Education

Lecture #4 on 8 November 2016


All intrested are kindly invited to hear a course of lectures on Higgs boson physics «Higgs mechanism in the Standard Model and beyond». The 6 seminars of the lecture course will be held on 1-3 and 8-10 November 2016, from 10.00 am until 12.00 am in the Conference Hall of the Dzhelepov Laboratory of Nuclear Problems.

Speaker: I.P. Ivanov (CFTP, Instituto Superior Tecnico, U. Lisboa)

Seminars topics, 8-10 November:

  • EWSB in terms of gauge-invariant quantities, Elitzur’s theorem.
  • More than one Higgs doublet:
    • Higgs mechanism in MSSM: initial lagrangian, minimizing potential and tan β, physical Higgs spectrum: h, H, A, H ± , their couplings to other particles, very brief remarks on phenomenology.
    • Inert doublet model: a simplest model with symmetry-protected DM candidate.
    • Several Higgses in fermion sector: lepton-flavour-violatiing decays, flavour-changing neutral coupling. Recent hints on H → μτ and deviations in b → s“.
  • Short intro in models with Higgs singlets or higher representations.
  • Short intro in Higgs sectors in models with higher gauge groups (with the example of 331 model).
