For Whom the Xenon Recoils: Magnetic Inelastic Dark Baryons
Pouya Asadi, Austin Batz, Patrick J. Fox +2
We develop a theory of a dark baryon dark matter candidate that interacts with nuclei dominantly through inelastic scattering mediated by a transition magnetic dipole operator. Mod…
Rich Phenomenology from Simple Ingredients: A Review of Confining Dark Sectors
Pouya Asadi, Austin Batz, Graham D. Kribs
We review theories with confining dark sectors and their implications for dark matter, cosmology, phenomenology, and unsolved Standard Model puzzles. Models with new strongly-coupl…
On the Run from the Dark Side of the Muon
Pouya Asadi, Austin Batz, Samuel Homiller +1
We present an analysis strategy for probing physics beyond the Standard Model via modifications to the parton distribution functions (PDFs) in a muon beam, which measurably alter t…
Enhanced Cosmic-Ray Antinuclei Fluxes with Dark Matter Annihilation into SUEPs
Mattia Di Mauro, Caleb Gemmell, Austin Batz +4
Standard-Model (SM) hadronic parton showers initiated by secondary cosmic-ray production or dark matter (DM) annihilations robustly predict very low antinuclei yields and a strong…
Stopping Dark Mesons in Their Tracks with Long-Lived Particle and Resonant Signatures
Pouya Asadi, Austin Batz, Elias Bernreuther +3
Dark sectors with confining gauge interactions can provide both simple dark matter candidates and striking signals at colliders. We recast Large Hadron Collider searches for two di…
MATHUSLA: An External Long-Lived Particle Detector to Maximize the Discovery Potential of the HL-LHC
Branden Aitken, Cristiano Alpigiani, Juan Carlos Arteaga-Velázquez +70
We present the current status of the MATHUSLA (MAssive Timing Hodoscope for Ultra-Stable neutraL pArticles) long-lived particle (LLP) detector at the HL-LHC, covering the design, f…
Conceptual Design Report for the MATHUSLA Long-Lived Particle Detector near CMS
Branden Aitken, Cristiano Alpigiani, Juan Carlos Arteaga-Velázquez +70
We present the Conceptual Design Report (CDR) for the MATHUSLA (MAssive Timing Hodoscope for Ultra-Stable neutraL pArticles) long-lived particle detector at the HL-LHC, covering th…
Noble Dark Matter: Surprising Elusiveness of Dark Baryons
Pouya Asadi, Austin Batz, Graham D. Kribs
Dark matter could be a baryonic composite of strongly-coupled constituents transforming under SU(2). We classify the SU(2) representations of baryons in a class of simple c…
Dark Sector Glueballs at the LHC
Austin Batz, Timothy Cohen, David Curtin +2
We study confining dark sectors where the lightest hadrons are glueballs. Such models can provide viable dark matter candidates and appear in some neutral naturalness scenarios. In…
Background-Independent Composite Gravity
Austin J. Batz, Joshua Erlich, Luke Mrini
We explore a background-independent theory of composite gravity. The vacuum expectation value of the composite metric satisfies Einstein's equations (with corrections) as a consist…
