Introduction:
Hi! I'm a PhD student at the University of Oxford in the Particle Theory group working on string theory phenomenology and string cosmology, having previously acquired a Masters in Theoretical Physics from Durham and a separate Masters in Applied Mathematics at Cambridge (Part III). I am especially interested in various areas of theoretical physics around quantum field theory, string theory, and cosmology. My recent focus is on improving Wikipedias coverage of supergravity.
Contributions:
- Complete rewrites: Cluster decomposition, ColemanâMandula theorem, Correlation function, Dirac equation, Effective action, Elitzur's theorem, Fermion doubling, FischlerâSusskind holographic bound, Furry's theorem, HaagâĹopuszaĹskiâSohnius theorem, Ian Shipsey, Kinetic term, NielsenâNinomiya theorem, Partition function, PecceiâQuinn theory, RNS formalism, Staggered fermion, Strong CP problem, 't Hooft loop, Theta vacuum, Wilson loop.
- Created articles: 4D N = 1 global supersymmetry, 4D N = 1 supergravity, DiracâKähler equation, Eleven-dimensional supergravity, Polyakov loop, Pure 4D N = 1 supergravity, Type I supergravity, Type IIA supergravity, Type IIB supergravity, Wilson action.
- Sections written: Parity (physics)#Fixing the global symmetries.
- Many minor edits on other articles as well.
- Number of stubs unstubbed: 14.
- Articles written: 31.
- Classified hundreds of physics stubs.
- Improved references in many articles.
Current and future work:
- Working on tidying up, citing, and significantly (but not fully? :P) rewriting the KleinâGordon equation page.
- Improving Wikiedias coverage of supersymmetry and supergravity.
- Largely completed but unpulished articles waiting for me to finish: GKP flux compactification, KKLT scenario, and Large volume scenario.
- Articles to improve: phenomenology (physics).
- Stringy articles to create: DGKT scenario, Flux compactification, GVW superpotential, MaldacenaâNunez theorem, Moduli stabilisation.
- Supergravity articles to create: 4D N = 2 global supersymmetry, 4D N = 2 supergravity, Pure 4D N = 2 supergravity.
- General articles to create: higher form symmetry, MajoranaâWeyl spinor, Wilsonian effective action.
- Long term articles to create: chiral condensate, discrete gauge theory, global symmetry, high energy physics (HEP), low dimensional QFT, superconformal QFT, supersymmetric QFT, zero dimensional QFT.
- The more I think about it, the more there is to do on Wikipedia. Honestly, it feels like MOST existing articles need serious revamps and the absence of so many articles is another major flaw.
