M3-9 Exploring the Energy and Precision Frontier I (PPD) / Frontière d'énergie et de précision I (PPD)
- Alison Lister (University of British Columbia (CA))
In this talk, recent highlights and future prospects will be discussed.
As the most recently-discovered particle of the Standard Model, the Higgs boson is fundamental to our understanding of particle physics and is the focus of much attention at CERN’S Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The Higgs boson’s couplings to other particles are predicted by the Standard Model (SM), so performing precise measurements of these couplings can probe for discrepancies and constrain...
In the Standard Model, the interactions between gauge bosons are completely specified and any deviations from this expectation would indicate the presence of new physics phenomena at unprobed energy scales. The study of the self-couplings of electroweak gauge bosons is therefore a powerful approach to searching for new physics phenomena. The large data samples collected by the ATLAS experiment...
