Gravitational Wave Probes of Physics Beyond Standard Model 4

23 Jun 2025, 09:00 → 27 Jun 2025, 18:30 Europe/Warsaw

Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw

Bogumiła Świeżewska (University of Warsaw), John Ellis, Marek Lewicki (University of Warsaw), Nobuchika Okada, Qaisar Shafi, Anish Ghoshal (University of Wasrsaw, Poland)

The purpose of this workshop is to discuss how gravitational waves may serve as tools to explore possible fundamental physics beyond the Standard Model, such as first-order phase transitions in the early Universe, cosmic strings, primordial black holes and scenarios for cosmological inflation. In addition, it will explore how gravitational wave signals may reveal possible modifications of general relativity. With these aims in mind, the workshop will bring together experts in particle physics, cosmology and the gravitational wave community.

• Lara Sousa (Porto U) [cosmic defects]
  
• Fabrizio Rompineve (UA Barcelona) [cosmic defects]
  
• Alberto Roper Pol (U Geneva) [phase transition]
