Dr Arun Nayak (Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar)13/12/2022, 09:30Plenary Talk
A Higgs boson was discovered by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC in 2012. Since then, the LHC experiments have made significant progress in precision studies with the data recorded during LHC Run-1+2 to establish the nature of the observed scalar particle as well as to look for indirect evidence for physics beyond the Standard Model. The latest LHC results from precision studies of the...

Dr Mohamed Rameez (Tata Intitute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai)14/12/2022, 09:00Plenary Talk
The past decade has seen the opening of two new windows to the Universe - high energy neutrinos and gravitational waves. Leveraging data from other astrophysical messengers, two extragalactic candidate sources have been identified for the high energy neutrinos - TXS 0506+056 and NGC 1068. The existence of this flux enables the testing of fundamental particle physics at energies far beyond the...

The GRAPES-3 experiment located in Ooty, Tamil Nadu is the major cosmic ray observation facility in India. It operates 24x7 with an array of 400 plastic scintillator detectors of 1 m$^2$ area each and a 560 m$^2$ area large muon telescope to sample the electromagnetic and muonic components of cosmic ray showers respectively. It allows us to study high energy phenomena from 10 TeV to 10 PeV...

Suchita Kulkarni (University of Graz)15/12/2022, 09:00Plenary Talk
I will take an overview of the latest progress in theory model space of dark matter candidates. I will in particular concentrate on new class of dark matter theories, where dark matter is a composite particle arising through confinement in a secluded non-Abelian confining sector. I will sketch the principles behind construction of such theories, demonstrate the usage of lattice computations...

Dr Sayantan Sharma (IMSc)15/12/2022, 10:00Plenary Talk
Understanding the thermodynamics of strongly interacting matter described by Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) lies at the core of explaining, for e.g., the formation of an overwhelming fraction of the visible matter in the universe and the dense baryon matter that exists at the core of the neutron stars. Lattice QCD techniques have provided some spectacular results in this field, specially in the...

Dr Rahul Srivastava (IISER Bhopal)15/12/2022, 17:00Plenary Talk
Although an integral part of the Standard Model, neutrinos still remain the least understood of all known fundamental particles. There are many open questions in neutrino physics, starting from their very nature to their mass generation, their mixing and oscillation patterns. In this talk, I will cover the current theoretical understanding of neutrinos and the various open questions that...

Prof. BIPUL BHUYAN (Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati)15/12/2022, 17:30Plenary Talk
With the establishment of the oscillation phenomena, neutrino physics is entering a precision era, although there are still several unknowns, such as the neutrino mass ordering, possible CP violation in neutrino physics, amongst others. In this talk, I will review the current experimental status of neutrino physics and the planned experiments at least in the next two decades which will enable...

Future colliders are necessary to understand the Higgs boson at percent level precision. Any deviations at percent level in the Higgs sector points to new physics at 10 TeV scale. Natural choice made by the world community calls for a plan to build an electron-positron Higgs factory followed by a 10-TeV scale collider, using 100-TeV center-of-mass proton-proton collider or a 10-TeV muon...

In 2020 the US Department of Energy announced its intention to build the Electron Ion Collider (EIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Immediately, an EIC project team consisting of scientists from BNL and Jefferson Laboratory was formed and project moved forward. It has gone through important critical decisions and evaluations since then and poised to start construction in 2025 culminating...

Dr Karim Trabelsi (IJCLab (Orsay), IIT Hyderabad)Plenary Talk
The two B-factory experiments (Belle at KEKB, BaBar at PEPII) observed the first large signals for CP violation (matter-antimatter asymmetries) in the B meson sector in 2001. These results demonstrated Kobayashi and Maskawa's hypothesis for the origin of the CP violation is correct and provided the experimental foundation for their 2008 Nobel Prize in Physics. Belle II, the first super...

The Standard Model (SM) theory of Particle Physics has been very successful in explaining a large number of physics processes.

However, the theory is incomplete as it doesn't address the problems such as neutrino masses, dark matter, dark energy, and many more.
This requires us to look at the physics processes beyond SM. The two general-purpose detectors at LHC, namely CMS and ATLAS,... -
