Title: Search for physics beyond standard model in CMS

Speaker: Dr. Swagata Mukherjee, RWTH Aachen University

Abstract: In the last ten years we have experienced the start and the first triumphs of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) located at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. Surely, the discovery of a Standard Model-like Higgs boson by the CMS and ATLAS collaborations in 2012 stands out within this context. With this discovery, all of the fundamental particles in the standard model of particle physics have been observed. Nevertheless, many open questions in particle physics make it clear that the Standard Model is not a complete theory, and the main goal now is to discover what lies beyond the Standard Model. I will describe some existing searches from the CMS experiment at the LHC with pp collision data at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV.
