In summary, the conversation was about a presentation on the topic of vanishing dimensions and planar events at the LHC, given by Greg LANDSBERG. It was mentioned that at short distances, space becomes effectively 2-dimensional, while at large distances it is 4-dimensional. Links were provided to papers by LANDSBERG and to a time table for the conference. Additionally, two other presentations on the physics of top, W, and Z particles and electro-weak symmetry breaking were mentioned.

I do not think that the following was presented as a live video.

Vanishing Dimensions and Planar Events at the LHC

LANDSBERG, Greg

14:20 - 14:35
Room: Salle 242B

At short distances, the dimensions of space vanish one- by-one:
–at the intermediate scale, space is 3-dimensional
–at scales ~1 TeV-1 space is effectively 2-dimensional
–at even shorter distances (e.g., in the Big Bang) it is 1- dimensional
Conversely, at large distances, the dimensionality increases; at very large distances space is effectively
4-dimensional

Now for something more mainstream.

You can get a preview of a summary by looking at the slides that have been posted.

Here is the time table for monday.

1. What is the Standard Model?

The Standard Model is a theory in physics that describes the fundamental particles and forces that make up our universe. It includes three of the four known fundamental forces - the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, and the electromagnetic force - but does not incorporate gravity. It has been extensively tested and has accurately predicted many experimental results.

2. What is the goal of Beyond the Standard Model research?

The goal of Beyond the Standard Model research is to improve upon or extend the Standard Model in order to address unanswered questions and limitations of the current theory. This includes topics such as dark matter, the hierarchy problem, and the unification of all fundamental forces.

3. What is the significance of the Paris ICHEP conference?

The Paris ICHEP (International Conference on High Energy Physics) is a major conference where scientists from around the world gather to present and discuss the latest research in high energy physics. It is a significant event for the field of Beyond the Standard Model research as it provides a platform for the exchange of ideas and collaboration among experts in the field.

4. What are some current topics being discussed at the Paris ICHEP related to Beyond the Standard Model?

Some current topics being discussed at the Paris ICHEP related to Beyond the Standard Model include searches for new particles, theories of supersymmetry, and extensions of the Higgs boson. There are also discussions on the latest experimental results and their implications for Beyond the Standard Model theories.

5. What impact could advancements in Beyond the Standard Model research have on our understanding of the universe?

If successful, advancements in Beyond the Standard Model research could greatly expand our understanding of the universe and its fundamental laws. It could help explain phenomena such as dark matter and dark energy, and potentially unify all fundamental forces. It could also lead to new technologies and applications, as well as further advancements in our understanding of the origins and evolution of the universe.
