Title
Probing Dark Universe at the LHC
Speaker
Prof. Shih-Chieh Hsu (University of Washington)Abstract
New weakly-coupled particles are popularly predicted beyond the Standard Model with unique experimental signatures. Gravitational anomaly observation since 20th century suggests strong evidence of dark matter although not a single experiment has yielded a definitive trace of it. In theory, Weakly Interacting Massive Particles, hypothetical particles constitute dark matter, could be created by colliding standard particles at high energies and be detected through "missing" energy signature. Such approach is pursued at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator. In this talk, I'll discuss key signatures and the latest results of dark matter searches at the LHC with special focus on dark matter in association production with the Higgs boson.
In addition to dark matter search, I'll also briefly discuss new experiment proposals to search for weakly-coupled particle with long-lived signature by ForwArd Search ExpeRiment (FASER) and MAssive Timing Hodoscope for Ultra Stable neutraL pArticles (MATHUSLA).
