Mini Workshop


28 Mar, 2022 - 01 Apr, 2022

Phase transitions in particle physics

Abstract

The workshop is organised by the INFN Strong-2020 (http://www.strong-2020.eu) community, in the framework of the activities of the Nt-6 Network Lattice Hadrons. It is devoted to the study of the phases and phase transitions in particle physics, within and beyond the standard model, with emphasis on the lattice approach. We foresee invited talk from a non-lattice experts, possibly, but not limited to, belonging to the larger Strong-2020 community. Lattice talks will be preferably given by younger colleagues, and we would like to reserve time for discussions. The five days format allows eight sessions (discarding Monday morning and Friday afternoon). A typical session may comprise the above mentioned introductory talk(s), discussion, break and topical talks; Thursday morning includes free time, and an organisational and planning meeting.

Topics

Thermal phase transition in QCD
The nature of the Quark Gluon Plasma phase and QCD topology
Cosmological implications of the QGP and the QCD axion
Conformal phase transition as a paradigm for a composite Higgs, strong electroweak transition
Methodological challenges, the sign problem and current approaches to handle it
Machine Learning as a tool for the analysis of phase transitions
Model field theories, spin models, renormalisation group and universality.
