Stepped Partially Acoustic Dark Matter: Likelihood Analysis and Cosmological Tensions
Manuel A. Buen-Abad, Zackaria Chacko, Can Kilic +2
We generalize the recently proposed Stepped Partially Acoustic Dark Matter (SPartAcous) model by including additional massless degrees of freedom in the dark radiation sector. We f…
Composite Dark Matter and Neutrino Masses from a Light Hidden Sector
Aqeel Ahmed, Zackaria Chacko, Niral Desai +3
We study a class of models in which the particle that constitutes dark matter arises as a composite state of a strongly coupled hidden sector. The hidden sector interacts with the…
Optimizing pixel tracklet searches for shorter lifetimes
Matthew Gignac, Can Kilic, Rakhi Mahbubani +1
Pixel tracklets, disappearing tracks reconstructed with only pixel hits, have proven to be a promising technique in LHC analyses to search for dark matter candidates at the LHC tha…
Applying Machine Learning Techniques To Intermediate-Length Cascade Decays
Maaz Ul Haq, Can Kilic, Benjamin Lawrence-Sanderson +1
In the collider phenomenology of extensions of the Standard Model with partner particles, cascade decays occur generically, and they can be challenging to discover when the spectru…
Stepped Partially Acoustic Dark Matter, Large Scale Structure, and the Hubble Tension
Manuel A. Buen-Abad, Zackaria Chacko, Can Kilic +2
We propose a new interacting dark sector model, Stepped Partially Acoustic Dark Matter (SPartAcous), that can simultaneously address the two most important tensions in current cosm…
Twin Quark Dark Matter From Cogenesis
Can Kilic, Christopher B. Verhaaren, Taewook Youn
We extend the fraternal twin Higgs scenario to include a novel dark matter candidate as well as a mechanism for generating a matter/antimatter asymmetry in both sectors. A spontane…
