Our interests

The standard model of elementary particle interactions is confirmed with high precision by experimental measurements. Yet we are also certain that it is insufficient to describe all observations. We face several hard, presently unanswered questions, such as (i) what gives the neutrinos masses? (ii) what is the nature of dark matter in the universe? (iii) why there are more baryon than anti-baryon in the universe? (iv) what was the origin of inflation and what is the cause of current accelerated expansion?

Particle Physics Phenomenology group at Eötvös Loránd University (PPPheno@ELTE) was formed in October 2019 with the aim of finding answers to these questions based on phenomenological studies in elementary particle physics. Our work is supported by the Excellence grant of the Ministry of Innovation and Technology in Hungary.
