squashed fuzzy CP^2
Speaker:Clemens Kerschbaumer (Univ. of Vienna)
Abstract:Im Rahmen des Seminars für Mathematische Physik: Among well studied fuzzy spaces like the fuzzy sphere and the fuzzy torus, extensive work on more complex flag varieties has been done. One prominent examples is fuzzy CP^2. As for the sphere, where the deformation into the squashed fuzzy S^2 gives rise to new physical properties, the fuzzy complex projective plane can be squashed along designated axes. This yields a solution of a dimensionally reduced Yang-Mills model. In this talk, some physical result as well as geometrical properties of squashed CP^2 will be discussed.

Light Flavour production in the ALICE experiment at the LHC
Speaker:Dr. Stefania Bufalino (Politecnico di Torino and Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare di Torino)
Abstract:The ultimate goal of heavy-ion collisions is the study of the properties of the deconfined and chirally restored state of matter known as the Quark-Gluon plasma. Collisions of lead ions have been studied at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at a center of mass energy per nucleon √sNN = 2.76 TeV (run I), and, more recently, at √sNN = 5.02 TeV (run II). ALICE is the LHC experiment dedicated to the study of heavy ion collisions. In this seminar, the main highlights about Light Flavour production in run I and early results from run II will be presented. The measurements cover a large number of hadron species (from pions to multi-strange baryons and light nuclei) and extend to the search of (anti-)hypernuclei and exotic bound states containing a Λ hyperon, such as the H-dibaryon and Λn. The measurements in pp collisions at ... [full abstract: https://indico.smi.oeaw.ac.at/event/178/]
