THE WIMP PARADIGM • The WIMP paradigm postulates that particles that help explain the weak scale are the dark matter. It is the glue that joins together much of the high energy and cosmic frontiers. • The Rise of the WIMP Paradigm • Recent Experimental Progress • Recent Theoretical Progress 23 Mar 11 Feng 2
THE COSMIC CONNECTION, c. 1977 “Over 500 scientists from around the world are expected to attend a conference at Fermilab Oct. 20-22, 1977. For the first time, physicists working in two frontier areas of science – particle physics and cosmology – will unite to explore the relationship of the universe to inner space of the atom.” – The Village Crier 23 Mar 11 Feng 3
