Recent results from the ATLAS experiment at the LHC (II)

[Abstract]

This is the second talk of the two consecutive seminars reviewing the latest results from the ATLAS experiment. ATLAS is one of the two general purpose experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) hosted at European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, Switzerland. By the end of 2018, the ATLAS experiment has collected 140 fb-1 of data at √s=13 TeV. In this talk, I will give a brief introduction about the ATLAS detector and an overview of the latest results from the ATLAS experiment on searches for physics beyond the Standard Model in various perspectives, ranging from Higgs boson, Supersymmetry, dark matter, etc.

[About the speaker]

Hideki Okawa received his B.S. in 2004 and PhD in 2010 from the University of Tokyo in Japan. He has been involved in the ATLAS experiment at CERN, Switzerland since 2006. After graduation, he worked as a postdoctoral scholar at University of California, Irvine and later at Brookhaven National Laboratory in the USA. From 2014, he joined University of Tsukuba in Japan as an international tenure-track assistant professor and was tenured in 2018. He will join Fudan University as a full professor. His research interest ranges from Higgs, dark matter, supersymmetry, new physics searches in general, quark-gluon plasma as well as various reconstruction algorithms such as missing transverse momentum and jet substructure.
