Plenary talk in Conference

18‒19 Oct. 2016 Search for New Physics through the Higgs Boson (invited talk) “BSM at Colliders”

My first plenary talk. I was originally invited to South Korea by Seong Chan to give a lecture on collider simulation, but right before the trip I was told to be allocated as a plenary speaker. It was surely the greatest honor, but also the preparation was really tough; in fact, the last 20% of this talk was written after the first day…

Conference contributions and Seminar talks

On cosmology of SUSY without R-parity

20 Feb. 2010 KEK-PH 2010 “Cosmological Constraints on R-Parity violating SUSY under Lepton Flavor Violation”

My first conference talk given in KEK-PH 2010. I clearly remember that I asked my supervisor not to be in the conference room....

8 Aug. 2010 YONUPA Summer School 2010 “Phenomenology of R-Parity violating SUSY” (in Japanese)

As the main audiences are master course students, I started from very basic review of the R-parity violating SUSY.

4 Oct. 2010 2nd Bethe Center Workshop “Cosmological Constraints on R-Parity violating SUSY”

The talk I did abroad for the first time. The theme is the same as the KEK-PH talk, but I was really nervous and spoke too fast.

On Tevatron top forward-backward asymmetry

13 Aug. 2011 SI2011 (phenomenology) [poster] “Top Forward–Backward Asymmetry and Di-jet Cross Section in LHC”

In poster session. I talked the Tevatron anomaly along with my ongoing work. The poster session was for 2 hours and I’d got exhausted…

On kink-signature at the LHC

20 Aug. 2011 YONUPA Summer School 2011 “Long-lived Stau might be Detected in the LHC” (in Japanese)

A talk for master course students. I will talk about basic part (i.e. essential part) of my work. Since the slot was only 10 min., I just introduced the ATLAS detector in the LHC and explained that the stau might be long-lived. It seemed well-done, as the audience looked enjoying my talk.

7‒8 Sep. 2011 IPMU–YITP School on Monte Carlo Tools for LHC [poster] “In-flight-decay of Stau in the LHC Tracker”

In poster session. Professional version of the previous YONUPA talk introducing my KINK paper. As prepared for a school on Monte Carlo Tools, this poster is oriented to experimentalists and phenomenology-researchers, and a section is devoted to the Monte Carlo system used in the analysis. (Please overlook a fault in the title…)

16 Jan. 2012 University of Bonn (seminar) “Long-lived Stau signature in the LHC”

I was given an opportunity to have a seminar in Bonn University. It was (unluckily?) my very first seminar; quite difficult was it to pick up what I should tell in a 60 min. talk! I am afraid it was rather too basic, especially for the people in the group… Anyway it was good at least that I can believe they understand the contents.

30 Jan. 2012 DESY (seminar) “Long-lived Stau signature in the LHC”

On the journey in Deutschland as well as the previous seminar; at DESY. The audience seemed to be enjoying my seminar; perhaps what is important in a seminar is "余裕" or inner reserves of strength. Kindly Dr. Masano gave me a comment after the seminar.

27 Feb. 2012 KEK-PH 2012 “Long-lived stau kink signature at the LHC”

The same topic as the previous talks, but here I changed the whole story so that the audience should figure it out easily in a (only!) 15 min. talk. It is very very difficult for me to give a talk in 15 min.; I always lose the inner reserves of strength and speak too fast.... A researcher in the ATLAS collaboration gave me a question, which made me happy. :)

On MSSM + vector-like quarks to get 126GeV Higgs

18 Feb. 2012 Physics opportunities with LHC at 7 TeV “Muon g−2 anomaly & 125 GeV Higgs : Extra vector-like quark & LHC prospects”

I was nervous because this talk was the last talk in the conference and I expected a tired audience. However an eye-catch really clicked them, and I can talk with relaxing. It also gave me reservation that I was given 30 minutes for the talk. It was successful; many came to me to give questions after the talk, and one even gave me the words "I liked your talk!"

20 Feb. 2012 Winter Toyama 2012, phenomenology & cosmology workshop “Higgs Mass and Muon g−2 in Supersymmetric Models with Vector-Like Matters”

Two days after the previous talk I did the same talk at Toyama. This was for 25 min., 5 min shorter than the previous one. I was not relaxing because the co-authors (including my supervisor!!) sat on the audience seat…! I should have practiced more for the 5 minutes difference…

9 Mar. 2012 Sapporo Winter School 2012 “g−2 and 125 GeV Higgs” (in Japanese)

This is a school on neutrinos, and all the speakers but I gave talks about neutrinos; I was aggressive (or empty-headed) enough to have a talk about the Higgs boson, the muon and the SUSY. Also it astonished me that this short talk is for 60 min.! I realized this fact at the dormitory of KEK during KEK-PH conference, and got panicked. Anyway, perhaps as the common language was Japanese, I could finish the talk peacefully… Surely it was somewhat in the wrong place, but a professor kindly gave me the comment that he did not know we have 3.3 sigma discrepancy on the muon g-2, which gave me a relief.

15 Mar. 2012 GUT2012 “Muon g−2 anomaly & 125 GeV Higgs : Extra vector-like quark & LHC prospects”

The last talk among the 8 talks I gave during these 3 months. …Congrats! I’ve done the all! As the conference focused on the GUTs, the audiences were residents in 10¹⁶ GeV, while my talk sat around 1000 GeV. So I rearranged and simplified the slides carefully so that the audiences who was not familiar with such energy-scale physics can understand my talk clearly (and to reduce more 5 min.; it was 20 min. talk). It was my 4th talk about this topic; so I was rather relaxed. I thought, as the message and the story was rather simplified and enough attentions were directed, it was a better talk.

19 Apr. 2012 Niigata U. and U. Toyama (seminar) “125 GeV, SUSY, tension between them” (in Japanese)

6 Aug. 2012 YONUPA Summer School 2012 “MSSM with Vector-like Quarks can explain 126 GeV Higgs” (in Japanese)

A talk for master course students about the model with the vector-ike matters. I had to present vast knowledge in the introduction for the beginners, and I realy feel it was tough… As the most basic talk about this model, the presentation material would be instructive (but it is written in Japanese).
