High Energy Physics Research: Experimental & Theoretical (Final Report)
The research at the energy frontier was to explore high energy and luminosity collisions at the LHC using the ATLAS and CMS detectors to lead physics analyses in characterization of the Higgs Boson, to search for its potential partners, to lead searches for Dark Matter and to make extensive studies of Electroweak phenomena. The objectives are also to operate and upgrade the ATLAS and CMS detectors and their computing to optimize their physics performance in the present data taking and to enable the full exploitation of planned High Luminosity LHC. The research for the theory frontier was to analyze and interpret the new data from the experimental frontiers: energy, cosmic and intensity (Phenomenology), to investigate new theories of high energy physics extending the standard model by including gravity within consistent frameworks such as string theory, and examine their phenomenological and cosmological implications (String Theory and Theoretical Cosmology.)
