Excessive Higgs pair production with little MET from squarks and gluinos in the NMSSM

Ulrich Ellwanger, Ana M. Teixeira

In the presence of a light singlino-like LSP in the NMSSM, the missing transverse energy - MET - signature of squark/gluino production can be considerably reduced. Instead, a pair…

3.55 keV line in Minimal Decaying Dark Matter scenarios

Giorgio Arcadi, Laura Covi, Federico Dradi

We investigate the possibility of reproducing the recently reported $3.55\,\mbox{keV}$ line in some simple decaying dark matter scenarios. In all cases a keV scale decaying DM is c…

Indirect searches for sterile neutrinos at a high-luminosity Z-factory

A. Abada, V. De Romeri, S. Monteil +2

A future high-luminosity -factory will offer the possibility to study rare decays, as those leading to lepton flavour violating final states. Processes such as $Z \to \ell_1…

Generalized Parton Distributions and Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering

Marie Boër, Michel Guidal

We present a method which allows to extract theoretical informations out of a limited set of experimental data and observables, forming up in general an under- constrained system.…

Monochromatic neutrinos generated by dark matter and the see-saw mechanism

Emilian Dudas, Yann Mambrini, Keith Olive

We study a minimal extension of the Standard Model where a scalar field is coupled to the right handed neutrino responsible for the see-saw mechanism for neutrino masses. In the ab…

Current conservation in electrodisintegration of a bound system in the Bethe-Salpeter approach

V. A. Karmanov, J. Carbonell

Using our solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation with OBE kernel in Minkowski space both for the bound and scattering states, we calculate the transition form factors for electro…

Hidden charm and bottom molecular states

F. -K. Guo, C. Hidalgo-Duque, J. Nieves +2

We investigate heavy quark symmetries for heavy light meson-antimeson systems in a contact-range effective field theory. In the SU(3) light flavor limit, the leading order Lagrangi…

Photon-Jet cross sections in Deep-Inelastic Scattering

P. Aurenche, M. Fontannaz

We present the complete next-to-leading order calculation of isolated prompt photon production in association with a jet in deep-inelastic scattering. The calculation involves, dir…

Z-portal dark matter

Giorgio Arcadi, Yann Mambrini, Francois Richard

We propose to generalize the extensions of the Standard Model where the boson serves as a mediator between the Standard Model sector and the dark sector . We show that, like…

Effect of Degenerate Particles on Internal Bremsstrahlung of Majorana Dark Matter

Hiroshi Okada, Takashi Toma

Gamma-rays induced by annihilation or decay of dark matter can be its smoking gun signature. In particular, gamma-rays generated by internal bremsstrahlung of Majorana and real sca…

Model-independent precision constraints on dimension-6 operators

Adam Falkowski, Francesco Riva

We discuss electroweak precision constraints on dimension-6 operators in the effective theory beyond the standard model. We identify the combinations of these operators that are co…

Of Contact Interactions and Colliders

Sacha Davidson, Sebastien Descotes-Genon, Patrice Verdier

The hierarchy of scales which would allow dimension-six contact interactions to parametrise New Physics may not be verified at colliders. Instead, we explore the feasability and us…

J/psi-Pair Production at Large Momenta: Indications for Double-Parton Scatterings and Large alpha_s^5 Contributions

Jean-Philippe Lansberg, Hua-Sheng Shao

We demonstrate that the recent studies of J/psi-pair production by CMS at the LHC and by D0 at the Tevatron reveal the presence of different production mechanisms in different kine…

Supersymmetric Custodial Higgs Triplets and the Breaking of Universality

Mateo Garcia-Pepin, Stefania Gori, Mariano Quiros +3

Higgs triplet models are known to have difficulties obtaining agreement with electroweak precision data and in particular constraints on the parameter. Either a global $SU(2)_L…

Solving Bethe-Salpeter scattering state equation in Minkowski space

J. Carbonell, V. A. Karmanov

We present a method to directly solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation in Minkowski space, both for bound and scattering states. It is based on a proper treatment of the singularities…

On a boundary-localized Higgs boson in 5D theories

Roberto Barceló, Subhadip Mitra, Grégory Moreau

In the context of a simple five-dimensional (5D) model with bulk matter coupled to a brane-localized Higgs boson, we point out a new non-commutativity in the 4D calculation of the…

Violation of energy-momentum conservation in Mueller-Navelet jets production

B. Ducloué, L. Szymanowski, S. Wallon

We study effects related to violation of energy-momentum conservation inherent to the BFKL approach, in the particular case of Mueller-Navelet jets production. We argue, based on t…

Confronting BFKL dynamics with experimental studies of Mueller-Navelet jets at the LHC

B. Ducloué, L. Szymanowski, S. Wallon

The study of the production of Mueller-Navelet jets at hadron colliders, characterized as two forward jets separated by a large interval of rapidity, is known to be one of the best…

NMSSM with a singlino LSP: possible challenges for searches for supersymmetry at the LHC

Ulrich Ellwanger, Ana M. Teixeira

A light singlino in the NMSSM can reduce considerably the missing transverse energy at the end of sparticle decay cascades; instead, light NMSSM-specific Higgs bosons can be produc…

Sébastien Descotes-Genon, Lars Hofer, Joaquim Matias +1

The recent LHCb angular analysis of the exclusive decay B->K^*mu+mu- has indicated significant deviations from the Standard Model expectations. Accurate predictions can be achieved…
