Title: Looking for scalar dark matter with rods and clocks
Host: Ennio Salvioni
Room: 432
Abstract: If the dark matter is made up of a bosonic particle, it can be ultralight, with a mass potentially much below 1 eV. Well-known DM candidates of this type include pseudoscalars like the QCD axion, and vectors such as hidden photons kinetically mixed with the Standard Model. Moduli, even-parity scalars with nonderivative couplings to the SM, can also be light dark matter. I will show that they cause tiny fractional oscillations of SM parameters, such as the electron mass and the fine-structure constant, in turn modulating length and time scales of atoms. Rods and clocks, used in gedanken experiments in relativity, have since transformed into actual precision instruments. The size of acoustic resonators and the frequency of optical clocks can now be measured to 1 part in 10^23 and 10^18, respectively, and thus constitute sensitive probes of moduli.
In this talk, I will give an overview of the parameter space of modulus dark matter, and discuss the sensitivity of the proposed experiments compared to existing constraints from fifth-force tests.

Title: Implications of LHC Higgs results for the MSSM
Host: Ennio Salvioni
Room: 432
Abstract: LHC measurements of the Higgs boson mass and signal rates have strong implications for new physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM). I shall introduce the public computer tools HiggsBounds and HiggsSignals which can be utilized to confront arbitrary BSM Higgs sectors with the experimental results from Higgs searches. Employing these tools I will then focus on the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) and address two questions: First, what are the possible interpretations of the discovered Higgs boson within the MSSM? Second, motivated by the possibility of successful electroweak baryogenesis through a light top squark in the MSSM, how low can the mass of the light top squark be?
