The Dark Machines Anomaly Score Challenge: Benchmark Data and Model Independent Event Classification for the Large Hadron Collider
T. Aarrestad, M. van Beekveld, M. Bona +36
We describe the outcome of a data challenge conducted as part of the Dark Machines Initiative and the Les Houches 2019 workshop on Physics at TeV colliders. The challenged aims at…
Les Houches 2019 Physics at TeV Colliders: New Physics Working Group Report
G. Brooijmans, A. Buckley, S. Caron +87
This report presents the activities of the `New Physics' working group for the `Physics at TeV Colliders' workshop (Les Houches, France, 10--28 June, 2019). These activities includ…
Guiding New Physics Searches with Unsupervised Learning
Andrea De Simone, Thomas Jacques
We propose a new scientific application of unsupervised learning techniques to boost our ability to search for new phenomena in data, by detecting discrepancies between two dataset…
Simplified Models vs. Effective Field Theory Approaches in Dark Matter Searches
Andrea De Simone, Thomas Jacques
In this review we discuss and compare the usage of simplified models and Effective Field Theory (EFT) approaches in dark matter searches. We provide a state of the art description…
Simplified Models for Dark Matter and Missing Energy Searches at the LHC
Jalal Abdallah, Adi Ashkenazi, Antonio Boveia +22
The study of collision events with missing energy as searches for the dark matter (DM) component of the Universe are an essential part of the extensive program looking for new phys…
Non-Gaussianities from the Standard Model Higgs
Andrea De Simone, Hideki Perrier, Antonio Riotto
We have recently proposed that the Standard Model Higgs might be responsible for generating the cosmological perturbations of the universe by acting as an isocurvature mode during…
Cosmological Perturbations from the Standard Model Higgs
Andrea De Simone, Antonio Riotto
We propose that the Standard Model (SM) Higgs is responsible for generating the cosmological perturbations of the universe by acting as an isocurvature mode during a de Sitter infl…
On the Importance of Electroweak Corrections for Majorana Dark Matter Indirect Detection
Paolo Ciafaloni, Marco Cirelli, Denis Comelli +3
Recent analyses have shown that the inclusion of electroweak corrections can alter significantly the energy spectra of Standard Model particles originated from dark matter annihila…
Lopsided Gauge Mediation
Andrea De Simone, Roberto Franceschini, Gian Francesco Giudice +2
It has been recently pointed out that the unavoidable tuning among supersymmetric parameters required to raise the Higgs boson mass beyond its experimental limit opens up new avenu…
Low-scale gaugino mediation, lots of leptons at the LHC
Andrea De Simone, JiJi Fan, Martin Schmaltz +1
Low-scale gaugino mediation predicts that gauginos are significantly heavier than scalar superpartners. In order of increasing mass the lightest superpartners are the gravitino, ri…
Quantum Boltzmann equations in resonant leptogenesis
Andrea De Simone
The quantum Boltzmann equations relevant for leptogenesis, obtained using non-equilibrium quantum field theory, are described. They manifest memory effects leading to a time-depend…
On Resonant Leptogenesis
Andrea De Simone, Antonio Riotto
It has been recently shown that the quantum Boltzmann equations may be relevant for the leptogenesis scenario. In particular, they lead to a time-dependent CP asymmetry which depen…
Quantum Boltzmann Equations and Leptogenesis
Andrea De Simone, Antonio Riotto
The closed time-path formalism is a powerful Green's function formulation to describe non-equilibrium phenomena in field theory and it leads to a complete non-equilibrium quantum k…
