I Pontecorvo Colloquia sono incontri di Fisica, con seminari rivolti principalmente agli studenti, che illustrano le attività di ricerca del Dipartimento di Fisica dell’Università di Pisa e della Sezione di Pisa dell’INFN.
Per il ciclo primaverile dei Pontecorvo Colloquia 2022, il prof. Andreas Hoeker (CERN) presenta un seminario dal titolo “Smashing Discoveries-the Large Hadron Collider at CERN”
Abstract: In July 2022 particle physicists throughout the world celebrate the 10th anniversary of the discovery of the Higgs boson by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. The seminar introduces in accessible terms the adventure of the largest and most complex physics experiment every realised by humankind. I will recall the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, and discuss what the LHC physicists have learned about this mysterious particle and other high-energy physics phenomena in the ten years following the discovery. At the verge of a new data-taking period, I will also describe the hopes and challenges for the next decade.
Quando: h. 11.30, 29/06/2022
