Self-Destructing Dark Matter

Yuval Grossman, Roni Harnik, Ofri Telem +1

We present Self-Destructing Dark Matter (SDDM), a new class of dark matter models which are detectable in large neutrino detectors. In this class of models, a component of dark mat…

Neutrino vs. Antineutrino Oscillation Parameters at DUNE and Hyper-Kamiokande

André de Gouvêa, Kevin J. Kelly

Testing, in a non-trivial, model-independent way, the hypothesis that the three-massive-neutrinos paradigm properly describes nature is among the main goals of the current and the…

NuSTEC White Paper: Status and Challenges of Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering

L. Alvarez-Ruso, M. Sajjad Athar, M. B. Barbaro +22

The precise measurement of neutrino properties is among the highest priorities in fundamental particle physics, involving many experiments worldwide. Since the experiments rely on…

Dark Matter and Neutrino Mass from the Smallest Non-Abelian Chiral Dark Sector

Jeffrey M. Berryman, André de Gouvêa, Kevin J. Kelly +1

All pieces of concrete evidence for phenomena outside the standard model (SM) - neutrino masses and dark matter - are consistent with the existence of new degrees of freedom that i…

Testing Naturalness

Chuan-Ren Chen, Jan Hajer, Tao Liu +2

Solutions to the electroweak hierarchy problem typically introduce a new symmetry to stabilize the quadratic ultraviolet sensitivity in the self-energy of the Higgs boson. The new…

The spin-dependent quark beam function at NNLO

Radja Boughezal, Frank Petriello, Ulrich Schubert +1

We calculate the beam function for longitudinally-polarized quarks through next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in QCD perturbation theory. This is the last missing ingredient need…

The impact of the LHC Z-boson transverse momentum data on PDF determinations

Radja Boughezal, Alberto Guffanti, Frank Petriello +1

The LHC has recently released precise measurements of the transverse momentum distribution of the Z-boson that provide a unique constraint on the structure of the proton. Theoretic…

The transverse momentum distribution of hadrons within jets

Zhong-Bo Kang, Xiaohui Liu, Felix Ringer +1

We study the transverse momentum distribution of hadrons within jets, where the transverse momentum is defined with respect to the standard jet axis. We consider the case where the…

Precise predictions for V+jets dark matter backgrounds

J. M. Lindert, S. Pozzorini, R. Boughezal +16

High-energy jets recoiling against missing transverse energy (MET) are powerful probes of dark matter at the LHC. Searches based on large MET signatures require a precise control o…

Simplified Models for Displaced Dark Matter Signatures

Oliver Buchmueller, Albert De Roeck, Matthew McCullough +4

We propose a systematic programme to search for long-lived neutral particle signatures through a minimal set of displaced searches requiring significant missing transverse energy (…

Modification of Higgs Couplings in Minimal Composite Models

Da Liu, Ian Low, Carlos E. M. Wagner

We present a comprehensive study of the modifications of Higgs couplings in the SO(5)/SO(4) minimal composite model. We focus on three couplings of central importance to Higgs phen…

Quenching of vector boson-tagged jets at the LHC

Hongxi Xing

Electroweak boson-tagged jet measurements provide a promising experimental channel to accurately study the physics of jet production and propagation in dense QCD medium. In this ta…

A Reappraisal on Dark Matter Co-annihilating with a Top/Bottom Partner

Wai-Yee Keung, Ian Low, Yue Zhang

We revisit the calculation of relic density of dark matter particles co-annihilating with a top or bottom partner, by properly including the QCD bound-states (onia) effects of the…

A Cosmic Selection Rule for Glueball Dark Matter Relic Density

Amarjit Soni, Huangyu Xiao, Yue Zhang

We point out a unique mechanism to produce the relic abundance for glueball dark matter from a gauged hidden sector which is bridged to the standard model sector through…

Interpreting the 3 TeV Resonance as a boson

Kingman Cheung, Wai-Yee Keung, Chih-Ting Lu +1

Motivated by a local sigma resonance in and in the ATLAS Run 2 data, we attempt to interpret the excess in terms of a boson in a $SU(2)_1 \times SU(2)_2 \t…

Searches for new physics at the Hyper-Kamiokande experiment

Kevin J. Kelly

We investigate the ability of the upcoming Hyper-Kamiokande (Hyper-K) neutrino experiment to detect new physics phenomena beyond the standard, three-massive-neutrinos paradigm; nam…

Vector boson-tagged jet production in heavy ion collisions at the LHC

Zhong-Bo Kang, Ivan Vitev, Hongxi Xing

Vector boson-tagged jet production in collisions of heavy nuclei opens new opportunities to study parton shower formation and propagation in strongly interacting matter. It has bee…

production and polarization within a jet

Zhong-Bo Kang, Jian-Wei Qiu, Felix Ringer +2

We study the production and polarization of mesons within a jet in proton-proton collisions at the LHC. We define the -jet fragmentation function as a ratio of different…
