Searching for exotic scalars at fusion reactors
Chaja Baruch, Patrick J. Fitzpatrick, Tony Menzo +3
The energy created in deuterium-tritium fusion reactors originates from a high-intensity neutron flux interacting with the reactor's inner walls. The neutron flux can also be used…
Dark Matter Through the Axion-Gluon Portal
Patrick J. Fitzpatrick, Yonit Hochberg, Eric Kuflik +2
Axion-like-particles are a well-motivated extension of the Standard Model that can mediate interactions between the dark matter and ordinary matter. Here we consider an axion porta…
New Thermal Relic Targets for Inelastic Vector-Portal Dark Matter
Patrick J. Fitzpatrick, Hongwan Liu, Tracy R. Slatyer +1
We examine the vector-portal inelastic dark matter (DM) model with DM mass and dark photon mass , in the `forbidden dark matter' regime where $1 \lesssim m_{A'}/m_χ\l…
New Pathways to the Relic Abundance of Vector-Portal Dark Matter
Patrick J. Fitzpatrick, Hongwan Liu, Tracy R. Slatyer +1
We fully explore the thermal freezeout histories of a vector-portal dark matter model, in the region of parameter space in which the ratio of masses of the dark photon …
Capture and Decay of Electroweak WIMPonium
Pouya Asadi, Matthew Baumgart, Patrick J. Fitzpatrick +2
The spectrum of Weakly-Interacting-Massive-Particle (WIMP) dark matter generically possesses bound states when the WIMP mass becomes sufficiently large relative to the mass of the…
