DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Amit Bhoonah (University of Pittsburgh)\n\nAbstract:
  Proton decay experiments typically constrain baryon number violation to t
 he scale of grand unified theories. From a phenomenological point of view\
 , this makes direct probing of the associated new resonances impossible. I
 t has\, however\, been known that certain specific patterns of baryon and 
 lepton number violation can suppress proton decay by multiple powers of th
 e masses of the heavy resonances involved\, opening the possibility that t
 he observed limits on the proton lifetime are consistent with baryon numbe
 r violating physics at energy scales much lower than that of grand unifica
 tion. In this talk\, I will show that theories which violate baryon number
  by one unit\, ΔB=−1\, and lepton number by three units\, ΔL=−3\, de
 spite stringent limits on the predicted p→ e+/μ+ν ν mode from the Sup
 er-Kamiokande experiment\, are consistent with BNV at the TeV scale. Using
  a representative model\, I will also show that realistic proton lifetimes
  for ΔB=−1 and ΔL=−3 are some 10 orders of magnitude beyond upcoming
  proton decay experiments like Hyper-Kamiokande. However\, ΔB=−1 and Δ
 L=−3 theories offer unique signatures of baryon number violation that ca
 n be probed both with currently available LHC data and with the upcoming H
 igh-Luminosity LHC\, making the LHC a much more powerful probe of this par
 ticular pattern of B and L violation compared to proton decay experiments.
  Biography：Dr. Amit Bhoonah is a postdoctoral fellow at the University 
 of Pittsburgh. He earned his PhD at Queen's University. After completing a
  postdoc at Colorado State University\, he moved to the University of Pitt
 sburgh. This fall\, he will be moving to Jeonbuk National University in So
 uth Korea. His research focuses on astrophysical probes of dark matter\, p
 articularly gas clouds in the galactic center\; high-precision atomic spec
 troscopy for dark matter detection\; neutrino mass model building\; and lo
 w-scale baryon and lepton number violation.Alternatively online link : htt
