The Large Hadron Collider, a proton-proton collider located in Geneva, Switzerland, has finally commenced operation, thus opening the way towards the first new laboratory-based energy frontier since the commissioning of the Tevatron in mid-1980’s. Precision low-energy measurements, cosmological data, and theoretical considerations all suggest that the "Terascale" energies it will probe should contain new physics beyond the standard model. In this talk, Professor Eno will discuss studies of the new data from the LHC.
