Description

The International Joint Workshop on the Standard Model and Beyond 2025 takes place on 9-12 Dec 2025 at the National Center for Theoretical Sciences, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan.

The Joint Workshop aims to bring theorists to discuss current ideas on recent developments in particle physics, cosmology and astroparticle physics in the context of testing the Standard Model and searches for new physics beyond the SM, offer a platform for collaboration between researchers from different institutes, and provide opportunities for young researchers to establish themselves in the community.

The meeting features invited plenary talks covering topics of recent interest, as well as a number of parallel sessions for junior scientists to present their work.

      Cosmological Quasiparticles and the Cosmological Collider NTU Cosmology Hall, 4F Lecture Hall

      NTU Cosmology Hall, 4F Lecture Hall

      In this talk, I will introduce the intriguing interplay between cosmology and strongly coupled dynamics, showing how temporary spectral features can leave lasting, observable imprints on the primordial fluctuation spectrum. Focusing on nearly conformal extensions of the Standard Model and employing AdS/CFT reasoning, I will demonstrate the emergence of gapped structures and distinct particle-like peaks in the scalar operator's spectral density within an inflationary setting. I will then estimate their contribution to cosmological observables, emphasizing unique, potentially detectable phenomena for future experiments, such as displaced oscillations in the squeezed bi-spectrum, originating from both fundamental and composite particles, and briefly touch upon the link between conformal symmetry breaking stabilization and these spectral signatures.

      Transformers for particle physics NTU Cosmology Hall, 4F Lecture Hall

      NTU Cosmology Hall, 4F Lecture Hall

      Collisions of high energy particles trigger multiple interactions and
      result in complex patterns of particles in the final state.
      Theoretical particle physics has been evolving continuously to deepen
      our understanding of these phenomena, to determine the fundamental
      interaction of particles and searching for unknown matters in our
      Universe. How might the recent advances in deep learning accelerate
      this process? In this talk, we will present our recent works, focusing
      on ideas related to Transformer architectures.
