Today\'s event: ASIAA/NTU CCMS/NTU Physics Joint Colloquium
截止日期:2011-06-07

Speaker: Hitoshi Murayama, IPMU and UC Berkeley

Topic: Quantum Universe

Time: 6/7 (Tuesday) 14:20 - 15:10

Place: Room 104, CCM-New Physics Building





Abstract: What is the Universe made of? How did it come to be? Why do we exist? This kind of fundamental questions about the Universe used to be just philosophy, but are now coming into the realm of quantitative science. The key is in quantum physics of elementary particles that determined the evolution of the Universe when it was very young. I will discuss this amazing connection between the large (the Universe) and the tiny (elementary particles), in the context of current and forthcoming experiments.



Brief Bio: 村山斉教授 (Professor Hitoshi Murayama) 現任UC Berkeley物理系的教授,同時也是東京大學的數物連攜宇宙研究機構 (Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe) 的主任。曾獲Nishinomiya Yukawa Commemoration Prize in Theoretical Physics, 美國物理協會 (APS) fellow、普林斯頓高等研究院 (Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton) 自然科學院的會員等學術榮譽。村山教授是基本粒子物理、宇宙學等領域的專家,這次的演講正是關於兩者(大宇宙和小粒子)之間的關係,您千萬不可錯過。
