The existence of the Higgs boson was postulated more than 50 years ago, without any indication of its mass. The quest that followed, with several generations of particle physics experiments, culminated with the recent discovery of a new particle with a ...

These lectures review the background to Higgs physics, its current status following the discovery of a/the Higgs boson at the LHC, models of Higgs physics beyond the Standard Model and prospects for Higgs studies in future runs of the LHC and at possible

The cause of the screening of the weak interactions at long distances puzzled the high-energy community for more nearly half a century. With the discovery of the Higgs boson a new era started with direct experimental information on the physics behind the

Higgs physics confronts the MW anomaly
The recent high-precision measurement of the W mass by the CDF collaboration is in sharp tension with the Standard Model prediction as obtained by the electroweak fit. If confirmed, this finding can only be explained in terms of new physics effects.

Unitarity and predictiveness in new Higgs inflation
In new Higgs inflation the Higgs kinetic terms are non-minimally coupled to the Einstein tensor, allowing the Higgs field to play the role of the inflaton.

Steven Weinberg and Higgs physics
As a tribute to Steven Weinberg, we summarize the immense impact that he had on the understanding of the mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking and on the physics of the Higgs boson.

The implications of the discovery of a scalar Higgs boson at the LHC with a mass of approximately 125 GeV are summarised in the context of the Standard Model of particle physics with its unique scalar boson and of its most celebrated new physics extension, the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model or MSSM, in which the Higgs sector is extended to ...

Deuteron uncertainties in the determination of proton PDFs
We evaluate the uncertainties due to nuclear effects in global fits of proton parton distribution functions (PDFs) that utilise deep-inelastic scattering and Drell–Yan data on deuterium targets.

Quantum corrections to the primordial tensor spectrum: open EFTs & Markovian decoupling of UV modes
Perturbative quantum corrections to primordial power spectra are important for testing the robustness and the regime of validity of inflation as an effective field theory.
