SUMMARY:Particle Physics at the Highest Energies\, NPAC (Nuclear/Parti
 cle/Astro/Cosmo) Forum\, Peter Denton\, Vanderbilt University
DESCRIPTION:The highest energy scales accessible in particle physics a
 re seen at the LHC and ultra high energy cosmic ray detectors such as 
 Pierre Auger Observatory and Telescope Array. First\, I consider apply
 ing a technique known as integral dispersion relations to extend the r
 each of the LHC. Integral dispersion relations use analyticity to link
  experimental values at one energy to those at all energies. This can 
 be used to detect new physics in a model independent fashion at and ab
 ove a machine's operating energy. Next\, to probe physics at even high
 er energies\, I consider the open question of ultra high energy cosmic
  ray anisotropy. In particular\, I look at how problems such as low st
 atistics and partial sky coverage affect an experiment's ability to de
 termine anisotropy.
