Nominator's project description

Professor Csaki is an international leader in the field of elementary particle theory with a focus on physics beyond the standard model. He has made crucial contributions to some of the deepest mysteries of fundamental physics, like the origin of mass and the origin of exponentially different mass scales in physics. During his stay in Germany, he intends to understand how supersymmetric phase transitions can be seen in graviational wave signals.
