Electroweak Symmetry Breaking and Physics Beyond the Standard Model
Abstract
Description
In order to extend the Standard Model to TeV scale energies one must address two basic questions: (1) What is the complete description of the effective theory of fundamental particles at and below the electroweak scale? and (2) What is the dynamics responsible for electroweak symmetry breaking? The answers to these questions are crucial for addressing the third outstanding question of particle physics: What are the origins of the Standard Model parameters? We briefly summarize current theoretical approaches to answering these questions.
