Searching for new physics at the Large Hadron Collider: some frustration, but no despair
Prof. Dr. Michael Krämer, RWTH Aachen, Physik

The Large Hadron Collider LHC has probed the structure of matter at the Terascale with unprecedented breadth and precision. The wealth of exciting results include the discovery of a Higgs-like particle at a mass of around 125 GeV, but no sign for physics beyond the standard model of particle physics could be established. I will review the theoretical motivation for new physics at the Terascale, summarise the current searches at the LHC and their implications for popular new physics models like supersymmetry, and discuss the prospects for physics at the LHC in the next decade.
