In the first Lecture, the Big Bang and the Standard Model of particle physics are introduced, as well as the structure of the latter and open issues beyond it. Neutrino physics is discussed in the second Lecture, with emphasis on models for…
This is a set of four lectures presented at the Theoretical Advanced Study Institute (TASI-09) in June 2009. The goal of the lectures is to introduce students to some of the basic ideas and tools required for theoretical analysis of…
This contribution contains a brief review of several scenarios for physics beyond the Standard Model at the energy scales accessible to experiments at the Tevatron and the LHC, focusing on their experimental signatures.
Following a general introduction to open questions beyond the Standard Model, the prospects for addressing them in the new era opened up by the LHC are reviewed. Sample highlights are given of ways in which the LHC is already probing beyond…
This reports summarizes the three lectures on particle physics instrumentation given during the AEPSHEP school in November 2014 at Puri-India. The lectures were intended to give an overview of the interaction of particles with matter and…
This set of lectures introduces at an elementary level the supersymmetric Standard Model and discusses some of its phenomenological properties. (Lectures given by J. Louis at the summer school ``Grundlagen und neue Methoden der…
The present lectures contain an introduction to low energy supersymmetry, a new symmetry that relates bosons and fermions, in particle physics. The Standard Model of fundamental interactions is briefly reviewed, and the motivation to…
A personal view of current prospectives in particle physics is presented, inspired by the contributions to this meeting. Particular emphasis is laid in precision tests of the Standard Model and the search for the Higgs boson, on probes of…
This is an expanded version of the lectures given at the Trieste Summer School 1992 on Low-dimensional Quantum Field Theories for Condensed Matter Physicists.
These lectures provide a very basic introduction to different theoretical limits on the mass of Higgs scalars. Particular attention is devoted to the pure Standard Model and its Minimal Supersymmetric extension (MSSM). [Lectures presented…
After the discovery of the Higgs boson particle on the 4th of July of 2012 at the Large Hadron Collider, sited at the european CERN laboratory, we are entering in a fascinating period for Particle Physics where both theorists and…
We summarize the recent results on electroweak physics and physics beyond the Standard Model that have been presented at the XIV International Workshop on Deep Inelastic Scattering 2006.
The purpose of these lectures is to describe the state of affairs in modern particle physics to young physicists who do not specialize in this subject.
The present status of the Standard Model and its experimental tests are reviewed, including indications on the likely mass of the Higgs boson. Also discussed are the motivations for supersymmetry and grand unification, searches for…
What life is there after Higgs? Specifically, what physics lies beyond the Standard Model (SM)? These are the biggest questions in particle physics today, and my talk is oriented towards efforts to answer them at the LHC and elsewhere.
This article is a summary of four introductory lectures on ``Neutrino Experiments,'' given at the 2006 TASI summer school. The purposes were to sketch out the present questions in neutrino physics and to discuss the experimental challenges…
These lecture notes provide an introduction to the theoretical concepts of flavour physics and CP violation, based on a series of lectures given at the ESHEP 2016 summer school. In the first lecture we review the basics of flavour and CP…
In this talk I discuss the effects of physics beyond the standard model on the process $Z \to b\bar{b}$. I argue that, because the top-quark is heavy, this process is susceptible to large corrections from new physics.
Lecture notes with a brief introduction to Quantum field theory and the Standard Model are presented. The lectures were given at the 2017 European School of High-Energy Physics. The main features, the present status, and problems of the…
This set of lectures provides an elementary introduction to the standard electroweak theory, followed by a detailed discussion of its experimental tests. We then consider the conceptual limitations of the Standard Model and briefly review…
