Report of the Topical Group on Physics Beyond the Standard Model at Energy Frontier for Snowmass 2021
Tulika Bose, Antonio Boveia, Caterina Doglioni +318
This is the Snowmass2021 Energy Frontier (EF) Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) report. It combines the EF topical group reports of EF08 (Model-specific explorations), EF09 (More gen…
Cosmology with the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna
Pierre Auclair, David Bacon, Tessa Baker +177
The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) has two scientific objectives of cosmological focus: to probe the expansion rate of the universe, and to understand stochastic gravita…
Probing the Electroweak Phase Transition with Exotic Higgs Decays
Marcela Carena, Jonathan Kozaczuk, Zhen Liu +5
An essential goal of the Higgs physics program at the LHC and beyond is to explore the nature of the Higgs potential and shed light on the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breakin…
Signals of primordial black holes at gravitational wave interferometers
Jonathan Kozaczuk, Tongyan Lin, Ethan Villarama
Primordial black holes (PBHs) can form as a result of primordial scalar perturbations at small scales. This PBH formation scenario has associated gravitational wave (GW) signatures…
Uncovering an Axion Mechanism with the EDM Portfolio
Jordy de Vries, Patrick Draper, Kaori Fuyuto +2
Effective field theory arguments suggest that if BSM sectors contain new sources of CP-violation that couple to QCD, these sources will renormalize the term and frustrate ultra…
DarkELF: A python package for dark matter scattering in dielectric targets
Simon Knapen, Jonathan Kozaczuk, Tongyan Lin
We present a python package to calculate interaction rates of light dark matter in dielectric materials, including screening effects. The full response of the material is parametri…
Dark matter-electron scattering in dielectrics
Simon Knapen, Jonathan Kozaczuk, Tongyan Lin
A number of direct detection experiments are searching for electron excitations created by scattering of sub-GeV dark matter. We present an alternate formulation of dark matter-ele…
The Migdal effect in semiconductors
Simon Knapen, Jonathan Kozaczuk, Tongyan Lin
When a nucleus in an atom undergoes a collision, there is a small probability to inelastically excite an electron as a result of the Migdal effect. In this Letter, we present a fir…
Towards an all-orders calculation of the electroweak bubble wall velocity
Stefan Hoeche, Jonathan Kozaczuk, Andrew J. Long +2
We analyze Higgs condensate bubble expansion during a first-order electroweak phase transition in the early Universe. The interaction of particles with the bubble wall can be accom…
Plasmon production from dark matter scattering
Jonathan Kozaczuk, Tongyan Lin
We present a first calculation of the rate for plasmon production in semiconductors from nuclei recoiling against dark matter. The process is analogous to bremsstrahlung of transve…
Exotic Higgs Decays and the Electroweak Phase Transition
Jonathan Kozaczuk, Michael J. Ramsey-Musolf, Jessie Shelton
Light new physics weakly coupled to the Higgs can induce a strong first-order electroweak phase transition (EWPT). Here, we argue that scenarios in which the EWPT is driven first-o…
Detecting gravitational waves from cosmological phase transitions with LISA: an update
Chiara Caprini, Mikael Chala, Glauber C. Dorsch +11
We investigate the potential for observing gravitational waves from cosmological phase transitions with LISA in light of recent theoretical and experimental developments. Our analy…

B. Di Micco, M. Gouzevitch, J. Mazzitelli +104
This document summarises the current theoretical and experimental status of the di-Higgs boson production searches, and of the direct and indirect constraints on the Higgs boson se…
Dark Matter Targets for Axion-like Particle Searches
Nikita Blinov, Matthew J. Dolan, Patrick Draper +1
Many existing and proposed experiments targeting QCD axion dark matter (DM) can also search for a broad class of axion-like particles (ALPs). We analyze the experimental sensitivit…
Nonperturbative analysis of the gravitational waves from a first-order electroweak phase transition
Oliver Gould, Jonathan Kozaczuk, Lauri Niemi +3
We present the first end-to-end nonperturbative analysis of the gravitational wave power spectrum from a thermal first-order electroweak phase transition (EWPT), using the framewor…
Precision Inclusive Higgs Physics at Colliders With Tracking Detectors and Without Calorimetry
Patrick Draper, Jonathan Kozaczuk, Scott Thomas
A primary goal of a future collider program will be the precision measurement of Higgs boson properties. For practical reasons it is of interest to determine the minimal s…
Indirect Signs of the Peccei-Quinn Mechanism
Jordy de Vries, Patrick Draper, Kaori Fuyuto +2
In the Standard Model, the renormalization of the QCD vacuum angle is extremely tiny, and small is technically natural. In the general Standard Model effective field theory…

We investigate the prospects for detecting light leptophilic dark sectors with a missing-momentum experiment at NA64 running in muon mode. In particular, we consider models in whic…
Theta in new QCD-like sectors
Patrick Draper, Jonathan Kozaczuk, Jiang-Hao Yu
New QCD-like `hypercolor' sectors can generate a broad class of new signatures at hadron colliders and furnish a variety of dark matter candidates. Paired diboson resonances are a…
