Recent ATLAS Higgs Results and KoRIA 2nd AKPA Physics Symposium January 20, 2012 Dr. Jaehoon Yu Outline • • • • • What is High Energy Physics? Where are we at present with Higgs? What have we seen in Higgs at the LHC? What can we do with KoRIA? Conclusions High Energy Physics • Definition: A field of physics that pursues understanding the fundamental constituents of matter and basic principles of interactions between them. • Known interactions (forces): – Gravitational – Electro-Weak – Strong • Current theory: The Standard Model of Particle Physics – – – – Unified Weak and Electromagnetic: SU(2)xU(1) Strong Interaction: SU(3) Currently:SU(3)xSU(2)xU(1) Meaning: 8+4 mediators for forces Jan. 20, 2012 ATLAS Higgs, HEP and KoRIA Dr. Jaehoon Yu 2 The Standard Model of Particle Physics • Prescribes the following fundamental structure: Discovered in 1995, ~175mp ~0.1mp Directly observed in 2000 Family • Three families of leptons and quarks together with 12 force mediators Simple and elegant!!! • Jan.Tested to a precision ofHEP1andpart million! 20, 2012 ATLAS Higgs, KoRIA per Dr. 3 Jaehoon Yu Good, but still lots we don’t know… • Why are there three families of quarks and leptons? • Why is the mass range so large (0.1mp – 175 mp)? • How do matters acquire mass? – Higgs mechanism but where is the Higgs, the God particle? • Why is the matter in the universe made only of particles? – What happened to anti-particles? Or anti-matters? • Why are there only three apparent forces? • Is the picture we present the real thing? – What makes up the 96% of the universe? – How about extra-dimensions? • How is the universe created? • Are there any other theories that describe the universe better? – Does the super-symmetry exist?
