Reexamining the search for light ALPs at flavor and forward accelerator experiments
Tong Li, Michael A. Schmidt, Man Yuan
The axion-like particle (ALP) is a well-motivated extension of the Standard Model. In this work, we revisit the sensitivity of forward accelerator experiments to light long-lived A…

Squeezing Proton Decay and Neutrino Masses: Upper Bounds on Standard Model Extensions
Arnau Bas i Beneito, John Gargalionis, Juan Herrero-Garcia +1
Baryon and lepton number are excellent low-energy symmetries of the Standard Model (SM) that tightly constrain the form of its extensions. In this paper we investigate the possibil…

Baryon-number-violating nucleon decays in sterile neutrino effective field theories
Tong Li, Michael A. Schmidt, Chang-Yuan Yao
The search for baryon-number-violating (BNV) nucleon decay provides an intriguing probe of new physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). Future neutrino experiments will improve the…
