Beyond the Standard Model CERN summer student lectures 2016

Lecture 1/ 4

Ch!"ope Grojean DESY (Hamburg) ICREA@IFAE (Barcelona) ( christophe.grojean@.ch ) What is beyond the Standard Model?

I don’t know. Nobody knows If it were known,? it would be part of the SM! You won’t learn during these lectures what is BSM (maybe) you’ll learn what BSM could be “Looking and not finding is different than not looking” we’ll study the limitations/defaults of the SM as a guide towards BSM we want to learn from our failures Christophe Grojean BSM 2 CERN, July 2016 Summary • many multi-boson measurements in Run-1 The• large SM number and... of thedi-boson LHC measurements data so far • evidence forrules VBS the W± Wworld!±jj and tri-boson Wyy [and we, HEP practitioners, are all entitled for some royalties!] • eagerly awaiting Run-2 data StandardModelPublicResults

Planck Collaboration: Cosmological parameters

Christophe Grojean BSM 4 CERN, July 2016 Fig. 1. Planck foreground-subtracted temperature power spectrum (with foreground and other “nuisance” parameters fixed to their best-fit values for the base ⇤CDM model). The power spectrum at low multipoles (` = 2–49, plotted on a logarithmic multi- pole scale) is determined by the Commander algorithm applied to the Planck maps in the frequency range 30–353 GHz over 91% of the sky. This is used to construct a low-multipole temperature likelihood using a Blackwell-Rao estimator, as described in Planck Collaboration XV (2013). The asymmetric error bars show 68% confidence limits and include the contribution from un- certainties in foreground subtraction. At multipoles 50 ` 2500 (plotted on a linear multipole scale) we show the best-fit CMB spectrum computed from the CamSpec likelihood (see Planck  Collaboration XV 2013) after removal of unresolved foreground com- ponents. The light grey points show the power spectrum multipole-by-multipole. The blue points show averages in bands of width ` 31 together with 1 errors computed from the diagonal components of the band-averaged covariance matrix (which includes contributions⇡ from beam and foreground uncertainties). The red line shows the temperature spectrum for the best-fit base ⇤CDM . The lower panel shows the power spectrum residuals with respect to this theoretical model. The green lines show the 1 errors on the individual power spectrum estimates at high multipoles computed from the CamSpec covariance matrix. Note the change± in vertical scale in the lower panel at ` = 50.
