L2.00001: Beyond the Standard Model? Invited Speaker: Ann Nelson The LHC has already severely constrained the allowed parameter space for many versions of supersymmetry and other models which address the gauge hierarchy problem, as well as providing hints of a 125 GeV mass Higgs boson. I will discuss the implications of LHC searches for supersymmetric and other models of electroweak symmetry breaking. I will also review the status of some of the current anomalies in CP violation.

L2.00002: Searches for physics beyond the standard model at the Tevatron Invited Speaker: Graham Wilson Results from searches for physics beyond the Standard Model from the CDF and D0 experiments at the Fermilab Tevatron proton anti-proton collider are reviewed. Each experiment has now collected about 10 inv fb of integrated luminosity over the 11-year period of ``RunII'' at a center-of-mass energy of 2 TeV. Presented results will focus on areas which complement the LHC searches with 1 - 5 inv fb at 7 TeV in proton-proton collisions. One of the most intriguing results which will be highlighted is the observation and further analysis by the D0 experiment of a significant like-sign di-muon asymmetry. Related measurements with flavor-specific asymmetries and channels such as $\mathrm{B}_s \rightarrow \mathrm{J}/\psi \; \phi$ which may be sensitive to new physics in B mixing will also be discussed. Searches for new phenomena will be reviewed including amongst others results of model-independent searches, stable charged heavy particle searches and searches with tri-leptons and same-sign di-leptons. Results of searches for Higgs-like particles beyond the Standard Model Higgs will also be reviewed with an emphasis on areas that are complementary and competitive with the LHC. [Preview Abstract] |

L2.00003: Results of searches for physics beyond the standard model at CERN Invited Speaker: David Berge Recent results from searches for new physics beyond the Standard Model performed with the ATLAS and CMS detectors at CERN's LHC will be reviewed in this talk. [Preview Abstract] |
