THE GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY Department of Physics Colloquium Resolving New Physics with Theoretical Study of QCD and Hadron Structure Mikhail Gorshteyn University of Mainz Light muonic atoms @ PSI Standard Model of particle physics has been overwhelmingly successful in describing phenomena in nuclear and particle physics. However, there are strong indications that Standard Model is incomplete, and searches for New Physics embrace astrophysics, collider experiments and precision tests at low energies. The latter field consists in very precise measurements in atomic, nuclear, hadronic and neutrino physics and in comparing them to theoretical predictions from Standard Model. Targets and detectors in these low-energy experiments are made of protons and neutrons whose structure is described by Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the theory of strong interactions. Understanding it in detail is necessary for advancing our knowledge of Standard Model and providing theory support to low-energy searches. On the example of light muonic atoms, parity-violating electron scattering and processes involving neutrinos I review the joined effort embracing theory and phenomenology of strong interaction and searches for Standard Model extensions at low energy.
