*PHYSICS COLLOQUIUM *

4:00 PM

Small Hall, Room 111

*Dr. Bastian Kubis *[Host: Professor Carone]

University of Bonn

*Title of Talk:*

/"/ /Strong interactions and the precision frontier in particle physics"/

*Abstract:*

Understanding the strong interactions with high precision is becoming a 
prerequisite for progress in nuclear and particle physics in many 
different facets. It requires a careful interplay between modern 
experimental efforts, model-independent theoretical interpretation, and 
lattice QCD simulations.

There are at least two important perspectives for such efforts: we try 
to understand the theory of low-energy strong interactions as such; or 
we need to quantify it with high precision in order to interpret 
electroweak experiments, which may also serve as low-energy precision 
searches for signals of physics beyond the Standard Model.

I will highlight this area of current research with three examples:

1. the mass of the nucleon and its connection to pionic atoms;

2. hadronic contributions to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon;

3. the role of the strong interactions for CP violation in weak decays.
