CA24101 - Testing Fundamental Physics with Seismology (FuSe)

The FuSe Action tackles challenges in fundamental physics by exploring seismic phenomena and
earthquake precursors, providing new opportunities for testing. It aims to bridge the gap between
fundamental physicists and Earth scientists, leveraging advanced technologies such as Big Data, machine
learning, and AI, and working with small technological enterprises to translate theoretical insights into
practical applications.
At the heart of FuSe is the belief that seismic phenomena could reveal new aspects of fundamental
interactions and lead to the discovery of new physics. By analysing seismic data and studying the
underlying physical principles, FuSe aims to explore imprints of unknown physics that may be embedded in
these natural processes. On the other hand, the study of fundamental physics can also improve our
knowledge of the Earth. This effort draws on interdisciplinary expertise, with a focus on how seismic events
could deepen our understanding of the fundamental forces that govern the universe.
FuSe’s innovative approach combines diverse scientific fields to pursue both theoretical and practical
advancements. This synergy has the potential to transform our knowledge of both fundamental physics and
seismic activity, contributing to a broader understanding of Earth’s interior and the cosmos.
