The International Linear Collider (ILC) and the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) are the two options for a future high-energy, high-luminosity linear electron-positron collider. Both are expected to be built in stages, optimised for their…
In these lectures I describe some of the open questions in the standard model relating to the nature and origin of mass, forces and matter and discuss some of the speculative theoretical ideas put forth in this regard. Some of the topics…
We cover some current topics in Beyond the Standard Model phenomenology, with an emphasis on collider (particularly Large Hadron Collider) phenomenology. We begin with a review of the Standard Model and some unresolved mysteries that it…
The field of particle physics is at the crossroads. The discovery of a Higgs-like boson completed the Standard Model (SM), but the lacking observation of convincing resonances Beyond the SM (BSM) offers no guidance for the future of…
After discussing alternative scenarios for the origins of the electroweak symmetry breaking, I briefly review the experimental status of the Standard Model. I explore further both the hints for, and constraints on, supposing that that a…
One of the most attractive features of a linear collider is the ability to extend its energy reach in stages, and to adapt the running plan flexibly in terms of maximum centre-of-mass energy and time spent at each stage. The baseline…
In this talk I discuss some recent developments in physics beyond the Standard Model. After some initial comments on neutrino masses, I discuss the status of low-energy supersymmetry and finally turn to describing some recent work in…
There has been significant recent progress in observational cosmology. This, in turn, has provided an unprecedented picture of the early universe and its evolution. In this review I will present a (biased) view of how one can use these…
Recent results from the H1 and ZEUS experiments are reported on electroweak physics and on searches for new physics. All results are in good agreement with the Standard Model.
In these lectures I survey the state of supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model in light of data from the first run of the LHC. After assessing pre-LHC expectations based on principles of naturalness and parsimony, I review the…
The latest results from the H1 and ZEUS collaborations are presented on rare Standard Model processes and searches for physics Beyond the Standard Model. Intriguing events containing high transverse momentum leptons are observed by H1 and…
The new particle recently discovered at the Large Hadron Collider has properties compatible with those expected for the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson. However, this does not exclude the possibility that the discovered state is of…
We analyze the physics opportunities that would be made possible by upgrades of CERN's proton accelerator complex. These include the new physics possible with luminosity or energy upgrades of the LHC, options for a possible future neutrino…
In this work, I briefly report on constraints that can be obtained on new physics models that extend the scalar sector of the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics at the LHC. I concentrate on a few simple examples which serve to…
This is a personal summary of points made during, and arising from the symposium, drawing largely from the talks presented there. The Standard Model is doing fine, including QCD, the electroweak sector and flavour physics. The good news is…
After recalling briefly the main physics issues beyond the Standard Model, the main physics objectives of experiments at CERN in the coming decade(s) are reviewed. These include the conclusion of the LEP programme during the year 2000, a…
The Standard Model of particle physics has been remarkably successful in describing present experimental results. However, it is assumed to be only a low-energy effective theory which will break down at higher energy scales, theoretically…
This document presents an overview of the physics potential of a future electron-positron linear collider. It represents a common input from the CLIC and ILC communities.
Within the framework of the Standard Model, the scale of electroweak symmetry breaking is unstable to radiative corrections. We discuss two broad classes of models of new physics (one with a strongly interacting and the other with a…
We give a brief outline of possible neutrino electromagnetic characteristics, which can indicate new physics beyond the Standard Model. Special emphasis is put on recent theoretical development in searches for neutrino magnetic moments.
