The workshop "Current Topics in Fundamental Physics" on the 16th of August will bring together experts from theoretical particle physics, cosmology and mathematics to discuss the latest developments at the interface of these three research areas.
Research in fundamental physics aims to answer questions about the fundamental constituents of our Universe, and about the laws that govern their interactions. There are strong indications from physics at infinitesimal and cosmic distances that the current understanding of the laws of nature is only approximate. This one-day workshop brings together experts from different areas to exchange about current research directions and includes results obtained in the European Research Council (ERC) funded project "Novel structures in scattering amplitudes" of Prof. Dr. Johannes Henn, director at the Max Planck Institute for Physics.
