Place: Room 1226, Polytechnic Building
Inviter: Liu Zhanwei
Summary: This is a more popular science report, introducing lattice QCD and some of its applications. The report starts from the mystery of various protons brought about by protons, leads to lattice QCD, and then talks about applying lattice QCD to high-precision frontiers. The main purpose of the report is to communicate with teachers and classmates of Lanzhou University.
Biography: Researcher Feng Xu received his bachelor's and master's degrees from Peking University, and his Ph.D. from Deutsches Elektronen Synchrotron (DESY) in Germany. He once did post-doctoral research at the High Energy Accelerator Research Institute (KEK) in Japan and Columbia University in the United States. In 2016, he returned to the Institute of Theoretical Physics of Peking University as a researcher until now. His research field mainly focuses on lattice quantum chromodynamics, and applies it to low-energy hadron physics, high-precision flavor physics, and few-body nuclear physics.
