Claudio Andrea Manzari:
Title: Unsolved Puzzles in Particle Physics
 
Abstract:
I will explore two of the most profound open questions in particle physics, focusing on some exciting directions of my ongoing research activity: the strong CP problem and the flavor puzzle. I will begin with an overview of the strong CP problem, highlighting proposed solutions based on parity and time-reversal symmetries and their rich phenomenology, which can be probed at present and future collider experiments. I will then turn to the axion solution, including my recent proposal for a network of gamma-ray satellites, currently under construction, that could enable axion detection in the event of a galactic supernova. Finally, I will introduce the flavor puzzle and discuss the intriguing possibility that some fermion masses arise solely through quantum effects.
