On Galilean Conformal Field Theory
Speaker:Bin Chen (Peking U.)
Abstract:In the past decade, the renaissance of conformal bootstrap has enriched our understanding of conformal field theory and AdS/CFT correspondence. It would be interesting to develop the bootstrap program for other field theories with conformal-like symmetries. In this talk, I will introduce our studies on Galilean conformal field theories in the past few years.

Strongly and weakly interacting massive particles
Speaker: Marco Nikolic (HEPHY)
Abstract:Whereas weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) - a promising DM candidate - were intensively studied in the past, the theory of strongly interacting massive particles (SIMPs) has been comparably less investigated.A possible way to generate such SIMPs is through chiral symmetry breaking. We consider a dark gauge group Sp(4) and N_f=2 fermions in the pseudo-real fundamental representation.We determine the chiral Lagrangian for SIMPs with the inclusion of a mass term and the Wess-Zumino-Witten term for degenerate and non-degenerate flavors.We analyse the breaking patterns and multiplet structure including a coupling to the Standard Model with a dark U(1) sector.The complete model is supported by lattice simulations.Besides DM,the universe may also be filled in significant number with a new form of relativistic particles,dark radiation,that have escaped detection to date.
