An exciting programme of lectures and hands-on sessions will discuss the
mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking within the Standard Model and beyond,
including supersymmetry and Higgs-less models and searches for the elusive Higgs boson at
the LHC:
- The how's and why's of electroweak symmetry breaking
- Why do we need a scalar Higgs boson?
- Higgs boson hunting at the LHC
- Recent results from ATLAS and CMS
- Simulating golden plated modes
