If you have a question about this talk, please contact Zhang Xianghao Jeffrey. Dark Matter is one of the biggest puzzles in science today. Astronomical observations tell us Dark Matter makes up 26% of our universe and experiences the gravitational force, yet we still know very little beyond this. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN has been built to try and understand some of the long-standing questions in science. Over 10,000 scientists come together from around the world to run mankind’s biggest experiment in history, discovering the Higgs boson in 2012 that explains the origins of mass, and continuing to search for new, exotic particles that could explain Dark Matter. I will introduce the LHC and the largest of the four main detectors, ATLAS . I’ll show you how and why we search for a rich array of new particles predicted by Supersymmetry and the latest results from these searches. As the LHC program moves into its final stage, what further secrets of the universe will we uncover? This talk is part of the SciSoc – Cambridge University Scientific Society series.
