报告摘要：When the CMS and ATLAS experiments at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) announced the discovery the Higgs Boson in July of 2012, this completed what is known as the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. However, it was already apparent that there were phenomena in nature that were not explained by the SM and that additional physics "beyond the Standard Model (BSM)" was needed. There is reason to believe that some of the BSM physics will be accessible with more data at the LHC. After describing the LHC and the CMS detector, I will discuss recent results from CMS on the search for physics beyond the SM; prospects for the data-taking period that is just starting and will last for about two more years; CERN's plan to increase the LHC luminosity (collision rate) far beyond its initial design; and the CMS collaboration's plans to upgrade the detector to handle the higher rates.

 

报告人简介：Dr. Butler is the spokesperson of CMS experiment at Large Hadron Collider (LHC) of CERN. He has been a research scientist and leader in the heavy flavor program at Fermilab for 37 years, holding several senior management positions. From 1998, Dr. Butler started his program at CMS, and his activities include work on hardware, computing, upgrades, physics, and management: He is the coordinator of CMS software and computing challenge (CSA14); main CMS author/editor of observation of the rare B_s⁰->μ⁺μ^- decay with LHCb published in Nature; the reviewer of conference talks and proceedings for the SUSY group; member of LHC Physics Center Management Board; program manager of U.S. CMS Operation Program; coordinator of CMS phase 1 upgrade technical proposal; chair of architecture working group at Models of Networked Analysis at Regional Centre (MONARC) during LHC analysis. Because his scientific leadership and management experience, Dr. Butler also serves on many important review committees.
