SUMMARY:Speaker: Frances Houle ( LBNL)-Title: A Modern Understanding of Ethics in Physics
DESCRIPTION:This is an In-Person [HYBRID] Event \nDate: JUNE 8\, 2023 \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room – 50A-5-5132 \nSPEAKER: Frances Houle (LBNL) \nTITLE: A Modern Understanding of Ethics in Physics\n \nABSTRACT: What are considered ethical principles and ethical behavior in physics have evolved considerably in the past 20 years. In this talk I will describe the history and changes in thinking\, as well as the role of the American Physical Society in the process. The community has come to appreciate the crucial importance of professional pressures in unethical behavior\, leading to newly focused thinking about how physics and other scientific professions might aspects of their cultures and improve ethics awareness and education. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/98854322464?pwd=K2tKUm1VZjRlV1J5RHE3cXdHQzRxdz09 \nMeeting ID: 988 5432 2464\nPasscode: 142239

SUMMARY:Speaker: Frank Tackmann-Title: "Theory uncertainties and correlations in perturbative predictions  "
DESCRIPTION:Research Progress Meeting \n \nDate: June 15\, 2023 \nTime: 4:00- 5:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room- 50A-5132 [In-Person and HYBRID]  \nSpeaker: Frank Tackmann \nTitle: Theory uncertainties and correlations in perturbative predictions\n \nAbstract: Theoretical predictions that are used in interpreting experimental\nmeasurements require reliable uncertainties and correlations.\nHowever\, the prevalent method to estimate uncertainties in perturbative\npredictions in high-energy physics\, based on varying unphysical scales\, lacks\nboth reliability and the ability to correctly treat correlations.\nThis is a severe limitation in precision studies where theory uncertainties\nare of comparable size to experimental ones.\nI will highlight a couple of such examples\, including determining\nHiggs couplings to bottom and charm from the Higgs pT spectrum\, a recent\ndetermination of the strong coupling from the Drell-Yan pT spectrum by ATLAS\,\nand the measurement of the W-boson mass at hadron colliders.\nI will give a conceptual overview of theory uncertainties and our current\nestimation methods at a non-technical level accessible to non-experts.\nFinally\, I will discuss the development of a new concept of theory nuisance\nparameters\, which promises to overcome (most of) the limitations of scale\nvariations.\n \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/98854322464?pwd=K2tKUm1VZjRlV1J5RHE3cXdHQzRxdz09 \nMeeting ID: 988 5432 2464\nPasscode: 142239

SUMMARY:Speaker: Kerstin Tackmann-Title: Higgs measurements at ATLAS
DESCRIPTION:Research Progress Meeting \n \nDate: June 22\, 2023 \nTime: 4:00- 5:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room- 50A-5132 [In-Person and HYBRID]  \nSpeaker: Kerstin Tackmann \nTitle: Higgs measurements at ATLAS\n \nAbstract: In summer 2012\, the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the Large Hadron Collider\nannounced the discovery of a new particle\, with properties consistent with\nthose expected from the Standard Model Higgs boson. Since then\, its properties\nand its interactions with other particles have been studied by both experiments\nusing the data that have been collected up to 2018\, increasing the number of\nHiggs bosons produced by a factor of 36. This talk gives an overview of recent\nresults from the ATLAS experiment\, focusing on the results obtained on that\ndataset and mentioning briefly new results obtained using the data collected\nin 2022. To date\, all measurements have been found to be consistent with the\npredictions of the Standard Model of particle physics.\n \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/98854322464?pwd=K2tKUm1VZjRlV1J5RHE3cXdHQzRxdz09 \nMeeting ID: 988 5432 2464\nPasscode: 142239
