This abstract is for a plenary talk.
After the discovery of a Higgs boson in summer 2012, understanding the properties of the new particle has been a high priority of the ATLAS physics program. Measurements of Higgs boson properties sensitive to its production processes, decay modes, and spin/CP properties based on pp collision data recorded at 13 TeV are presented. The analyses in several...

This abstract is for a plenary talk.
The large integrated luminosities that are available at the LHC, allow to test the electroweak sector of the Standard Model as well as QCD calculations to highest precision. In this talk we cover both aspects, starting with the latest results from the ATLAS collaboration involving jets, dijets, photons in association with heavy flavors and vector bosons in...

Recent results on lepton universality tests and measurements of
branching fractions and angular distributions of rare b->sll decays have
shown tensions with the SM predictions. The LHCb experiment is ideally
suited for the study of the these flavour... -

Precision measurements of CP violating observables in b hadron decays

are powerful probes to search for physics effects beyond the Standard
Model. The most recent results on CP violation in the decay, mixing and
interference of b hadrons obtained by the LHCb Collaboration will be
presented, with particular focus on results obtained exploiting the data
collected during the Run 2 of LHC. -

with two energetic jets and searched for dijet resonances, signals of new
physics beyond the standard model. The coupling of the resonance to jets
determines whether it has a natural width that is narrow or broad when
compared to the experimental resolution. I will present a search for narrow
dijet resonances and compare with... -

As opposed to Wald's cosmic no-hair theorem in general relativity, it is shown that the Horndeski theory (and its generalization) admits anisotropic inflationary attractors if the Lagrangian depends cubically on the second derivatives of the scalar field. We dub such a solution as a self-anisotropizing inflationary universe because anisotropic inflation can occur without introducing any...

describe the flavour mixing of the leptons
and quarks. The mixing angles are calculated in terms
of the mass eigenvalues. The neutrino masses
can be calculated - they are very small
and display a normal hierarchy. An application to double beta decay is discussed. -

MoEDAL, is a pioneering LHC experiment designed to search for anomalously ionizing messengers of new physics such as magnetic monopoles or massive (pseudo-)stable charged particles, that are predicted to existing a plethora of models beyond the Standard Model. It started data taking at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, in 2015. Its ground breaking physics program defines a number...

The Belle II experiment is a substantial upgrade of the Belle detector and will operate at the SuperKEKB energy-asymmetric $e^+ e^-$ collider. The accelerator has already successfully completed the first phase of commissioning in 2016. First electron positron collisions in Belle II are expected for April 2018. The design luminosity of SuperKEKB is $8 \times 10^{35}$ cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$ and the...

Curent neutrino oscillation data tell us that what is behind the observed neutrino mixing pattern should at least be an approximate mu-tau flavor symmetry. This suggests that there may exist an exact mu-tau flavor symmetry in the neutrino sector at a superhigh energy scale (e.g., the scale that the seesaw mechanism works), and it will be spontaneously broken due to the renormalization-group...

The T2K long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment measures muon neutrino disappearance and electron neutrino appearance in an accelerator produced neutrino and anti-neutrino beams. We report on the analysis of our data from 2.6E21 protons on target exposure. Results for oscillation parameters including the CP violation parameter and neutrino mass ordering are shown.

Super-Kamiokande (SK), a 50 kton water Cherenkov detector in Japan, is observing both atmospheric and solar neutrino neutrinos and is searching for supernova (relic) neutrinos, proton decays as well as dark matter like particles. The installation of new front-end electronics in 2008 marks the beginning of the 4th phase of SK (SK-IV).

The 760 ton ICARUS T600 detector performed a successful three-year physics run at the underground LNGS laboratories, searching for atmospheric neutrino interactions and performing with the CNGS neutrino beam from CERN a sensitive search for LSND like anomalous nu_e appearance which contributed to constrain the allowed parameters to a narrow region around Δm2~eV2, where all the experimental...

mass scale for protons and other hadrons emerges from QCD, even in
the limit of zero quark mass. I will discuss a new approach to the
