This album features seminars on theoretical and experimental particle physics. Topics include supersymmetry, the Large Hadron Collider, electroweak symmetry breaking, cosmology and gravity.

Latest Episodes:

MFV SUSY: A Natural Alternative to R-parity Nov 09, 2011

Show notes

Ben Heidenreich discusses constraining R-parity violation with minimal flavor violation.

Collective R-parity Violation Nov 09, 2011

Show notes

This video offers an alternative scheme to allow R-parity violation with phenomenological disasters.

Stealth SUSY Nov 09, 2011

Show notes

Matt Reece talks about near degeneracy of superpartners enforced by the couplings of a new sector to supersymmetry breaking.

Supersymmetry Status Report Nov 08, 2011

Show notes

Stuart gives the status of searches for supersymmetry (SUSY) at the LHC.

Supersymmetry Prospects at ATLAS Nov 08, 2011

Show notes

Gordon Watts gives the status and prospects for supersymmetry searches with the ATLAS detector.

Stop NLSP's Nov 08, 2011

Show notes

David Shih discusses the phenomenology of the stop squark as the the next to lightest superpartner.

Natural SUSY Endures Nov 08, 2011

Show notes

How the absence of supersymmetric signatures at the LHC do not yet conflict with naturalness.

Scale Without Conformal Invariance Nov 07, 2011

Show notes

Fortin investigates the theoretical implications of scale without conformal invariance in quantum field theory, arguing that the RG flows of such theories correspond to recurrent behaviors, i.e. limit cycles or ergodicity. He also discusses the implications for the a-theorem and show how dilatation generators do generate dilatations. Finally, Fortin discusses well-behaved non-conformal scale-invariant examples.

Hunting de Sitter Holography From the Bottom Up Oct 31, 2011

Show notes

Baumgart explores the relation between eternal inflation and de Sitter holography.

Supersymmetry Searches with B-jets at CMS Oct 25, 2011

Show notes

Many models for Supersymmetry (SUSY) predict strong coupling to third-generation Standard Model particles. As part of a broad program of complementary searches for SUSY, CMS has two recent analyses requiring b-jets in the final state. I will present these latest results, each performed with 1.1 fb^-1 of data.
