Abstract: The discovery of neutrino oscillations provides the first indication of a lepton flavor violating (LFV) process, one that isn't predicted by the Standard Model. Extending the Standard Model picture to account for this usually proceeds via the addition of …
Abstract: Hawking famously argued, based on semiclassical calculations, that the radiation from evaporating black holes is contains no information about the matter that fell in. This would be inconsistent with the unitarity of quantum mechanics. In this talk, I will …
David Weinberg (OSU) "Cosmology Past, Present, and Future" I will give a broad overview of the current state of observational cosmology, with historical context and an eye to the future. Developments over the past three decades have led to a …

Abstract: Events containing disappearing tracks originating from the decay of a heavy and electrically charged long-lived particle to a pair of undetectable particles are key to the discovery of compelling minimal dark matter models at collider experiments. This talk will …

Abstract: As part of the Phase 2 upgrade of the ATLAS detector to ready it for operation at the High-Luminosity LHC the inner tracking system will be replaced by an all silicon Inner Tracker (ITk). The Pixel and Strip system …
Abstract: The high luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), scheduled for 2025-2027, will significantly increase the instantaneous luminosity of the LHC collisions. The resulting large proton-proton collision datasets will allow precise measurements of Higgs boson properties, searches for …

Abstract: The Forward Search Experiment (FASER) is the newest experiment at the LHC, approved in 2019 and recently installed into the CERN LHC complex. It is a small and inexpensive experiment placed 500 meters downstream of the ATLAS interaction point. …

ABSTRACT: The Dirac equation predicted that the g-factor of spin 1/2 particles be 2, but in 1948 Julian Schwinger calculated that quantum electrodynamics (QED) fluctuations increase the electron and muon g-factor such that the anomaly a_(μ) = (g_(μ) − 2)/2 = α/2π at first order. …

ABSTACT: It is time to start thinking about the next-next generation of colliders, that is, colliders that access the multi-10-TeV region of parton center of mass energies. The discussion has already begun with consideration of FCC-hh and muon colliders, but …
