Physics at Virginia

ABSTRACT:
The Higgs Boson discovery in 2012 required us to think differently about planning for the future of Particle Physics twice now, since that summer 12 years ago. While the decades-long confirmation of the Standard Model itself is a historic episode – as a guide to the future, it’s not as helpful as one would like because the Standard Model is complete! I will describe Particle Physics planning in the US, review the features of the Standard Model that make it superb, point out why it’s frustrating, and describe hints that continue to motivate us for the coming decades. |
