Beyond the SM from Colliders to the Early Universe

27 May 2023, 09:30 → 30 May 2023, 22:30 America/Chicago

Eckhart Research Center 161 (U Chicago)

Patrick Fox (Fermilab), Howard Haber (University of California, Santa Cruz), Ian Low (Argonne/Northwestern), Joseph Lykken (Fermilab), David Morrissey (TRIUMF), Nausheen Shah (Wayne State University), Liantao Wang (University of Chicago), Rik Yoshida (ANL)

This symposium will gather leading experts to evaluate the present status of the Standard Model of particle physics in light of recent results from high-energy particle colliders and cosmological observations of the early Universe.  Furthermore, a roadmap of future research explorations will be discussed and debated.
