A pressing question in our quest to understand the Universe is how to unify quantum mechanics and gravity, the very small and the very large.

Theoretical Physics - From Outer Space to Plasma

Why is Quantum Gravity so hard?

Members of the Rudolf Peierls Centre for Theoretical Physics host a morning of Theoretical Physics roughly three times a year on a Saturday morning. The mornings consist of three talks pitched to explain an area of our research to an audience familiar with physics at about the second-year undergraduate level and are open to all Oxford Alumni. Topics include Quantum Mechanics, Black Holes, Dark Matter, Plasma, Particle Accelerators and The Large Hadron Collider.
