Search for Highly-Ionizing Particles in pp Collisions at the LHC's Run-1 Using the Prototype MoEDAL Detector
B. Acharya, J. Alexandre, P. Benes +68
A search for highly electrically charged objects (HECOs) and magnetic monopoles is presented using 2.2 fb-1 of p - p collision data taken at a centre of mass energy (ECM) of 8 TeV…
First experimental search for production of magnetic monopoles via the Schwinger mechanism
B. Acharya, J. Alexandre, P. Benes +64
Schwinger showed that electrically-charged particles can be produced in a strong electric field by quantum tunnelling through the Coulomb barrier. By electromagnetic duality, if ma…
First search for dyons with the full MoEDAL trapping detector in 13 TeV pp collisions
B. Acharya, J. Alexandre, P. Benes +66
The MoEDAL trapping detector, consists of approximately 800 kg of aluminium volumes. It was exposed during Run-2 of the LHC program to 6.46 fb^-1 of 13 TeV proton-proton collisions…
Magnetic monopole search with the full MoEDAL trapping detector in 13 TeV collisions interpreted in photon-fusion and Drell-Yan production
MoEDAL Collaboration, B. Acharya, J. Alexandre +66
MoEDAL is designed to identify new physics in the form of stable or pseudostable highly ionizing particles produced in high-energy Large Hadron Collider (LHC) collisions. Here we u…
Search for magnetic monopoles with the MoEDAL forward trapping detector in 2.11 fb of 13 TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHC
MoEDAL Collaboration, B. Acharya, J. Alexandre +68
We update our previous search for trapped magnetic monopoles in LHC Run 2 using nearly six times more integrated luminosity and including additional models for the interpretation o…
Search for magnetic monopoles with the MoEDAL forward trapping detector in 13 TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHC
MoEDAL Collaboration, B. Acharya, J. Alexandre +68
MoEDAL is designed to identify new physics in the form of long-lived highly-ionising particles produced in high-energy LHC collisions. Its arrays of plastic nuclear-track detectors…
Search for magnetic monopoles with the MoEDAL prototype trapping detector in 8 TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHC
MoEDAL Collaboration, B. Acharya, J. Alexandre +66
The MoEDAL experiment is designed to search for magnetic monopoles and other highly-ionising particles produced in high-energy collisions at the LHC. The largely passive MoEDAL det…
Impact of Energy and Luminosity upgrades at LHC on the Physics program of ATLAS
G. Azuelos, D. Benchekroun, O. Cakir +14
The impact on the physics capabilities of the ATLAS detector of possible LHC upgrades is discussed. As a benchmark, an increase in the luminosity by a factor of ten is considered.…
