Title: Stückelberged Unimodular vs Goldstino Brane Approach to Pure dS Supergravity Abstract: Recent progress in understanding de Sitter spacetime in supergravity and string theory has led to the development of a 4D supergravity with spontaneously broken supersymmetry allowing… Read More

Title: Spin 1/2 from Colour and a Little More Abstract: The theta vacuum in QCD is the standard vacuum, twisted by the exponential of the Chern-Simons term. But what is the quantum operator U(g) for winding number 1?… Read More

Title: Beyond quantum computing: the physics of hybrid quantum systems Abstract: The theory of the universal quantum computer has brought us rapid technological developments, together with remarkable improvements in how we understand quantum theory. There are, however, reasons… Read More

The School of Theoretical Physics at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies has a number of PhD studentship places available in theoretical physics, to start as early as March 2022 but no later than September 2022. These positions… Read More

The Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies (DIAS) invites applications for a 4 years PhD position in marine seismology. The position is at the Geophysics Section, Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies (DIAS), and is part of a project on… Read More

The Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies (DIAS) is offering an exciting opportunity to lead innovative public engagement projects at the historic DIAS Dunsink Observatory. We are seeking an enthusiastic and creative person to run public-facing events including Ireland’s… Read More

Title: Towards quantum sensing using nonlinear quantum systems Abstract: Quantum technology promises new types of quantum machines including quantum computers, communications and sensors.  In this talk I will focus on the more near-term goal of developing precision sensors… Read More

Title: Neutrino Physics Abstract: We give a general overview of neutrino mass and mixing, includingneutrino oscillations, experimental open questions, possible mixingpatterns, family symmetry, neutrino mass limits, theoretical origin ofneutrino mass, and the littlest seesaw model. Talk – Video… Read More
