Properties and Interactions of Elementary Particles

Task A: The ATLAS group reports on the search for the light Higgs boson (and finding it!),as well as the study of multiple vector boson production, lambda polarization and SUSY searches in the 7-8 TeV p-p collisions at the LHC. 2Task C: The CDF group reports results on two Tevtron anomalies: a large, mass-dependent forward-backward asymmetry in tt production and a bb resonance, consistent with a SUSY Higgs particle, produced in association with another b. 7Task K: The D0 group completed the search for the Higgs boson in the WH and ZH final states, the measurement of the weak-mixing angle 2 using the / * asymmetry, and a search for gauge mediated SUSY in Zγ + missing energy events. 12 Intensity FrontierTask C: The K0TO group describes progress toward measurement of 0 L K π νν → at experiment E14 at J-PARC, including critical contributions to the design and construction of the trigger, data acquisition, and veto systems for the CsI crystal array. 16 Cosmic FrontierTask I: The Dark Energy group reports on preparations for the systematic study of dark energy at the DES telescope, progress on NIR detector development, and preparations for the next generation of dark energy measurements at BigBoss. 21 TheoryTask G: The High Energy Theory group reports on a broad program of investigations in the areas of particle phenomenology in the LHC era, particle cosmology in the era of direct and indirect detection of dark matter, and both foundational and phenomenological approaches to string theory.
