Phd in Theoretical Physics in Europe

[Aisenor]

Hello, I am a student with a M.Sc. in theoretical physics in search of a PHD. I would like to know which groups in Europe have some relevance in the context of QFT, in particular the problem of the mass in particle physics (no Higgs mechanism), Renormalization Group,.. and General Relativity in particular quantum effects in gravitation, physics of the early universe, Dark Energy, inflation...I' don't like to work in the framework of strings , supersymmetry, Kaluza-Klein, quintessence. To be clear my thesis focused on the conformal transformations in General Relativity and QFT in 4D. thanks

ps: For example i like Shaposhnikov's Group (Lousanne)...is a good group?

As a fellow scientist in the field of theoretical physics, I understand your desire to find a relevant and stimulating PhD program in Europe. It is important to find a group that aligns with your research interests and goals, and it seems like you have a clear focus on QFT and General Relativity without the use of string theory, supersymmetry, Kaluza-Klein, or quintessence.

I would recommend doing some further research on Shaposhnikov's Group at Lousanne, as well as other potential groups in Europe that have a strong focus on QFT and General Relativity. You may also want to reach out to colleagues and professors in the field for their recommendations and insights on different research groups in Europe.

It is also worth considering the resources and funding available at each institution, as well as the potential for collaboration and networking opportunities. Ultimately, the best group for you will depend on your specific research interests and finding a supportive environment for your PhD journey. I wish you the best of luck in finding the right program for you.
