Yesterday I had a brief chat with Faculti about a paper I wrote with some collaborators last year.
In the paper, we were looking at what collider data (specifically from the Large Hadron Collider) could tell us about a relatively-little-studied class of Dark Matter models. But the chat itself turned into a sort of mini-manifesto about how I think we should be doing physics with the data we will take at CERN over the next few years.
Here’s a link to the video.

I hope its understandable and convincing, even if (and that’s the point really) you aren’t particularly interested in these particular models. (Although I don’t see why you wouldn’t be.)
