Exhibition of research posters in the mechanical workshop
A team of UZH physicists from three different generations, Daniel Wyler, Gino Isidori, and Felix Wilsch, have published a comprehensive review of the Standard Model of particle physics viewed as an Effective Field Theory.
Two dimensional topological crystalline superconductivity has been predicted and experimentally observed in two-dimensional Shiba lattices: these research results are now published in Nature Physics.
The observation paves the way for exploring new physics scenarios. Martina Ferrillo, a PhD student in the group of Prof. Nico Serra is one of the main proponents of the analysis - congratulations to her for this impressive result!
who has been elected as Trigger Coordinator of the CMS experiment
The Sinergia project, co-led by Prof. Nico Serra, aims to explore synergies in data analysis by combining expertise from particle physics, healthcare, and mathematics. Working alongside Prof. Milo Puhan (Epidemiology, UZH), Prof. Alessio Figalli (Mathematics, ETHZ), and Prof. Andrea Burden (Pharmacology ETHZ), the team focuses on causal machine learning applied to high-dimensional problems. The primary objective is to address multimorbidity by leveraging advanced data analysis techniques from these diverse disciplines, ultimately fostering innovative solutions in healthcare.
for winning the highly prestigious Guido Altarelli award "for outstanding achievements in understanding the nature of the Higgs boson, including precision studies of the quark couplings and decay channels"
Researchers at Princeton University have experimentally observed the Kekulé spiral state in graphene as predicted by a collaboration of researchers from Zurich (group Neupert), Oxford and Berkeley.
The digital gate structure employed in quantum computations provides a solution to the challenge of coping with the exponentially increasing memory requirements for storing a quantum state during time evolution. These are now published in Physical Review Research.

The XENON collaboration presented new results from XENONnT. Thanks to the five times lower background, XENONnT set new limits on interaction of WIMPs with ordinary matter.
The two experiments report the first observation of neutrinos at the LHC which paves the way for exploring new physics scenarios. The group of Nico Serra crucially contributed to the detector and the analysis - congratulation!
Using high-temperature superconducting nanowires, single-photon detectors can now be operated at elevated temperatures, making them more useful for a wide range of applications.
Congratulations to Titus Neupert for getting an SNF Consolidator Grant for Interacting Topological Quantum Chemistry
Theoretical particle physicists from the group Grazzini have completed a new precision calculation for the production of the Higgs boson in association with a top-antitop quark pair at hadron colliders
