For example, why is there such a large asymmetry between matter and anti-matter? What is the nature of dark matter?  How does the Higgs boson interact with itself? In this seminar, I will discuss the results from the ATLAS experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider obtained in the search for answers to some of these questions. More specifically, I will discuss how the recently discovered Higgs boson is being used to test rare predictions of the Standard Model for any potential deviation and subsequent insight into new laws of physics.   4138 Physics Research Building @ 1:00pm Department of Physics physics@osu.edu America/New_York public
