MCFP director Raman Sundrum commented on the latest news from the LHC in the article "What No New Particles Means for Physics" by Natalie Wolchover for Quanta Magazine. Wolchover also spoke to Nima Arkani-Hamed (IAS, Princeton) and Albert de Roeck (CERN, University of Antwerp), who have both recently presented their research at MCFP.
A New Scientist magazine article, titled "Is the Universe Left Handed" online and "Is Physics Moving to the Right?" in print, on "Left-right symmetric models" (a model that was suggested by Mohapatra, Pati and Senjanovic in 1974-75) mentions a recent paper by MCFP's Rabindra Mohapatra and Bhupal Dev of The University of Manchester, UK.
Xiangdong Ji was featured in a Science’s Career Magazine article, December 12, on China’s economic rise, subsequent advances in the sciences and recruiting scholars trained abroad.
Rabindra Mohapatra presented a plenary talk on "TeV scale lepton number violation and origin of matter" at the conference "Discrete 2014," King's College, London, UK, December 2-7. The meeting was a celebration of 150 years of Maxwell's equation and focused on the role of symmetries in particle physics.
