Title: How many new particles do we need?
Date (JST): Wed, Dec 04, 2024, 15:30 - 17:00
Place: Lecture Hall
Abstract: The Standard Model of particle physics (SM) and Einstein general relativity are extremely successful in describing almost all phenomena observed in Nature so far, spanning distances from a fraction of Fermi to thousands of Mpc. I will deliberate on the question formulated in the title, given that the SM does not allow neutrino oscillations, does not have a candidate for dark matter in the Universe, and does not explain the observed cosmological dominance of matter over antimatter.
