Title: Particle physics phenomenology in Uppsala
Place: Seminar room in House 11 (OBS! Roslagstullsbacken 11, room 112:028)
Abstract: "An overview is given about research projects in the Uppsala
phenomenology group. A main theme is QCD, with the interplay between
hard/perturbative and soft/non-perturbative processes and using
Monte-Carlo-based models for detailed comparisons with experimental
data. This has given improved understanding of proton structure (model
for parton distributions, interpretation of low-Q2 structure function)
and of hadronic final states (diffraction, rapidity gaps, charmonium
etc) involving effects of multi-gluon processes and soft colour
interactions. Connections to recent heavy ion collision data indicating
the quark-gluon plasma is presently being explored. A tour into
astroparticle physics involved simulations of neutrino fluxes from
cosmic ray interactions. Also physics beyond the Standard model is
considered, presently with charged Higgs in SUSY."

Title: Status of Neutrino Oscillations
Time: Wednesday, September 24, at 13.15
Place: Seminar room in House 23 (OBS! Roslagstullsbacken 23,
room 132:028)
Abstract: "A review of the current status of neutrino oscillations is
given. The implications of solar and atmospheric neutrino experiments
and the K2K accelerator and KamLAND reactor experiments are discussed,
and a global fit to all data in the framework of three neutrino flavours
is presented. Furthermore, the problems to reconcile the LSND evidence
for oscillations with all the other experimental resluts in the
framework of four neutrinos and CPT violating scenarios are discussed."
