Introduction to the Theoretical Physics Team

Theoretical physics is dedicated to using physical principles and mathematical methods to study fundamental and core theoretical issues in physics, interpret physical phenomena, reveal the underlying basic physical laws, and predict new physical phenomena. The research directions of the theoretical physics team cover various fields of traditional high - energy physics theory. These directions intersect and are closely related to each other. Meanwhile, they also complement and promote each other with the research content of the astronomy and TianQin teams in the college.

The team currently has 14 faculty and researchers, including 5 professors, 6 associate professors, 3 full - time researchers and post - doctoral fellows, as well as 36 postgraduate students.

The main research directions of the team include:

  • Cosmology (cosmological inflation and dark energy; gravitational theory at cosmic scales);
  • Gravitational theory and field theory (gravitational waves; black holes; quantum gravity; gauge/gravity duality; quantum field theory in curved spacetime; non - equilibrium quantum field theory);
  • Nuclear physics (theory of hot and dense nuclear matter; heavy - ion collision physics; nuclear structure and decay; nuclear astrophysics);

④ Particle physics (new physics beyond the Standard Model; dark matter theory; TeV physics; particle astrophysics, Higgs boson physics).

Main Recruitment Directions: Cosmology, gravitational theory, quantum field theory, string theory, particle and nuclear physics, particle astrophysics, high - energy nuclear physics, quantum physics.
