Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

Precision low-energy experiments in electroweak electron-proton interactions are a vital complement to direct tests of the Standard Model. They also give information about the structure of the proton. In parity-violating electron-proton scattering, recent results reported by the Qweak collaboration, and the proposed Møller experiment at Jefferson Lab, have the potential to give constraints on...

2275. Particle Physics at the Precision Frontier (I)

Theoretical Physics / Physique théorique (DTP-DPT)

Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

We know that the Standard Model of Particle Physics is incomplete - for example, we still do not understand the nature of dark matter, matter- antimatter asymmetry or hierarchy of the three generations of elementary particles. There is a wide spectrum of experiments searching for new particles beyond the Standard Model (BSM), broadly defined by three domains - Energy, Cosmic and Precision...
