Blois 2016: 28th Rencontres de Blois on "Particle Physics and Cosmology"

29 May 2016, 15:00 → 3 Jun 2016, 16:00 Europe/Paris

Gaston d'Orléans

Jacques Dumarchez (Univ. P. et Marie Curie (Paris VI) (FR)), Karl Jakobs (Albert-Ludwigs-Universitaet Freiburg (DE))

This will be the 28th meeting in this series of annual international multidisciplinary meetings, created in 1989 by Jean Tran Thân Van and which has in the past covered many topics in physics, astronomy and biology. All sessions take place in the Château of Blois, a beautiful renaissance castle which has housed many French kings, and notably François 1st. The 28th Rencontres de Blois on "Particle Physics and Cosmology" (Blois2016) will emphasize the increasing interplay between high energy accelerator based physics and cosmology. The conference will consist of plenary sessions for invited in-depth oral presentations (review talks) and contributed papers, in the form of relatively short oral papers. We will aim to achieve a balance between review talks, provocative talks given by recognized specialists, and shorter contributions. Special emphasis is being placed on active participation by younger researchers and post-docs. Parallel sessions are foreseen, and are being organised as the need arises.

Speaker: Thomas Dieter Flacke (Korea University)

17:50 A closer look to the sgoldstino interpretation of the diphoton excess

We revisit the sgoldstino interpretation of the diphoton excess in the context of gauge mediation: we show that the interpretation is viable in a thin, near critical region of the parameter space. This regime gives rise to drastic departures from the standard gauge mediation picture. While the fermion messengers lie in the 10-100 TeV range, some scalar messengers are significantly lighter and are responsible for the sgoldstino production and decay. Their effective coupling to the sgoldstino is correspondingly enhanced, and a non-perturbative regime is triggered when light and heavy messenger masses differ by a factor ~4 pi.
