Description

The Higgs boson: particle superhero and tour guide to new particles

The Higgs boson, discovered at the world’s largest particle collider LHC ten years ago,
is a very special particle. We need to study it in great detail to answer key questions
of physics. The Higgs boson may have been a superhero that saved us from complete
annihilation and it can be the portal to a new world of particles with possible links to
dark matter and dark energy.
This lecture by the Japanese-American scientist Hitoshi Murayama is aimed at the general
public. Murayama discusses the fascinating exploration of a future particle physics era
with the help of a new collider. It is followed by a round-table discussion about the need
for a new collider, the discoveries that could be made and the different options that are on
the table.

Panelists include the renowned physicists J. Butterworth (U. College London),
F. Canelli (U. of Zurich), F. Gianotti (CERN), B. Heinemann (DESY), K. Jakobs (U. of Freiburg),
H. Murayama (UC Berkeley and IPMU) and J. Thaler (MIT)

This event is a cooperation between DESY, University of Hamburg and the DPG. Registration is not necessary, the event will be streamed on YouTube.
