In this talk, I address some open problems in hadron physics and stress their importance for a better understanding of QCD in the confinement regime.
In this chapter we explore a few examples of physics opportunities using the existing chain of accelerators at CERN, including potential upgrades. In this context the LHC ring is also considered as a part of the injector system. The…
We discuss the status of the theoretical predictions of some interesting b-physics observables that are sensitive to New Physics and can be measured at the LHC.
I briefly review standard top quark physics at hadron colliders and summarize the contributions to this conference. The possibility of new mechanisms for $t\bar{t}$ production are also discussed.
The searches for new particles that could be constituents of the dark matter in the universe are an essential part of the physics program of the experiments at the Large Hadron Collider. An overview of recent dark matter candidate searches…
