The conference aims to address the necessity of data science and High Performance Computers (HPC) in Theoretical Physics. The workshop will cover topics from particle physics – such as phenomenology and lattice QCD - to gravitation and cosmology, with a particular focus on the application of techniques from fields like artificial intelligence, machine learning and data generation.
The conference intends to promote networking between PhD students from different research areas of physics by providing a friendly and relaxed environment to interact and present research works. This will allow the participants to share information about how some tools and techniques are used across different subjects and will help to rebuild a sense of community in SEPnet that has been missing since the start of the pandemic.
There will be three main sections:
- scientific talks by world experts and SEPnet PhD researchers;
- a poster session to allow students to present their research and get feedback on the presentation;
- a career session, where former SEPnet PhD students will share their experience outside academia.
See the poster.
The conference will take place at the University of Southampton. See "Practical Info" section for more details.
