    • Finding dark matter at the Large Hadron Collider

      18 August, 2015

      In this fascinating talk theoretical physicist Ben Allanach talks about the search for dark matter at the Large Hadron Collider, including a generous helping of information on the Higgs boson. Ben gave the talk on 19 June 2015 to an audience of school students aged 16-17 as part of a mathematics enrichment event at the University of Cambridge.

      If you prefer read, the see the abridged version of this talk.
