Quantum Field Theory, Cosmology


Hayden Lee is a theoretical physicist working at the interface of high-energy physics and cosmology. Drawing on modern ideas from quantum field theory and the bootstrap program, he investigates cosmological correlators and other observables relevant to the early universe. His work also connects formal advances in particle theory to observational signatures accessible through large-scale structure surveys and other cosmological probes.
