MPP Colloquium

Discovery of the Higgs-Boson? - The role of theory

by Prof. Robert Harlander (Wuppertal University)

Europe/Berlin
Description
The discovery of a Higgs-like particle at the LHC is a milestone of modern elementary particle physics. The excitement about this remarkable achievement sometimes obscures the fact that it rests on a close interplay between experiment and theory. This talk puts the emphasis on the theoretical efforts related to the search, exclusion, discovery and measurement of the Higgs boson.
