As a large particle physics laboratory, CERN offers a wide range of facilities and expertise. This provides significant opportunities for new experiments complementary to the Large Hadron Collider and future colliders. Physics Beyond Colliders is a CERN study group dedicated to
explore these intriguing options. In this talk, we will look at a range of experiments under discussion and explore their complementary sensitivity to so-called feebly interacting particles. Special attention will be given to axion-like particles (ALPs), which are candidates for particles that could explain various existing hints for physics beyond the Standard Model.
Prof. Joerg Jaeckel studied physics and received his doctoral degree at the University of Heidelberg in Germany. Subsequent positions brought him to DESY (Hamburg, Germany) and Durham University (UK) before becoming full professor back at the Institute of Theoretical Physics of the University of Heidelberg in 2012. His principle area of investigation is in theoretical physics, more specifically particle phenomenology & cosmology, and the search for light hidden particles as signatures of physics beyond the Standard Model. In 2016, Prof. Jaeckel joined the newly created Physics Beyond Colliders (PBC) Study Group at CERN, an exploratory study which aims at exploiting the full scientific potential of CERN's accelerator complex and technical infrastructure, as well as CERNs know-how in accelerator and detector science and technology, and providing essential input for the European Strategy for Particle Physics Update 2020.
