The Theoretical Cosmology and Elementary Particle Physics research team explores various aspects of particle physics, gravitational phenomena, and cosmic studies. Their work encompasses investigations into dark energy and dark matter, developing innovative theories about spacetime, and forecasting how elementary particles might behave in theoretical frameworks extending beyond established physics models. Certain projects utilize advanced computational techniques on leading supercomputer systems. The team actively seeks motivated undergraduate students to collaborate on groundbreaking research about the fundamental constituents and interactions shaping our cosmos. Additionally, they integrate their scientific discoveries into academic instruction, offering courses on contemporary developments in relativity, cosmology, and particle physics.
