Fall Workshop of the RTG 2044

9 Oct 2025, 08:45 → 10 Oct 2025, 18:00 Europe/Zurich

Lecture Hall 01 007 (AP Building)

This year's Fall workshop will take place from October 9 - 10, 2025 at the University of Freiburg

Venue: Lecture Hall 01 007 in the AP building, Hermann-Herder-Str. 6, Freiburg

 

Coffee breaks and poster session will be set up in the Physics Highrise, ground floor.

Thursday 9 October

08:55 → 09:00 Welcome & Organization

Speaker: Markus Schumacher (University of Freiburg (DE))

09:00 → 11:00 Lecture: Electroweak Baryogenesis, Part 1

Electroweak baryogenesis links the origin of the Universe’s
matter–antimatter asymmetry to physics at the electroweak scale. These
lectures review the observational evidence for a cosmic baryon
asymmetry, present Sakharov’s three conditions for baryogenesis, and
discuss how and why the Standard Model falls short. Emphasis will be
placed on sphaleron-mediated baryon number violation, a too small CKM
CP violation, and the need for a strong first-order electroweak phase
transition. About the latter point, we will go through the main
theoretical tools to grasp the phase diagram of the Standard Model.
