High Energy seminars are held on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 14:30 p.m. in the Luigi Stasi Seminar Room (1st floor).
Informal seminars may also take place on Mondays and Fridays in the Euler Lecture Hall (Lower level '0').
String seminars in Trieste is a monthly activity organized jointly by the High Energy Physics groups of ICTP and SISSA. Each event consists of two seminars given by two external speakers. The aim is to gather all theoretical physicists working in string theory and related topics in the Trieste area, and have the opportunity to get updated on what's going on in our field world-wide. The seminars take place either at ICTP or SISSA, alternately. Link to the Webpage for more information and future activities.
All seminars are announced on the High Energy board (2nd floor, near the High Energy Secretariat), and on ICTP notice boards.
ICTP is also happy to share information about activities hosted by its joint institute with Trieste science centres, the Institute for Fundamental Physics of the Universe (IFPU). IFPU Colloquia are seminars intended for a broad audience on topics related to the IFPU research lines. The venue for IFPU Colloquia is Lecture Hall D, in the basement of the former SISSA Main Bldg. Please check here for more information on all activities taking place at IFPU.
The mail list for our ICTP seminars is he-sem@lists.ictp.it
If you are interested in subscribing to the SISSA mailing lists, you should follow the instructions on the high-energy mailing list seminars or all the mailing lists.

Abstract. In this talk the Assisted Annihilation framework that generates thermal sub-GeV dark matter through a novel annihilation between pairs of dark matter and standard-model-like states, called the "assister" will be presented. The feasibility of such non-standard annihilation topology to reproduce the observed relic density of dark matter while remaining in consonance with cosmological bounds will be discussed in a model independent way. A simple multipartite scalar extension of the Standard Model where Assisted Annihilation can dominantly drive the thermal freeze out of dark matter in certain regions of the parameter space will be sketched. It is demonstrated that for photophilic assisters these models may be probed by indirect detection and fixed target experiments.
