Scope

The purpose of this winter school is to provide PHD students and young postdocs in the Nordic countries with introductory courses in a range of the most important topics in the field of theoretical particle physics. Furthermore, the school will provide a way to bring together students and young postdocs across different fields, research institutions and countries.

Topics of School

• Cosmology
• Dark Matter
• Neutrino Physics
• Black holes
• String theory
• Scattering Amplitudes
• Holography and AdS/CFT correspondence
• Quantum Field Theory in Curved Space-Time
• Localization and Matrix Models
