doctorados | Dec 11, 2025 | Research Areas

Quantum field theory is the fundamental framework for describing elementary particles. However, understanding its non-perturbative aspects – especially relevant for the study of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the theory of strong interaction within the Standard...

String Theory and Supergravity

by wp_doctorados | Dec 11, 2025 | Research Areas

One of the key goals of Particle Physics is to provide a deep understanding of the fundamental forces of Nature. In this context, achieving compatibility between quantum mechanics and Einstein’s theory of gravity is one of the main challenges of theoretical physics in...

Standard Model Phenomenology and Beyond, Astroparticle Physics and Gravitation

by wp_doctorados | Dec 11, 2025 | Research Areas

Our goal is to understand the origin of the mass of all elementary particles, as well as their fundamental properties. In 2012, a major step forward in this direction was made with the discovery at CERN’s LHC accelerator of a Higgs particle with a mass of 125 GeV,...
