2 Outline Why BSM physics? Why BSM physics? BSM physics in the theory group BSM physics in the theory group Overview of work from the group Overview of work from the group Supersymmetry Supersymmetry Extra Dimensions and String Theory Extra Dimensions and String Theory Cosmology Cosmology Extended Higgs and Gauge Sectors Extended Higgs and Gauge Sectors Little Higgs Little Higgs

3 Why BSM Physics? SM describes SM describes experimental data experimental data to extreme precision to extreme precision It leaves important It leaves important questions unanswered questions unanswered

4 Why BSM Physics? Some open questions Some open questions Electroweak Symmetry Breaking Electroweak Symmetry Breaking Hierarchies in Nature Hierarchies in Nature New particles? New particles? Unification and Quantum gravity Unification and Quantum gravity Good BSM theories: Good BSM theories: Answer some of these questions Answer some of these questions Are compatible with current experiments Are compatible with current experiments Have phenomenological implications at present/future colliders Have phenomenological implications at present/future colliders
