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.
Room: Leonardo Building - Euler Lecture Hall

Abstract. Despite the hopes and the excellent experimental performance, the main detectors of the LHC, CMS and ATLAS, have not discovered any new elementary particle so far. The search is however ongoing. It is conceivable that new physics involves light feebly-interacting particles that are emitted in the forward direction beyond the angular reach of these detectors. There is a rich program of forward experiments which can test such models. In this talk, I will discuss the potential of FASER$\nu$ and SND@LHC experiments in searching for new physics.

Abstract. Last 50 years' developments have revealed deep relations between thermodynamics and gravity as formulated in Einstein general relativity, despite their apparent differences. These relations seem so fundamental and deep that they have prompted the idea that they may be telling us about the very nature of gravity. In this talk I review these salient features and discuss recent developments in the connection between gravity and thermodynamics. In particular, I describe how general covariance in gravity theories on spacetimes with a boundary leads to laws of thermodynamics at the boundary. We briefly discuss implications of these considerations for questions regarding black holes.
