Erez Etzion (Tel-Aviv U.) "Higgs hunting episode II – Searches for Beyond the SM Higgs at the LHC"
Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, caABSTRACT The discovery of the "Higgs like" particle in summer 2012 completed about fifty years of search. In short time with significantly more data we renamed it to be the Higgs particle and continued with studying its characteristic. In parallel …

Emmanuel Schaan (Princeton) "Non-linearities in the large-scale structure: noise and signal"
Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, caAbstract: The primordial density perturbations seen in the cosmic microwave background have collapsed under gravity to form the large-scale structure we see in the universe today. This evolution is non-linear, and therefore introduces coupling between Fourier modes that would otherwise …

Robert Kirshner (Moore Foundation) "Doing WFIRST Science Now: Supernovae in the Infrared"
Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, caAbstract.- An infrared-capable 2.4m telescope is presently in orbit: the Hubble Space Telescope. This makes it possible to do rest-frame infrared observations of Type Ia supernovae. In the infrared, SN Ia are more nearly standard candles and there is less …

John Bradmiller-Feld (UCSB) "An Inclusive and Generic Search for Supersymmetry in the Multijet + Missing Momentum Final State Performed on pp Collision Data Collected with the CMS Detector"
Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, caABSTRACT For the past two years, the LHC has collided protons at a record-high center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. This time has provided an opportunity to search for beyond standard model particles at the TeV scale, including those predicted by …

Scott Kravitz (Stanford) "Identification of Single Barium Atoms for the nEXO Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay Experiment"
Abstract: nEXO is a next-generation experiment designed to search for neutrinoless double beta decay of xenon-136 in a liquid xenon time projection chamber. Positive observation of this decay would determine the neutrino to be a Majorana particle, as well as …

SPECIAL SEMINAR: Wai Ling Kimmy Wu (Stanford) "Constraining Inflation with BICEP/Keck and SPT"
Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, caAbstract: Inflation generically predicts a background of stochastic gravitational waves. In the standard cosmological model LCDM, these primordial gravitational waves (PGW) are the only source to the odd-parity (curl) B-mode polarization on the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) at the epoch of …

Evan Pease (Yale) "Searching for WIMPs and More: Results from 3 Years of Underground Science with the LUX Experiment"
Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, caABSTRACT: The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) experiment recently concluded underground operationat the Sanford Underground Research Facility. This talk will cover the full LUX search for dark matter in the form of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) and will describe new …
