Our research covers a very rich portfolio over most of the subfields of physics. which are broadly divided in four core research areas:

Studying the macroscopic and microscopic physical properties of matter
more

Understanding the building blocks of matter
more
 

Search for Dark Matter and neutrinoless double ß decay and studies of gravitational waves and theoretical astrophysics
more

Studying disordered and out-of-equilibrium systems and medical applications
more

The Physics Department has unique links with external institutes, particularly the Paul Scherrer Institute and the CERN laboratory.
