Beyond the Higgs: How FCC-ee Could Reveal the Next Layer of Fundamental Physics

Dienstag, 19. Mai 2026 | 17:00-18:00

Inhalt: What comes after the LHC? In this talk, we explore the proposed FCC-ee, a future electron-positron collider that could become the world's most precise microscope for studying nature's fundamental particles. From ultra-precise measurements of the Higgs boson to possible clues about dark matter and new physics, FCC-ee could shape the future of particle physics for decades. Beyond the science, we will also look at how such a large international project is planned, from the feasibility study to the ECFA discussions and the European Strategy process that will help decide the next flagship collider for Europe.

Vortragsgast: Prof. Dr. Markus Klute is Alexander von Humboldt Professor and Professor of Experimental Particle Physics at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). He received his PhD in physics from the University of Bonn in 2004 and spend 17 years at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) before joining KIT, where he worked on the CMS experiment at CERN and contributed to the discovery and precision study of the Higgs boson. His current research focuses on Higgs physics, searches for new phenomena beyond the Standard Model, and the physics case for future colliders such as FCC-ee.


Dies ist eine Veranstaltung von Netzwerk Teilchenwelt. Im Netzwerk Teilchenwelt haben sich 34 Forschungseinrichtungen in Deutschland und CERN zusammengeschlossen, um bundesweit aktuelle Physik der kleinsten Teilchen an Jugendliche und Lehrkräfte zu vermitteln.
