Beyond the Standard Model
PHYSICS 283B
Subject & Catalog Number
Course Information
Description
We will study beyond the Standard Model theories with an eye both to phenomenological consequences and to connections to high energy theory. We will study supersymmetry as well as extra-dimensional theories. If time permits we will also study light axion-like particles and ways of detecting them.
Recommended Prep
The material will be largely self-contained, but some familiarity with the basics of special relativity and quantum mechanics may be useful.
