"High energy physics" is the search for the fundamental principles of
physics, the basic
building blocks of Nature, and their interactions. Such ideas are
tested in accelerator experiments, and also connect with astrophysics
and cosmology.

A (partial) list of UCSD high energy theory publications can be found here.

We support a large and vibrant postdoctoral researcher program. The success of this program can be seen from the top-quality of our postdoctoral researchers, the important research that they've done at UCSD, and the extraordinarily high percentage who have subsequently gotten faculty positions. Our current and former postdocs can be found here. |
|
We mentor graduate students in their PhD thesis studies.
Students in the group interact closely with faculty, postdocs, and visitors.
Our graduating students have gotten postdoctoral research positions at places
including Fermilab, MIT, Stanford, and the Institute for Advanced Study.
Our current and former students can
be found here . |

Our group members interact closely with the experimental high energy group. Our interests also sometimes overlap with those of members of the astrophysics group, e.g. George Fuller (neutrinos) and Kim Griest (dark matter). We also interact with faculty in the Mathematics department, e.g. Mark Gross (Calabi-Yau geometry), Jeff Rabin (mathematical physics and string theory), Justin Roberts (topological quantum field theory), and Peter Teichner (topology). |
Our group is generously supported by the Department of Energy, grant DOE-FG03-97ER40546. |
