fpuk is an STFC-funded
virtual theory centre. Its role is to coordinate theoretical physicists in
the UK who work on formal topics in fundamental physics. This includes
research into String Theory/M-theory, Supersymmetry, Quantum Field Theory and
Gravity as well as related topics. Our mandate consists of three main themes
(for our terms of reference and governing structure please see here): ·
Foster interactions and sharing
of knowledge between UK research groups ·
Organise regular in person
meetings of the formal UK theoretical physics community ·
Represent the theory community
within STFC Other STFC-funded centres are UK Lattice Field Theory,
and not least the Institute for
Particle Physics Phenomenology For a list of UK groups with
