Vector Boson Scattering as a gate to New Physics

• hab. Michal Szleper (National Centre for Nuclear Research (PL))

Room: Room: B2.38 In the lack of direct observation of new particles at the LHC, indirect searches for physics beyond the Standard Model gain new importance. Vector Boson Scattering (VBS) processes provide crucial tests of the Standard Model mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking and allow for indirect searches for New Physics. After a pedagogical introduction to the physics of VBS, I will present the concept of BSM searches in the quasi-model-independent framework of effective field theories, their current status and future plans. I will give a review of recent VBS-related results from the LHC Run 2 data collected by the CMS experiment and selected advances in theory and phenomenology.
