Abstract: Search for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) has been one of the most important goals of the physics program at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Among all the final states, the multijet final state has long been considered …

Abstract The dark matter problem, known since the 1930s, has only grown in importance during the current era of precision cosmology.  We remain unable to answer the question: what is the matter that makes of 5/6 of the universe’s matter …

Abstract: In the technical design report of the LHC experiments, measurements of the Higgs coupling to top and bottom quarks and the width of the Higgs were either predicted to be extremely challenging, if not impossible at the LHC. Yet, ATLAS and CMS have both produced interesting results for …
