SUMMARY:Colliders and Cosmic Origin Stories - Jesse Liu (University of Cam
 bridge)

DESCRIPTION:The foundational origins of diverse cosmic phenomena remain en
 during enigmas. The LHC decisively tests longstanding cosmological origin 
 hypotheses for dark matter such as supersymmetry\, and mass genesis via th
 e Higgs mechanism. Colliders are also crucial for unveiling the astrophysi
 cal origins of high-energy cosmic rays striking Earth’s atmosphere. Inde
 ed cosmic-ray muons are the archetypal ‘who ordered that?’ surprise an
 d fittingly\, recent muon measurements could be challenging standard parad
 igms again. The ATLAS experiment confronts these puzzles while pioneering 
 innovations including photon collisions\, forward detectors\, heavy-ion be
 ams\, and unconventional datasets. Beyond colliders\, quantum sensing prog
 ress enables next-generation haloscopes to illuminate axion-like origins o
 f dark matter above microwave frequencies. These advances in fundamental p
 hysics may find vibrant interdisciplinary applications as far as the origi
 n of life in the cosmos.
