Description

What is the fundamental structure of matter? How do elementary particles interact? How does this shape the evolution of the Universe? Many questions in fundamental physics remain unanswered.

In our group, we combine theoretical calculations with experimental data to improve our understanding of the strong interaction and the properties of neutrinos and dark matter.

We collaborate with many different theoretical and experimental groups around the world.

Our research is funded by regional, national and european grants.

We regularly supervise Bachelor, Master and PhD students.
