HERA HAS BEEN CLOSED,LHC IS BEING OPENING(NEAR PAST AND NEAR FUTURE OF PARTICLE PHYSICS) Carlos García Canal Universidad Nacional de La Plata II LAWHEP
PARTICLE PHYSICS: NEAR PAST AND NEAR FUTURE . GENERAL ACCOUNT ON THE EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS OF THE RECENTLY CLOSED DESY-HAMBURG HERA ACCELERATOR. . PRESENTATION OF THE PHYSICS EXPECTED TO BE REVEALED BY THE LHC-CERN ACCELERATOR BEGINNING TO DELIVER DATA IN LESS THAN A YEAR. . ANALYSIS OF THE IMPACT OF THIS INFORMATION ON THE THEORETICAL DEVELOPMENTS.
PARTICLE PHYSICS 29.300 FROM M. MANGANO
ON JUNE 30, 2007, DATA TAKING AT THE ELECTRON-PROTON STORAGE RING HERA AT DESY WILL COME TO AN END: FOR 15 YEARS THE PARTICLE PHYSICS EXPERIMENTS AT HERA HAVE PROVIDED A UNIQUE AND DETAILED PICTURE OF THE PROTON AND THE INTERACTING FORCESSAID PROF. ROLF-DIETER HEUER, RESEARCH DIRECTOR AT DESY GENEVA, 22 JUNE 2007: SPEAKING AT THE 142nd SESSION OF THE CERN COUNCIL TODAY, THE ORGANIZATION´S DIRECTOR GENERAL ROBERT AYMAR ANNOUNCED THAT THE LARGE HADRON COLLIDER (LHC) WILL START UP IN MAY 2008, TAKING THE FIRST STEPS TOWARDS STUDYING PHYSICS AT A NEW HIGH-ENERGY FRONTIER
TODAY – PHYSICS - TODAY FUNDAMENTAL SYMMETRIES
EINSTEIN 1905: SPECIAL THEORY OF RELATIVITY WIGNER DIXIT: EINSTEIN´S WORK MARKS THE INVERSION OF A TENDENCY, FORMERLY THE INVARIANCE PRINCIPLES WERE OBTAINED FROM THE LAWS OF MOVEMENT. NOW IT IS NATURAL FOR US TO OBTAIN THE LAWS OF NATURE AND PROVE THEIR VALIDITY BY MEANS OF THE INVARIANCE LAWS.
GAUGE SYMMETRY ENGINE OF THE PRESENT DEVELOPMENT OF PHYSICS UNIFICATION OF THE FUNDAMENTAL FORCES
STANDARD MODEL ´T HOOFT DIXIT: “TEMPORARY SOLUTION TO NEARLY A CENTURY OF QUESTIONS”
GAUGE FIELD THEORY (QCD) (EW) + MECANISMO DE HIGGS . ONE OF THE GREATEST SUCCESS OF PHYSICS . COMPRISES PRACTICALLY ALL THAT IS KNOWN OF THE SUBATOMIC WORLD IN A CONCISE SET OF PRINCIPLES AND EQUATIONS. . EXCEEDED EXPERIMENTAL TESTS IN ENERGY RANGES VERY DISTANT FROM THE ONES INCLUDED IN ITS ORIGINAL DESIGN

PROTON COLLIDER (TEVATRON) SYNCHROTRON RADIATION NOT IMPORTANT CROSS SECTION LARGE MANY EVENTS PROTON HAS COMPONENTS (COLLISION AMONG COMPONENTS SHARING THE PROTON MOMENTUM) Ex: DISTRIBUTION FUNCTION PARTON-PARTON CROSS SECTION MOMENTUM FRACTION
TEVATRON • ACCESS TO THE PHYSICS OF THE STANDARD MODEL • B PHYSICS • QCD • ELECTROWEAK • HIGGS SEARCH • W MASS WITH GREATER PRECISION • PRODUCTION OF WW AND WZ PAIRS • QCD WITH PHOTONS • JETS • PHYSICS OF THE TOP • CP VIOLATION IN B • CABBIBO-KOBAYASHI-MASKAWA MATRIX
ELECTRON AND PROTON COLLIDERS COMPLEMENTARY PROVIDE “CLEAN” EXPERIMENTS (STANDARD MODEL) (PRECISION) PROVIDE ENOUGH ENERGY FOR DISCOVERIES (POTENTIALITY)
