A Letter of Intent for MATHUSLA: a dedicated displaced vertex detector above ATLAS or CMS
Cristiano Alpigiani, Austin Ball, Liron Barak +61
In this Letter of Intent (LOI) we propose the construction of MATHUSLA (MAssive Timing Hodoscope for Ultra-Stable neutraL pArticles), a dedicated large-volume displaced vertex dete…
Displaced Lepton Jet Signatures from Self-Interacting Dark Matter Bound States
Yuhsin Tsai, Tao Xu, Hai-Bo Yu
We study self-interacting dark matter signatures at the Large Hadron Collider. A light dark photon, mediating dark matter self-interactions, can bind dark matter particles to form…
Addressing Astrophysical and Cosmological Problems With Secretly Asymmetric Dark Matter
Christopher Dessert, Can Kilic, Cynthia Trendafilova +1
We present a simple model of dark matter that can address astrophysical and cosmological puzzles across a wide range of scales. The model is an application of the Secretly Asymmetr…
Long-Lived Particles at the Energy Frontier: The MATHUSLA Physics Case
David Curtin, Marco Drewes, Matthew McCullough +85
We examine the theoretical motivations for long-lived particle (LLP) signals at the LHC in a comprehensive survey of Standard Model (SM) extensions. LLPs are a common prediction of…
Magnetic Field Transfer From A Hidden Sector
Kohei Kamada, Yuhsin Tsai, Tanmay Vachaspati
Primordial magnetic fields in the dark sector can be transferred to magnetic fields in the visible sector due to a gauge kinetic mixing term. We show that the transfer occurs when…
Primordial Anisotropies in the Gravitational Wave Background from Cosmological Phase Transitions
Michael Geller, Anson Hook, Raman Sundrum +1
Phase transitions in the early universe can readily create an observable stochastic gravitational wave background. We show that such a background necessarily contains anisotropies…
