We discuss the motivation and the phenomenology of models with either flat or warped extra dimensions. We describe the typical mass spectrum and discovery signatures of such models at the LHC. We also review several proposed methods for…
After an introduction to the Higgs sector of supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, recent results on radiative corrections to Higgs boson masses and couplings are reviewed. The phenomenology of supersymmetric Higgs searches at…

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…
The existence of Beyond Standard Model (BSM) physics is firmly suggested by both experimental observations (Dark Matter, neutrino masses) and theoretical arguments. In the hypothesis that the scale of new physics is considerably higher than…
We revisit the calculation of the electron, neutron, and proton electric dipole moments (EDMs) in the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model (CMSSM). The relatively large mass of the Higgs boson, $m_H \simeq 125$ GeV coupled with…
Six major frameworks have emerged attempting to describe particle physics beyond the Standard Model. Despite their different theoretical genera, these frameworks have a number of common phenomenological features and problems. While it will…
A brief review is made of some of the experimental signatures that may be associated to a certain class of extensions of the standard model. The material of these lectures is divided into two sections. After briefly sketching the present…
We survey some recent ideas and progress in looking for particle physics beyond the Standard Model, connected by the theme of Supersymmetry (SUSY). We review the success of SUSY-GUT models, the expected experimental signatures and present…
Ten reasons are given why supersymmetry is the leading candidate for physics beyond the Standard Model. Ultimately, the experimental discovery of supersymmetric particles at future colliders will determine whether supersymmetry is relevant…
We present a unified no-scale supergravity model with a light gravitino that can naturally explain the observed $ee\gamma\gamma$ event at CDF via right-handed selectron pair-production. The full spectrum of our model can be described in…
A Brief review on the physics beyond the Standard Model.
Many experiments are underway in the world to search for a non-zero electric dipole moment (EDM) of a particle with spin 1/2 such as the neutron or the electron. Finding an EDM would reveal new sources of CP violation. EDM measurements are…
In the first lecture, the Standard Model is reviewed, with the aim of seeing how its successes constrain possible extensions, the significance of the apparently low Higgs mass indicated by precision electroweak experiments is discussed, and…
The minimal supergravity model (SUGRA), with gauge coupling unification and radiative electroweak symmetry breaking, is a well-motivated paradigm for physics Beyond the Standard Model. In this talk, I review the capabilities of various…

There is great interest within the particle physics community for building a $\mu^+\mu^-$ collider with center-of-mass (CoM) energies ranging from $\sqrt{s}\sim$ 1-14 TeV. For Beyond-the-Standard-Model (BSM) physics, natural supersymmetry…
Searches for physics beyond the Standard Model are reported from electron-proton collisions at a center of mass energy of 318 GeV. Results on a completely model independent search for deviations from Standard Model predictions at large…
A search for diphoton events with large missing transverse momentum has been performed using 1.07 fb^-1 of proton-proton collision data at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector. No excess of events was observed above the Standard…
