Comprehensive exploration of t-channel simplified models of dark matter
Chiara Arina, Benjamin Fuks, Jan Heisig +3
We analyse six classes of t-channel dark matter simplified models in which the Standard Model field content is extended by a coloured mediator and a dark matter state. The two new…
Vector-Like Top Quark Production via an Electroweak Dipole Moment at a Muon Collider
Alexander Belyaev, R. Sekhar Chivukula, Benjamin Fuks +2
Vectorial partners of the Standard Model quarks and leptons are predicted in many dynamical models of electroweak symmetry breaking. The most easily accessible of these new particl…
Electroweak superpartner production at 13.6 TeV with Resummino
J. Fiaschi, B. Fuks, M. Klasen +1
Due to the greater experimental precision expected from the currently ongoing LHC Run 3, equally accurate theoretical predictions are essential. We update the documentation of the…
UFO 2.0 -- The Universal Feynman Output format
Luc Darmé, Céline Degrande, Claude Duhr +16
We present an update of the Universal FeynRules Output model format, commonly known as the UFO format, that is used by several automated matrix-element generators and high-energy p…
Searches for new physics with boosted top quarks in the MadAnalysis 5 and Rivet frameworks
Jack Y. Araz, Andy Buckley, Benjamin Fuks
High-momentum top quarks are a natural physical system in collider experiments for testing models of new physics, and jet substructure methods are key both to exploiting their larg…

This is the Snowmass2021 Energy Frontier (EF) Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) report. It combines the EF topical group reports of EF08 (Model-specific explorations), EF09 (More gen…
TF08 Snowmass Report: BSM Model Building
Patrick J. Fox, Graham D. Kribs, Hitoshi Murayama +53
We summarize the state of Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) model building in particle physics for Snowmass 2021, focusing mainly on several whitepaper contributions to BSM model bui…
Single Vector-Like top quark production via chromomagnetic interactions at present and future hadron colliders A Snowmass 2021 White Paper
Alexander Belyaev, R. Sekhar Chivukula, Benjamin Fuks +2
In our recent paper, we have investigated the potential for the LHC to discover vector-like quark partner states singly produced via their chromomagnetic moment interactions. These…
Top partners and scalar dark matter -- a non-minimal reappraisal
Alan S. Cornell, Aldo Deandrea, Thomas Flacke +2
A large set of models beyond the Standard Model of particle physics suggest that the top quark plays a special role in fundamental interactions. At the same time some of these mode…
Strength in numbers: optimal and scalable combination of LHC new-physics searches
Jack Y. Araz, Andy Buckley, Benjamin Fuks +4
To gain a comprehensive view of what the LHC tells us about physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM), it is crucial that different BSM-sensitive analyses can be combined. But in gen…
Scalar leptoquarks at the LHC and flavour anomalies: a comparison of pair-production modes at NLO-QCD

We analyse scalar leptoquark pair production at the LHC with predictions including -channel lepton exchange contributions up to next-to-leading order (NLO) in QCD. In particular…
Signal region combination with full and simplified likelihoods in MadAnalysis 5
