About
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.
Hydrodynamics of Quantum Many-Body Systems Out of Equilibrium
Can we apply hydrodynamics to systems with extensively many conservation laws Can we apply hydrodynamics to systems with extensively many conservation...
Why Hydrodynamics?
What is hydrodynamics and why does it apply over 20 orders of magnitude in energy and length. Welcome, Prof Julia Yeomans FRS, Head of Rudolf Peierls ...
Strings and Fields
Will strings be the theory of everything?, presented by Prof Luis Fernando Alday.
Classical and Quantum Black Holes
Prof March-Russell explains our latest understanding of black holes, some of the most mysterious objects in the Universe.
Why is Quantum Gravity so hard?
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.
Machine learning techniques in modern quantum-mechanics experiments
In this talk, Dr Elliott Bentine shall discuss how recent experiments have exploited machine-learning techniques, both to optimize the operation of th...
Machine Learning and String Theory
Professor Andre Lukas will discuss how string theorists have started to use methods from data science - particularly machine learning - to analyse the...
An Introduction to deep learning
Professor Ard Louis gives a basic introduction to deep learning for physicists and addresses a few questions such as: Is the hype around deep learning...
Welcome by Ian Shipsey Head of the Department of Physics
Ian Shipsey give an update on the department and introduces the next three talk on 'AI in Physics'.
