The Emergence of Electroweak Skyrmions through Higgs Bosons
Juan Carlos Criado, Valentin V. Khoze, Michael Spannowsky
Skyrmions are extended field configurations, initially proposed to describe baryons as topological solitons in an effective field theory of mesons. We investigate and confirm the e…
Dark matter of any spin -- an effective field theory and applications
Juan Carlos Criado, Niko Koivunen, Martti Raidal +1
We develop an effective field theory of a generic massive particle of any spin and, as an example, apply this to study higher-spin dark matter (DM). Our formalism does not introduc…
BSM Benchmarks for Effective Field Theories in Higgs and Electroweak Physics
D. Marzocca, F. Riva, J. Criado +9
Effective Field Theories (EFTs) capture effects from heavy dynamics at low energy and represent an essential ingredient in the context of Standard Model (SM) precision tests. This…
Implications of Milky Way Substructures for the Nature of Dark Matter
María Benito, Juan Carlos Criado, Gert Hütsi +2
We study how the indirect observation of dark matter substructures in the Milky Way, using recent stellar stream studies, translates into constraints for different dark matter mode…
