UC Davis Particle Physics Seminars 2013 John Terning

Jonathan Hays describes the latest results from ATLAS on the Higgs.

Stephen Sekula discusses the latest results on searches for new physics at ATLAS and CMS.

Andrey Korytov gives the latest information on the Higgs data from CMS.

Gordan Krnjaic discusses how to search for models of gauged minimal flavor violation.

Roni Harnik describes how to search for new physics in Flavor and CP violating decays of the Higgs boson.

After the recent discovery at the LHC of a Higgs-like particle with mass around 125 GeV, it is mandatory to reassess the viability of the proposed solutions to the hierarchy problem of the electroweak scale. In this talk, Javi Serra focuses on compositeness as the fundamental idea, with the Higgs arising as a Goldstone boson of the new strong dynamics and discuss its exciting phenomenological implications, including the prospect of non-minimal scalar sectors and its significance for Higgs couplings.
