A Quirky Probe of Neutral Naturalness
Zackaria Chacko, David Curtin, Christopher B. Verhaaren
We consider the signals arising from top partner pair production at the LHC as a probe of theories of Neutral Naturalness. We focus on scenarios in which top partners carry electro…
Quirky Explanations for the Diphoton Excess
David Curtin, Christopher B. Verhaaren
We propose two simple quirk models to explain the recently reported 750 GeV diphoton excesses at ATLAS and CMS. It is already well-known that a real singlet scalar with Yukawa…
Towards a No-Lose Theorem for Naturalness
David Curtin, Prashant Saraswat
We derive a phenomenological no-lose theorem for naturalness up to the TeV scale, which applies when quantum corrections to the Higgs mass from top quarks are canceled by perturbat…
Discovering Uncolored Naturalness in Exotic Higgs Decays
David Curtin, Christopher B. Verhaaren
Solutions to the hierarchy problem usually require top partners. In standard SUSY or composite Higgs theories, the partners carry SM color and are becoming increasingly constrained…
A facility to Search for Hidden Particles at the CERN SPS: the SHiP physics case
Sergey Alekhin, Wolfgang Altmannshofer, Takehiko Asaka +82
This paper describes the physics case for a new fixed target facility at CERN SPS. The SHiP (Search for Hidden Particles) experiment is intended to hunt for new physics in the larg…
Towards an Understanding of the Correlations in Jet Substructure
D. Adams, A. Arce, L. Asquith +83
Over the past decade, a large number of jet substructure observables have been proposed in the literature, and explored at the LHC experiments. Such observables attempt to utilize…
