Searching for heavy charged relics in the Earth
Reza Ebadi, Peter W. Graham, Surjeet Rajendran +2
We propose a method for detecting an ambient density of heavy, electrically-charged particles. Such particles would impact the Earth, lose energy in terrestrial matter, and become…

Heavy-element paleodetectors for Higgsino dark matter
Peter W. Graham, Harikrishnan Ramani, Samuel S. Y. Wong
Paleodetectors have been proposed as a new approach to direct detection of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), through the search for damage tracks in ancient minerals in…

Melting LHC detectors: a novel search for stopped long-lived particles
Julia L. Gonski, Peter W. Graham, Surjeet Rajendran +2
Particles at the TeV scale with lifetimes of a year or longer could have been abundantly produced at the LHC yet escaped detection because of backgrounds, and could still be trappe…
