Etienne Dreyer (Simon Fraser University) Searching for new physics using high-energy lepton pairs and some other hot topics in ATLAS
January 13, 2021 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Abstract:
What is the nature of dark matter? What leads to the fundamental forces having such disparate strengths? Can we explain the small mass of the Higgs boson without excessive fine tuning? These outstanding questions are part of a broad motivation to continue investigating new physics scenarios beyond the Standard Model (SM). Several theoretical solutions propose an extended gauge symmetry group beyond the SM, and hence predict the existence of additional massive gauge bosons. I will discuss the latest search for a new neutral boson producing the particularly clean signature of two high energy leptons in the ATLAS detector.
In the second part of the talk I will share my ambitions for ongoing and future research in machine learning applications to particle physics, testing the SM in strategic connections to the Higgs boson, and work on the ATLAS Inner Tracker (ITk) upgrade.
