Talk Title: 
Revealing Randall-Sundrum hidden valleys
Tea Time: 
3:15 pm
Tea Location: 
Bausch & Lomb 271
Description: 

Hidden Valley models, in which light hidden sector fields are accessible in collider experiments only through high-scale dynamics, are of particular interest to both theorists and experimentalists in the LHC era, and models which utilize the Randall-Sundrum (RS) geometry for obtaining natural electroweak symmetry breaking abound in the literature.  In this talk, I will make the case that such RS models can generically produce the collider features of Hidden Valley models, and present a model in which a RS hidden sector is responsible for solving the strong-CP problem.
