[seminar] Podsjetnik: Danas u 14:00, Twinning Lectures - Andrea Romanino (15 - 17 May 2017)

[RBI- T-WINNING]

Dear all,

It is our great pleasure to announce another set of *Twinning lectures*
<http://rbi-t-winning.irb.hr/index.php?title=Lectures>:
In the week of May 15, the Division of Theoretical Physics will host *Andrea
Romanino*, Full Professor of the International School for Advanced Studies
(SISSA, Trieste) who will give lectures on *Selected topics on the Standard
Model and beyond*.


*Abstract*:
*In the first lecture I will present the Standard Model (SM) in a form that
is particularly **suitable to incorporate new physics extensions and I will
discuss the **features of the SM that represent a challenge for such
extensions. In the second **lecture I will discuss the possibility to
account for all the SM gauge interactions **in terms of a unified theory,
and in particular the simplest implementation **of such a possibility based
on the SU(5) group. In the last lecture I **will critically review the
Naturalness argument associated to the Higgs mass. **The expectation that
the LHC would have by now found signals of new physics **was based on that
very argument. I will therefore discuss its status in the light **of the
lack of such signals so far. *


*Lectures schedule*:
