Long-lived axionlike particles from electromagnetic cascades
Samuel Patrone, Nikita Blinov, Ryan Plestid
We study axionlike particles (ALPs) in beam dump experiments, focusing on the Search for Hidden Particles (SHiP, at CERN) experiment and the Beam Dump eXperiment (BDX, at JLab). Ma…
Long-lived vectors from electromagnetic cascades at SHiP
Tao Zhou, Ryan Plestid, Kevin J. Kelly +2
We simulate dark-vector, , production from electromagnetic cascades at the recently approved SHiP experiment. The cascades (initiated by photons from ) can le…
Diphoton Signals of Muon-philic Scalars at DarkQuest
Nikita Blinov, Stefania Gori, Nick Hamer
We analyze the unique capability of the DarkQuest proton beam-dump experiment at Fermilab to discover new light resonances decaying into photons. As an example model, we focus on m…
Dark fluxes from electromagnetic cascades
Nikita Blinov, Patrick J. Fox, Kevin J. Kelly +2
We study dark sector production in electromagnetic (EM) cascades. This problem requires accurate simulations of Standard Model (SM) and dark sector processes, both of which impact…
