Welcome to the Particle and Field Theory Group. Our group conducts research in a broad range of areas of Theoretical Particle Physics and Quantum Field Theory: Quantum Field Theory: Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD); QCD vacuum structure and confinement/deconfinement mechanism; Lattice QCD; Effective field theory; Nonperturbative methods; Strongly interacting field theories; Mathematical aspects of quantum field theory; Gauge theory. Particle Physics: Quark-gluon plasma phase transition of QCD at high temperature; Low-x physics; Hadronic scattering at high energy at the LHC; Heavy ion collisions; CP-violation; Anomalous magnetic moment of the muon (g-2); Electroweak phenomenology, including studies in Supersymmetry; Lepton number violation and precision electroweak measurements. Astro-Particle Physics: Brane gravity; Conformal gravity; General relativity and gravitation; Black holes; Relativistic astrophysics; Quantum cosmology; The nature of time.
