Session 6 Links, Materials, Assignment

Dark Matter
August 5, 2020
7pm - 9pm Eastern time
Learning objectives: In this lecture, we will discuss the evidence for dark matter and the different ways scientists are studying it. We will end the course with a discussion of what’s next in particle physics and why particle physics is worth doing.
Session 5 Links, Materials, Assignment

Neutrino Physics
July 29, 2020
7pm - 9pm Eastern time
Learning objectives: In this lecture, we will discuss the big questions and big experiments in neutrino physics.
Session 4 Links, Materials, Assignment

Beyond the Standard Model at the Large Hadron Collider
July 22, 2020
7pm - 9pm Eastern time
Learning objectives: In this lecture, we will discuss how physicists use the LHC to search for evidence of new physics. We will briefly talk about prospects for future colliders after the LHC.

Particle Physics at the Large Hadron Collider
July 15, 2020
7pm - 9pm Eastern time
Learning objectives: In this lecture, we will finish the history of the Standard Model and discuss how physicists use colliders to probe fundamental particles and discover new particles such as the Higgs boson.
Session 2 Links, Materials, Assignment

Historical Overview of the Standard Model’s Development - Part 2
July 8, 2020
7pm - 9pm Eastern time
Learning objectives: Understand the driving motivations and important events in the history of particle physics and quantum field theory. Part 2 will cover the history of the Quark model, neutrinos, force particles, and the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012.
Session 1 Links, Materials, Assignment

Historical Overview of the Standard Model’s Development - Part 1
July 1, 2020
7pm - 9pm Eastern time
Learning objectives: Understand the driving motivations and important events in the history of particle physics and quantum field theory. Part 1 will cover the theories of the ancient Greeks up to the development of quantum mechanics.
