伽玛大讲堂（第11期）： Science and Status of CEPC

报告人介绍：

阮曼奇，研究员，博导，中国科学院高能物理研究所。研究领域：粒子物理、Higgs粒子性质的精确测量、正负电子Higgs工厂上的物理及探测器研究。

Being a researcher at the Institute of High Energy Physics, Chinese Academy of Science, I focus on the physics and detector studies for the Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC), a proposed gigantic future Higgs/Z factory. I am responsible for the CEPC physics potential analysis, the detector design - optimization, and the reconstruction algorithm/software development.

报告摘要：

Being the heart of the Standard Model of Particle Physics, the Higgs field is deeply associated with many of the profound mysteries, including the origin of mass, the origin of matter, and the nature of dark matter.

An electron positron Higgs factory that could precisely measure the property of Higgs boson is therefore regarded as the focus, and even the top priority for the future exploration of Particle Physics.

The Circular Electron Positron Collider, proposed right after the Higgs discovery, is one of these electron positron Higgs factories. In the latest design, it is expected to deliver 4 Million Higgs bosons, hundreds of Millions of W bosons, 4 Tera Z bosons, and potentially also 1 Million top quarks in an extremely clean collision environment.

For the mankind, the CEPC could well be the gateway towards the propound physics principles underneath the Standard Model.

This talk will briefly introduce the major scientific objectives, as well as the current status, of the CEPC project, together with alternative future Higgs factories.
