In Search of New Physics at the Frontiers. Final Report

This is the final scientific report for the DOE grant ^In Search of New Physics at the Frontiers from Prof. Brian Batell at the University of Pittsburgh. Over the course of the grant period Batell and his research group made a number of significant contributions to some of the open problems in theoretical high energy physics. Specific areas under study included novel dark sector and neutrino dynamics, connections between neutrinos and dark matter, and new phenomenological and theoretical approaches to the Higgs boson and electroweak symmetry breaking. This report provides a summary of the research conducted and results obtained during the 23 month funding period from May 1, 2016 - March 31, 2018.
