Theory Seminar (High Energy/Cosmology) |
Events During the Week of April 2nd through April 9th, 2017
Monday, April 3rd, 2017
- Hidden Valley searches at the LHCb
- Time: 3:30 pm
- Place: 4274 Chamberlin (SPECIAL LOCATION AND DATE)
- Speaker: Yue Zhao, University of Michigan
- Abstract: Dark shower is a generic feature of the Hidden Valley (HV) models. It has interesting implications on collider studies on Neutral Naturalness models. Bound states in the hidden sector are produced with a high multiplicity, low masses, and long lifetimes. A collider search of such signals requires good vertex resolution, low energy threshold, as well as a good particle id to veto the background. We show that the LHCb provides an ideal environment to study HV models. Further, we compare the sensitivities at the LHCb with those at the ATLAS/CMS.
Tuesday, April 4th, 2017
- Next steps in new physics searches, LHC and beyond.
- Time: 3:30 pm
- Place: 5280 Chamberlin
- Speaker: Liantao Wang, University of Chicago
- Abstract: Starting from the most recent LHC results reported in Moriond 2017, I will give my perspective the status of new physics searches and discuss the strategies for the future.
