Résumé |
It is hardly a secret that evidence of new physics at the LHC has been far more elusive than many hoped and
even expected back in 2008/9. Myriad data analyses have been performed, but despite several transient
excitements the final answer has so far always been negative. As we approach the LHC's second long
shutdown, it is reasonable to ask whether targetted search analyses based on simplified BSM models is
sufficient for the physics within the LHC reach: perhaps the effects we are looking for will require cross-
referencing of many disparate search strategies, in more general models. I will describe the growing activity
and technology in various degrees of global fitting, from combinations of top-quark and SM observables, to
LHC search surveys and scans, and to truly "synoptic" BSM fits extending far beyond collider physics. |
