Title: Physics at Hadron Colliders Lecturer: Dr Karl Jakobs Date and Times: 1st August at 11:15 2nd August at 10:15 3rd August at 10:15 3rd August at 11:15 Summary of the proposed talk: Present and future hadron colliders play an important role in the investigation of fundamental questions of particle physics. After an introductory lecture, tests of the Standard Model and measurements of its parameters (like the mass of the top quark) at hadron colliders are presented. In addition, it will be discussed how the Higgs boson can be searched for at hadron colliders and how "New Physics", i.e. physics beyond the Standard Model, can be explored. Results are presented from the currently ongoing run at the Tevatron proton antiproton collider at the US research lab Fermilab. In addition, the rich physics potential of the experiments at the CERN Large Hadron Collider is discussed. Prerequisite knowledge and references: - The Standard Model (Lecture by A.
