Description
With the start-up of collisions in the LHC in 2009 the fundamental physics entered the most exciting era of our generation. Proton-proton collisions at LHC probe tiniest distances ever achieved in a laboratory, and there are strong arguments suggesting that new physical principles should be detectable at these scales. Final states with third generation particles (b- or t- quark, or taus) provide a unique possibility to probe theoretical extensions of the standard model. I will discuss the experimental techniques used in searches for new physics, and will present the latest results from CMS, including searches for SUSY, leptoquarks and more, and will discuss the future prospects at the LHC. Bio: Artur Apresyan is a Tolman postdoctoral fellow at California Institute of Technology. He received his Ph.D. from Purdue University in 2009 working on CDF experiment at the Tevatron, where he performed a search for the Higgs boson produced in association with a W or Z boson. He joined the CMS collaboration in 2009, and since then has played leading roles in the commissioning and optimization of jets and missing transverse energy (MET) reconstruction, and data quality monitoring of the HCAL detector. He initiated the first search in LHC for third generation leptoquarks, and has performed searches for squark, gluino, and sbottom production. Currently he serves as the co-convener of the CMS MET group.
