  1. 1. Exploring New Physics Through Collider and Gravitational Wave Measurements with Artificial Neural Networks: the Case Study of QCD-like Technicolor

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Ashar Ahmed Kamal; [2023]
    Keywords : Artificial Neural Networks; ANN; Beyond the Standard Model; BSM; parameter space scan; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : With physicists actively exploring Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) theories that may fill in the gaps of the Standard Model (SM), a fundamental question arises: which parameters hold physical significance? In this thesis, we present our initial progress towards the development of a model-independent artificial intelligence framework designed for conducting parameter space scans in BSM scenarios. Our framework incorporates several publicly available high-energy physics packages, namely SPheno, HiggsBounds, HiggsSignals, and CosmoTransitions. READ MORE

  3. 2. Supersymmetry in Quantum Mechanics

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Ludvig Chen; [2023]
    Keywords : Quantum Mechanics; Supersymmetry; Witten Index; Morse Theory;

    Abstract : The introduction of supersymmetry has led to great progress in the study of quantum field theories. Notably, with supersymmetry, properties of a quantum field theory can be computed with higher precision than what would otherwise be possible. In this project, we investigate supersymmetry in the context of quantum mechanics. READ MORE

  4. 3. The Impact of Swampland Conjectures

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Daniel Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : String theory; Quantum gravity; Swampland program; Effective field theories;

    Abstract : The Swampland program is way of sorting effective field theories based on conjectures of how an effective field theory consistent with quantum gravity should look like. In this thesis we take a closer look at the No Global Symmetries Conjecture, the Weak Gravity Conjecture, the de Sitter Conjecture and the Trans-Planckian Censorship Conjecture. READ MORE

  5. 4. Integrability of super spin chains in 6D N=(1,0) SCFTs

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Zuxian He; [2023]
    Keywords : 6D SCFTs; integrability; spin chains; representation theory; symmetry; oscillators; Lie algebra;

    Abstract : Superconformal field theories (SCFTs) are an important class of quantum field theories. These SCFTs have been a significant component in exploring and comprehending the fundamental framework of quantum field theories. READ MORE

  6. 5. Error propagation in nuclear models

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Artis Mucenieks; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis we perform error analysis of a nuclear model based on density-functional theory developed in Lund. The Lund model allows us to perform calculations of nuclear spectra more efficiently by constructing a simple effective Hamiltonian reproducing the quadrupole deformation and pairing interaction strength parameters of a spherical Hartree-Fock reference functional.
