  1. 39. No Stone Left Unturned? Searches for New Physics with ATLAS
    Dr Wojtek Fedorko (University of British Columbia)

    Particle Physics / Physique des particules (PPD)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    One of the key missions of the LHC is to search for the unknown and unexpected. The 2012 LHC run at centre of mass energy of 8 TeV has delivered a wealth of data for the ATLAS experiment to analyse. This talk will give a flavour of the variety and breath of searches for physics beyond the Standard Model at ATLAS, ranging from those using relatively clean signatures through to more complicated...

  2. 64. How hard is it to get a de Sitter solution in String Theory?
    Prof. Keshav Dasgupta (McGill University)
    18/06/2014, 09:00
    Theoretical Physics / Physique théorique (DTP-DPT)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    In this talk I will argue that a de Sitter solution in string theory is hard to get, although not impossible. I'll show a possible way to realize KKLT type solution using string theory fluxes and discuss the status of other possible ways to achieve de Sitter vacua.

  3. 310. The Search for a Heavy Higgs-like Boson in the WW(lvjj) Decay Channel with the ATLAS Detector

    Oral (Student, In Competition) / Orale (Étudiant(e), inscrit à la compétition)
    The search for search for a heavy Higgs boson decaying into the semi-leptonic WW final state is presented in the high mass range (300 GeV - 1000 GeV) using the ATLAS detector. These results are based on the 2012 proton-proton dataset provided by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $21\ fb^{-1}$ at center of mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 8\ TeV$. The...

  4. 248. Search for new physics in the same-sign dilepton final states with the ATLAS detector at the LHC
    Dr Kenji Hamano (University of Victoria)
    18/06/2014, 09:45
    Particle Physics / Physique des particules (PPD)
    Oral (Non-Student) / orale (non-étudiant)
    Many new physics models beyond the Standard Model produce same-sign dilepton pairs. Supersymmetry, universal etra dimentions, left-right symmetry, Higgs triplets and Little Higgs are examples of such new models. Same-sign dilepton pairs are clean signature in the collisions of two protons because not many Standard Model process to produce such final states exist. This makes it an ideal...
