K2.00001: Jet Substructure: Boosting the Search for New Physics at the LHC Invited Speaker: Jesse Thaler Collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are dominated by jets, collimated sprays of particles that are proxies for underlying quarks and gluons. With the remarkable performance of the ATLAS and CMS detectors, jets can now be characterized not just by their overall direction and energy but also by their substructure. In this talk, I highlight the ways that jet substructure has enhanced the search for new physics at the LHC, including recent excitement over a possible diboson excess. I also explain how theoretical studies of jet substructure have taught us surprising lessons about the nature of the strong force. [Preview Abstract] |

K2.00002: SUSY searches at the LHC Invited Speaker: Dominick Olivito A summary of experimental searches for Supersymmetry at the CERN LHC will be presented. Results will be covered from the ATLAS and CMS collaborations using proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. [Preview Abstract] |

K2.00003: Non-SUSY search for BSM physics at the LHC. Invited Speaker: James Proudfoot The Large Hadron Collider has restarted pp collisions at 13 TeV center of mass energy in June 2015. The ATLAS and CMS experiments have taken data at this new energy which allows greater reach in probing for physics beyond the Standard Model. Results on searches for physics not associated with supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model are presented, including searches for strongly produced dark matter and new massive gauge bosons.
