"Higgs physics after the discovery"
10/29/2012Special guest in our Physics Colloquium: Prof. Dr. Georg Weiglein (DESY Hamburg)
Abstract:
The spectacular discovery at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) of a Higgs-like particle with a mass of about 126 GeV, which has recently been announced by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations, marks a milestone of an effort that has been ongoing for almost half a century and opens up a new era of particle physics.
It will be discussed in this talk what is known about this new particle up to now and what the
implications are for its theoretical interpretation. The future prospects in the quest for identifying the underlying nature of physics at the Terascale will also be addressed.
