Takahiro Tanaka gives a talk at Bubbles in the Sky workshop.

Jesse Thaler describes a new jet shape, N-subjettiness, designed to tag boosted hadronically-decaying objects and reject the background of QCD jets with large invariant mass.

David Poland derives general bounds on operator dimensions, central charges, and OPE coefficients in 4D conformal and N=1 superconformal field theories.

Josh Ruderman talks about Tevatron limits and LHC discovery potential for a wide class of GMSB scenarios in which the next-to-lightest superpartner (NLSP) is a promptly-decaying neutralino.

Liam Fitzpatrick develops the idea of an effective conformal theory describing the low-lying spectrum of the dilatation operator in a CFT.

Mike Dine talks about generalizing gaugino condensation and constructing large classes of models which are classically scale invariant and which spontaneously break discrete R symmetries (but not supersymmetry).

Ryuichiro Kitano considers a supersymmetric QCD with soft supersymmetry breaking terms as the dynamics for the electroweak symmetry breaking.

Howie Haber discusses that by examining the monojet signature at a high luminosity LHC, we can estimate the precision with which supersymmetric coupling relations can be experimentally established.
