Hunting for the Higgs Boson and more at the LHC (Recent results from ATLAS and CMS)
Prof. Dr. Peter Jenni (European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN))

Since two years experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have started exploring the physics at the high energy frontier. A rich harvest of initial physics results has been obtained by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations that allow one already to test, at highest energies ever reached in a laboratory, the Standard Model (SM) of elementary particles, and to make searches Beyond the SM (BSM). Significant results have already been obtained in searches for the Higgs Boson, which would establish the postulated electro-weak symmetry breaking mechanism in the SM, as well as for BSM physics like Supersymmetry (SUSY), Extra Dimensions, production of new heavy particles and others. The status of these searches, and the future prospects at the LHC, will be covered in this talk.
