Electric dipole moments are sensitive to CP violation in physics beyond the standard model, since they are accidentally suppressed in the standard model. In this talk, I will review the current experimental bounds on EDMs, theoretical evaluation of the EDMs, first. I will also discuss the sensitivities to physics around and above TeV scale.

The discovery of the top quark in 1995 has been one of the great successes of the CDF and D0 experiments at the Tevatron collider.
Since then, both collaborations have measured the properties of the
top quark in many channels and using different methods.
The importance of measuring its mass lies in the possibility
of verifying the predictions and the consistency of the Standard Model as...

A review of the main recent results on top quark production from the ATLAS and CMS experiments is presented. Results on both electroweak single top quark production and strong top pair production are presented.

The latest results on the measurements of electroweak top-quark production at the Tevatron are presented with the full RunII dataset. The CDF and D0 Collaborations have performed measurements of the s-channel, t-channel and s+t cross sections in both l+jets and MET+jets final states and have extracted the CMK matrix element |Vtb|.

The Planck collaboration released last year CMB temperature anisotropies observations from data taken during the nominal duration of the mission.
From high resolution sky maps in 9 frequency bands, we derived constraints on parameters of the Lambda-CMD model and its extensions. This talk will give an overview of the main results presented, and prospects for improvements with the 2014 Planck...

This short presentation was prepared on the spot to introduce to the audience the recent results from Bicep2, which were made public 2 days before this talk and in which the author has had no part (and hence should not get credit from !), and their context.

Supersymmetric scenarios where the lightest superparticle (LSP) is the gravitino are an attractive alternative to the widely studied case of a neutralino LSP. A strong motivation for a gravitino LSP arises from the possibility of achieving higher reheating temperatures and thus potentially allow for thermal leptogenesis. The predictions for the primordial abundances of light elements in the...

We explain how ATLAS & CMS data constrain the fundamental parameters of quantum Einstein gravity with extra dimensions. We exploit constraints from unitarity and make predictions for gravitational Drell-Yan production, graviton emission, and mini-black hole production. When combined with LHC data, our findings lead to new bounds on the fundamental Planck scale, which are weakener than those...
