Gravitational waves from phase transitions in the early universe
The universe went through at least two phase transitions very early in its history, related to the physics of the strong and electroweak interactions. I will report on recent 3-dimensional numerical simulations showing how a phase transition in the early universe generates gravitational waves from the sound it makes. The characteristic pattern of gravitational radiation from an electroweak transition (about 10 picoseconds after the Big Bang) is potentially observable at a future space-based detector.

UKRI Deadlines
Due to the implementation of a new UKRI funding system (TFS) there will be a fixed quarterly deadlines for some grants which would previously have been on open calls, this is to allow necessary system amendments and updates.
The first deadline after implementation will be 28th September 2023 and applies to those calls listed below:
EPSRC Post Doctoral Fellowship
