Darkly Charged ALPs
Nicolás M. Arenaza, Enrique Fernández-Martínez, Belén Gavela +4
The established ALP effective Lagrangian describes the interaction of scalars with approximate shift-symmetry which carry no Standard Model (SM) charges with SM fields. It im…

The photon parton distribution function (PDF) of the proton is crucial for precise comparisons of LHC cross sections with theoretical predictions. However, it was previously affect…
Field Redefinitions and Infinite Field Anomalous Dimensions
Aneesh V. Manohar, Julie Pagès, Jasper Roosmale Nepveu
Field redefinitions are commonly used to reduce the number of operators in the Lagrangian by removing redundant operators and transforming to a minimal operator basis. We give a ge…

The Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) and the Low Energy Effective Field Theory (LEFT) can be extended by adding additional spin 0, 1/2 and 1 dark matter particles whic…
