Inelastic Boosted Dark Matter at Direct Detection Experiments

Gian F. Giudice, Doojin Kim, Jong-Chul Park +1

We explore a novel class of multi-particle dark sectors, called Inelastic Boosted Dark Matter (iBDM). These models are constructed by combining properties of particles that scatter…

Mass shift of charmonium states in collision

Gy. Wolf, G. Balassa, P. Kovács +2

The masses of the low lying charmonium states, namely, the , , and are shifted downwards due to the second order Stark effect. In colli…

Probing Leptogenesis

E. J. Chun, G. Cvetič, P. S. B. Dev +12

The focus of this chapter lies on the possible experimental tests of leptogenesis scenarios. We consider both leptogenesis generated from oscillations, as well as leptogenesis from…

Probing new intra-atomic force with isotope shifts

Kyoko Mikami, Minoru Tanaka, Yasuhiro Yamamoto

In the development of atomic clocks, some atomic transition frequencies are measured with remarkable precision. These measured spectra may include effects of a new force mediated b…

Discovering intermediate mass sterile neutrinos through (or ) decay

C. S. Kim, G. López Castro, Dibyakrupa Sahoo

Distinguishing the Dirac and Majorana nature of neutrinos remains one of the most important tasks in neutrino physics. By assuming that the (or ) dec…

Prediction of the asymmetry in decay

Dibyakrupa Sahoo, Hai-Yang Cheng, Cheng-Wei Chiang +2

Of all decays, the decay has the smallest observed branching ratio as it takes place primarily via the suppressed -exchange d…

Atomki anomaly and the Secluded Dark Sector

Yasuhiro Yamamoto

The Atomiki anomaly can be interpreted as a new light vector boson. If such a new particle exists, it could be a mediator between the Standard Model sector and the dark sector incl…

Clockwork seesaw mechanisms

Seong Chan Park, Chang Sub Shin

We propose new mechanisms for small neutrino masses based on clockwork mechanism. The Standard Model neutrinos and lepton number violating operators communicate through the zero mo…

Heptaquarks with two heavy antiquarks in a simple chromomagnetic model

Aaron Park, Woosung Park, Su Houng Lee

We investigate the symmetry property and the stability of the heptaquark containing two identical heavy antiquarks using color-spin interaction. We construct the wave function of t…

Constraining Sterile Neutrinos from Precision Higgs Data

Arindam Das, P. S. Bhupal Dev, C. S. Kim

We use the LHC Higgs data to derive updated constraints on electroweak-scale sterile neutrinos that naturally occur in many low-scale seesaw extensions of the Standard Model to exp…

Anomalies in (semi)-leptonic decays , and , and possible resolution with sterile neutrino

G. Cvetič, Francis Halzen, C. S. Kim +1

The universality of the weak interactions can be tested in semileptonic transitions, and in particular in the ratios $R(D^{(*)}) \equiv Γ(B \rightarrow D^{(*)} τν)/Γ(B \r…
