Particle and Nuclear Physics, Cosmology and Gravitation

Research in these areas focuses on black holes and neutron stars, including properties of nuclei and nuclear/quark matter, ab-initio nuclear theory, the strong interaction, neutrino physics, beyond-the-standard-model phenomenology and cosmology including dark matter, and characteristics of the gravitational interaction.
