SUMMARY:"Top quarks & beyond at the Large Hadron Collider"
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Louise Skinnari\, Cornell University\nHosted by: Tuli
	ka Bose\nPoster: http://physics.bu.edu/internal//files/download/Louise-Skin
	nari-Poster.pdf\n\nPart of the HEE Seminar Series.\n\nThe first run of the 
	Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been a great success\, most notably with th
	e discovery of the Higgs boson. Despite the continued triumph of the Standa
	rd Model\, critical questions remain unanswered about how nature works on s
	mall scales. As the most massive of all known elementary particles\, the to
	p quark plays a central role in many proposed extensions to the Standard Mo
	del that address some of these questions. A precise understanding of top qu
	arks and their production and properties is therefore critical. In this tal
	k\, I will discuss the motivation and status of top quark physics at the LH
	C\, presenting recent results from the CMS experiment. Additionally\, I wil
	l give an outlook to the future upgrade of the LHC to higher luminosities (
	HL-LHC)\, and its resulting potential and challenges for the CMS experiment
	.
