Beyond Effective Field Theory - Isabel Garcia Garcia
Offered By: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore cutting-edge concepts in theoretical physics with this conference talk from the 2022 Snowmass Theory Frontier Conference at KITP. Delve into topics beyond Effective Field Theory as Isabel Garcia Garcia presents a 22-minute lecture covering 't Hooft naturalness, global symmetries, the Weak Gravity Conjecture, and the Cosmological Constant problem. Gain insights into quantitative understanding, EFT consistency from a bottom-up approach, and potential directions beyond ordinary symmetries. Engage with this recording that brings together experts in particle theory, formal/string theory, cosmological and astro-particle theory, and quantum information science, offering a unique opportunity to explore recent advances and future opportunities in High Energy Physics.
