Weinberg Institute for Theoretical Physics
Researching at the intersection of astrophysics, cosmology, gravitational physics and high-energy physics.
Center for Gravitational Physics
With research that aims to unravel the mystery of strong-field gravity in our universe, the center sparks new ideas and collaborations in gravitational research.
Texas Center for Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics
The center brings together researchers from the departments of Physics and Astronomy to facilitate interdisciplinary research in cosmology and astroparticle physics.
Theory Group
With scientists pursuing a deeper understanding of a variety of challenges facing theoretical physics, the Theory Group explores topics ranging from understanding quantum mechanics and gravity in cosmology to particle physics phenomenology.
