14:00 → 15:00 TH Colloquium: Dark Matter in Disequilibrium

The Gaia mission is in the process of mapping nearly 1% of the Milky Way’s stars. This data set is unprecedented and provides a unique view into the formation history of our Galaxy and its associated dark matter halo. I will review results based on the most recent Gaia data release, which demonstrate that the inner Galaxy is dominated by the stellar remnants of a single massive satellite galaxy that merged with the Milky Way early on. These results suggest that the component of dark matter that is sourced from luminous satellites may not be in equilibrium, with a non-trivial fraction in substructure. I will explain the ramifications of these findings for direct detection experiments.

14:00 → 15:00 TH Colloquium: Is Nature Natural?

The discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider marks the culmination of a decades-long quest for the final piece of the Standard Model. But the discovery of the Higgs also adds new urgency to the hierarchy problem, namely the question of why the Higgs boson is so light despite its unique quantum sensitivity to much higher energy scales. This puzzle is made all the more challenging by the lack of evidence thus far for conventional approaches to the hierarchy problem at the LHC and other experiments. I'll discuss the essential features of the hierarchy problem and its possible solutions, with a particular focus on new approaches to the problem that have emerged in the years following the Higgs discovery. These new approaches feature novel experimental signatures, add urgency to the measurement of Higgs properties, and may shed light on dark matter and other mysteries of the Standard Model.
