Triangle Seminar London - Theoretical Physics

Directions

We are located at the 6th floor of the G.O. Jones Building on the Mile End Campus, midway between Stepney Green and Mile End Tube stations, approximately 15-20 minutes from central London on the Central or District lines. If exiting Stepney Green tube station, turn left and walk along the Mile End Road for approximately 300 metres. The G.O. Jones (Physics) building is to the right of the main college building, which is fronted by a clocktower and lawn. If exiting Mile End tube station, turn left and walk approximately 300 metres until you are opposite the main college building. A more detailed description can be found here.

Heterotic M-theory simplified

Regular Seminar Ian Moss (Newcastle)

at:
14:00 QMW
room 112

abstract:

The theory of supergravity on manifolds with boundary leads to very tightly constrained boundary conditions. When applied to low energy heterotic M theory, these boundary conditions are inconsistent with the work of Horava and Witten, but lead to a simplification of their action. The reduction of the new theory throws up some interesting new insights into gaugino condensation and no-scale supergravity models. The new theory also suggests the existence of a new type of index theorem.

Exploring the Landscape of Flux Vacua

Regular Seminar Gianguido Dall'Agata (CERN)

at:
14:00 QMW
room 112

abstract:

I will discuss some features of string theory flux vacua that have not been explored before. Inspired by the analogy with the 4-dimensional black-hole solutions, I will show that the moduli fixing by fluxes can be described by an attractor mechanism. The discussion will be mainly focussed on non-Kaeheler attracting manifolds. I will then describe the general features of the domain-wall solutions interpolating between different vacua, explaining the vacua resolution by tunnelling and the (meta)stability properties of de Sitter uplifts.
