Title: (i) Search for Higgs+photon production at LHC and constraints on light quark Yukawa couplings; (ii) Sensitivity to CP violation in the Higgs-strahlung process at a Future Circular Collider. Abstract: (i) A search for Higgs+photon production is performed with the LHC data for the first time. The analysis focuses on the topology of a boosted Higgs […]
Title: The Formation of Galaxies and Supermassive Black Holes in the First Billion Years
TITLE: Exploring Planetary-Mass Brown Dwarfs in Young Star Clusters with JWST ABSTRACT: The discovery and characterization of free-floating planetary-mass objects (FFPMOs) is fundamental to our understanding of star and planet formation. The James Webb Space Telescope affords the opportunity to search for objects down to the opacity limit for fragmentation in nearby star-forming regions. We […]

Title: Around the forces in 80 microseconds Abstract: With large amounts of data, a Higgs boson discovery, and world-leading constraints on an enormous amount of parameters and interactions, the Large Hadron Collider has been a phenomenal tool. However, it is going through a mid-life crisis. More data, more Higgs bosons, and more constraints are not bringing the same […]
Title: Exploring Cosmic Acceleration: Insights from DESI 2024 JHU/STScI Joint Colloquium: Hee-Jong Seo (Ohio University)
TITLE: Multi-messenger observations of gravitational waves sources: from LIGO to Cosmic Explorer, ABSTRACT: The direct detection of gravitational waves is revolutionizing our view of the universe and has opened a new era in the field of time-domain multi-messenger astronomy. In this talk, I will summarize key open questions on the astrophysics of stellar-mass compact objects […]

Title: Dark QCD: the Next Frontier in Dark Matter Abstract: There has been a surge of interest in hidden valley models with new, strong forces, sometimes called "dark QCD". These models propose asymmetric, composite dark matter in the form of "dark hadrons" that would evade direct and indirect bounds as well as typical collider DM searches for […]
