The moduli space of Supersymmetric gauge theories with 8 supercharges has a rich structure of symplectic singularities associated with degenerations in which additional massless states arise. These are neatly arranged into phase diagrams that encode the different sets of massless states, with information on the moduli that are needed to be tuned in order to move from one phase to another. We will present results from studies of families of quivers, including those on the affine grassmanian of finite dimensional Lie algebras. ; part of the London TQFT Journal Club (please register at https://london-tqft.vercel.app)
