| الوصف: | At the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), protons and heavy ions are accelerated to velocities close to the speed of light and collided in order to study particle interactions and give us an insight to the fundamental laws of nature. The energy and intensity of the particle beams at the LHC are unprecedented, and a tremendous amount of data is collected by three experiments on the circular ring of the LHC that are specialized in proton-proton collisions. The data confirm the most successful theory of particle physics to date known as the standard model of particle physics to very good precision, including the long expected and recently discovered Higgs boson. The standard model cannot, however, accommodate experimentally observed phenomena like gravity, neutrino masses, and dark matter. The theory can also be theoretically unsatisfying as a result of parameters that go unexplained, such as the relatively low value of the Higgs mass despite its large quantum corrections, implying a lack of understanding. For this reason, in addition to precision measurements of standard model observables, experiments search for new physics beyond the standard model that could explain some of the shortcomings of the standard model. A selection of results for searches for new physics beyond the standard model using data recorded by three experiments on the LHC are presented in this talk. Comment: 7 pages, 20 figures. Contribution to the proceedings of the first African Conference on Fundamental Physics and Applications 2018, Namibia.
