Page 3: Summary and Conclusions

The basis for everything at the LHC

Producing new particles– e.g., Higgs

Possible signals– e.g., boosted jets

Backgrounds– e.g., jets, pile-up

Cosmic rays– forward production

Page 4: Summary and Conclusions

Soft QCD• Underlying event (Mt, MW):

– Pile-up, colour reconnection, …• Important for some BSM signatures:

• RPV, long-lived, …• Interesting in own right:

– Total σ, single, multiple rapidity gaps, • Exclusive Higgs production: 420m, CPV?

• Near-side ridge: cf, heavy ions?• Forward particles: cosmic rays

Page 5: Summary and Conclusions

QCD Theory• Lund string vs clusters: “no new ideas in 30 years”

– Continuing work towards universal MC tunes• Which experimental measurements would help

make better event generators?• From soft to hard:

– Showers with Catani-Seymour dipoles– Matrix element-parton shower matching:

• differences for Higgs pT

– Boosted jets

Page 6: Summary and Conclusions

Hard QCD• Many perturbative QCD calculations to NNLO• Precision important for discovery & interpretation

– New input from string methodology• ✓ over many orders, to pT > 2 TeV• Measurement of αs

• Unsung PDF heroes• BUT: convergence for gg H?

– Better scheme than MSbar?• ISR? e.g., for dark matter search

Page 7: Summary and Conclusions

Hot and Dense Nuclear Matter• Explore QCD thermodynamics:

– QGP, CSB, deconfinement, …• Signatures:

– Particle abundances: few protons?– Strangeness enhancement– Direct photon production: TLHC = 1.37 TRHIC

– J/Ψ, ϒ suppression, recombination– Elliptic flow v2, etc.: small η– Jet quenching

Page 8: Summary and Conclusions

Page 9: Summary and Conclusions

Multiverse of Little Bangs• Thermalization at speed of light• Initial conditions, fluid properties• Various vn: hydrodynamics• AdS/CFT “bound”: η ≥ 1/4π

– RHIC: η < (3 to 6)/4π – LHC: η < (2 to 3)/4π

• Jet quenching• Dijet energy asymmetry• Near-side ridge(s): collective effects in pp, p-Pb?

Page 10: Summary and Conclusions

Electroweak Measurements• Impressive progress at LHC• Mt comparable to TeVatron• BUT: challenges for MW:

– pile-up, low-x PDFs, material, …• First measurement of

sin2θW = 0.2297 ± 0.0010• Single boson production

cross section large?

Page 11: Summary and Conclusions

Electroweak Measurements

• Diboson production constraints on couplings

– BUT: need more accurate diboson σ calculation

• Limited sensitivity to tribosons• Parameterize vertices using Leff

• Run at low pile-up?

Page 12: Summary and Conclusions

Electroweak Theory• From LEP paradox to LHC paradox

– Light Higgs + nothing else?– If something light, why no indirect evidence?

• If nothing light, is light Higgs unnatural?

• Electroweak and Higgs coupling measurements complement searches for New Physics

Page 13: Summary and Conclusions

Top Physics• Interesting, independently of electroweak theory• Added interest in view of EW

– Does top have partner: stop? T5/3, …

• Why are t and H living dangerously?– Coincidence that (Mh, Mt) close to stability boundary?

Page 14: Summary and Conclusions

Top Measurements• Many production mechanisms @ LHC:

– ttbar, single t, t + W/H, 4t?• What do we know so far?

– Vtb ~ 1– δMt ~ 0.5%, LHC to improve

(but colour reconnection, etc.)– Spin measurements

• Puzzle of AFB:– Measure Al

– Ac @ LHC

Page 15: Summary and Conclusions

Flavour Physics• CKM picture works very well• Dominates over new physics

– 2 + 13 modes of CPV– In K0, B0, B±, Bs systems– D0? New LHCb results

• Also rare decays: Bs μ+μ-

• Any new physics at TeV scale must copy CKM

– Minimal flavour violation

Page 16: Summary and Conclusions

Prospects @ LHC• Not just LHCb, also CMS & ATLAS• Bs μ+μ-: important constraint on BSM

– Need to push down to SM error– Measure Bd μ+μ-

– Is Bs τ+τ- observable?

• B K*μ+μ-: AFB zero crossing point ~ SM• LHCb upgrade in 2018:

– 40 MHz, trigger in software– L = 2 × 1033, 50/fb– Aim at φs, D CPV @ SM level, …

Page 17: Summary and Conclusions

B Factories• Measurements of sin 2β with error ~ LHCb/3• World leaders for α = 89.5+6.0

-6.3, γ = 67 ± 11• B Xγ and B τν constrain NP• Some puzzles:

– B D*τν 3σ from SM• SuperKEKB: luminosity × 40• Complementarity to LHCb• Some unique capabilities:

– Decays to νν; c and τ decays

Page 34: Summary and Conclusions

Completing the Holy Trinity• Hierarchy possible only in theory that can be

calculated over many magnitudes of energy“Renormalizable”

• Theorem: (1) vectors (2) fermions (3) scalars• Need to specify:(1) group (2) representations (3) symmetry breaking

(1) = SU(3) × SU(2) × U(1) [so far](2) = Singlets + doublets + triplets

• Finally:(3) A scalar and the mechanism of symmetry breaking

Cornwall, Levin & Tiktopoulos;Bell; Llewellyn-Smith

Page 35: Summary and Conclusions

Theoretical Constraints on Higgs Mass

• Large Mh → large self-coupling → blow up at low-energy scale Λ due to renormalization

• Small: renormalization due to t quark drives quartic coupling < 0at some scale Λ→ vacuum unstable

• Vacuum could be stabilized by SupersymmetryDegrassi, Di Vita, Elias-Miro, Giudice, Isodori & Strumia, arXiv:1205.6497

Page 36: Summary and Conclusions

Theoretical Confusion• High mortality rate among theories• (MH, Mt) close to stability bound• Λ close to Weinberg upper bound• Split SUSY? High-scale SUSY? • Modify/abandon naturalness? Does Nature care?• String landscape? • SUSY anywhere better than nowhere• SUSY could not explain the hierarchy• New ideas needed!

Page 37: Summary and Conclusions

• To Sherlock Holmes: “Is there any other point to which you would wish to draw my attention?”

• Holmes: "To the curious incident of the dog in the night-time."

• To Holmes:"The dog did nothing in the night-time."

• Holmes:"That was the curious incident.”

• We have many clues: Waiting for our Holmes: maybe a string player?

The Dog(s) that did not Bark

Page 38: Summary and Conclusions

• No convincing models• Anarchy works just fine!• Normal or inverted hierarchy?• Majorana or Dirac masses? (*)• CP violation? (*)• (*) Important in principle for leptogenesis, but not

sufficient to calculate it• Main competition weak-scale baryogenesis?• Seesaw mass scale accessible at LHC?

Neutrino Models

Page 39: Summary and Conclusions

Neutrino Experiments• Hierachy of masses?• ‘Holy Grail’ of CP violation?

– ESS 400 MeV ν source, Water Č• Sterile neutrinos?

– LSND, MiniBooNE, reactor anomaly• Possible experiments:

– IsoDAR, ICARUS/NESSIE (CERN)• Towards another ‘Holy Grail’?

– Cosmic neutrino background using Mcu of Tritium

Page 40: Summary and Conclusions

Astroparticle Physics• Focus on dark matter LHC• Interesting other topics:

– VHE ν’s in IceCube– Inflation (Planck): Higgs boson?

• Dark matter: axions or WIMPs?

– Strong CP problem not samenaturalness problem as Mh

– ADMX experiment probingdark matter parameter space

Page 41: Summary and Conclusions

Cosmological Inflation in Light of Planck

• A scalar in the sky?

Page 42: Summary and Conclusions

Inflationary Models in Light of Planck

• Planck CMB observations consistent with inflation• Tilted scalar perturbation spectrum:

ns = 0.9603 ± 0.073• BUT strengthened upper limit on tensor

perturbations: r < 0.10• Challenge for simple

inflationary models• Starobinsky R2 to rescue?• Similar predictions from Higgs inflation

Page 43: Summary and Conclusions

If at first you don’t succeed …• … postulate a new particle:

– QM and Special Relativity: Antimatter– Nuclear spectra: Neutron– Continuous spectrum in β decay: Neutrino– Nucleon-nucleon interactions: Pion– Absence of lepton number violation: Second neutrino– Flavour SU(3): Ω-

– Flavour SU(3): Quarks– FCNC: Charm– CP violation: Third generation– Strong dynamics: Gluons– Weak interactions: W±, Z0

– Renormalizability: H

– Dark matter: WIMP/axion?

Page 44: Summary and Conclusions

WIMP Searches• Direct search for dark matter scattering:

– Spin-independent and –dependentσ limits from XENON100, COUPP– CoGeNT & DAMA well excluded– 3 CDMS candidates (~ threshold, compatibility with XENON100?)

• Cf, monojet searches at LHC:– LHC wins for interactions with

quarks and gluons• XENON, DARWIN, EURECA

Page 45: Summary and Conclusions

Indirect WIMP Searches• Rising positron fraction?

– Require large boost factor– Limits from γ rays– No antiproton signal

• Fermi γ line @ 130 GeV: 4.6 σ(3.3 σ with look-elswhere effect)– Need σ > SUSY?– Seen from earth’s limb!– Test with HESS-II et al.Falsify WIMP hypothesis?

Page 46: Summary and Conclusions

What else is there?

Supersymmetry• Successful prediction for Higgs mass

– Should be < 130 GeV in simple models• Successful predictions for couplings

– Should be within few % of SM values• Naturalness, GUTs, string, … (???)

Page 50: Summary and Conclusions

What Next: A Higgs Factory?

To study the ‘Higgs’ in detail:• The LHC

– Rethink LHC upgrades in this perspective?• A linear collider?

– ILC up to 500 GeV– CLIC up to 3 TeV

(Larger cross section at higher energies)• A circular e+e- collider: LEP3, …

– A photon-photon collider: SAPPHiRE• A muon collider

Page 51: Summary and Conclusions

Future Accelerators• (What) precision, (how) high energy, neutrinos?• Which is THE top priority accelerator?

– Precision: HL-LHC, ILC/CLIC, TLEP, MC, γγ– Energy: HE-LHC, VHE-LHC, CLIC, MC– Neutrinos: from superbeam (ESS) to ν factory

• HL-LHC is not a done deal, needs high-tech: – 11T dipoles, 13T quads, 500m HTS link, crab cavities

• Worldwide collaborative R&D needed• No decision before LHC 13/14 TeV results

Page 54: Summary and Conclusions

European Strategy• Europe’s top priority should be the exploitation of the full

potential of the LHC, including the high-luminosity upgrade of the machine and detectors with a view to collecting ten times more data than in the initial design, by around 2030. This upgrade programme will also provide further exciting opportunities for the study of flavour physics and the quark-gluon plasma.

• CERN should undertake design studies for accelerator projects in a global context, with emphasis on proton-proton and electron- positron high-energy frontier machines. These design studies should be coupled to a vigorous accelerator R&D programme, including high-field magnets and high-gradient accelerating structures, in collaboration with national institutes, laboratories and universities worldwide.

Page 55: Summary and Conclusions

European Strategy

• … The initiative from the Japanese particle physics community to host the ILC in Japan is most welcome, and European groups are eager to participate. Europe looks forward to a proposal from Japan to discuss a possible participation.

• CERN should develop a neutrino programme to pave the way for a substantial European role in future long-baseline experiments. Europe should explore the possibility of major participation in leading long-baseline neutrino projects in the US and Japan.

Page 56: Summary and Conclusions

Big Accelerator Laboratories• Roles in Research/Innovation/Training/Outreach:

– Push forward frontiers of technology as well as science– Stimulate young people to study STEM subjects– Society needs to realize and appreciate science

• Sustained commitment, global collaboration, information sharing in pursuit of common goals

• Need accelerator projects in all regions– Do not underestimate the issues involved– Propose and discuss in international context

• Remember the last ‘green-field’ project

Page 57: Summary and Conclusions

Conversation with Mrs Thatcher: 1982

What do you do?

Think of things for the experiments to look

for, and hope they find something different

Wouldn’t it be better if theyfound what

you predicted?

Then we would not know how to proceed!
