PITT PACC Workshop: Higgs and Beyond

→ US/Eastern
University of Pittsburgh

University of Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh, PA 15260
Description

This workshop will bring together experts from experiment and theory to discuss and develop new opportunities to study the Higgs boson and the mechanism of Electroweak Symmetry Breaking at LHC Run II, as well as future high energy colliders. Specific topics that will be addressed include Higgs couplings/spin/CP properties, theoretical description of Higgs production and decay, off-shell Higgs measurements, invisible and exotic Higgs decays, and Higgs interplay with flavor, dark matter, and naturalness. 

PROGRAM ORGANIZERS: Marcela Carena (Fermilab & U Chicago), Sally Dawson (BNL), Andreas Hoecker (CERN), Jianming Qian (U Michigan), Michael Spannowsky (Durham)

LOCAL ORGANIZERS: Brian Batell, Tao Han, Tae Min Hong, Brock Tweedie

ADMINISTRATOR: Cindy Cercone

      Seminar: First results from the LHC at 13 TeV Allen Hall, Room 321

      Allen Hall, Room 321
      Abstract: The LHC Run-2 has begun earlier this year after a more than two-year technical stop during which the accelerator was prepared for the increased 13 TeV proton–proton center-of-mass energy. The LHC experiments have used this period to upgrade and consolidate their detectors, to improve the online and offline data processing, and to finalize the analysis of the Run-1 data. The seminar briefly reviews these improvements and the Run-2 experimental performance, and presents first 13 TeV physics results.
