Lighting up the LHC with Dark Matter

Sebastian Baum, Marcela Carena, Tong Ou +3

We show that simultaneously explaining dark matter and the observed value of the muon's magnetic dipole moment may lead to yet unexplored photon signals at the LHC. We consider the…

Mineral Detection of Neutrinos and Dark Matter. A Whitepaper

Sebastian Baum, Patrick Stengel, Natsue Abe +66

Minerals are solid state nuclear track detectors - nuclear recoils in a mineral leave latent damage to the crystal structure. Depending on the mineral and its temperature, the dama…

Transient Radio Lines from Axion Miniclusters and Axion Stars

Samuel J. Witte, Sebastian Baum, Matthew Lawson +3

Gravitationally bound clumps of dark matter axions in the form of 'miniclusters' or even denser 'axion stars' can generate strong radio signals through axion-photon conversion when…

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…

Searching for Dark Clumps with Gravitational-Wave Detectors

Sebastian Baum, Michael A. Fedderke, Peter W. Graham

Dark compact objects ("clumps") transiting the Solar System exert accelerations on the test masses (TM) in a gravitational-wave (GW) detector. We reexamine the detectability of the…

Dark Stars Powered by Self-Interacting Dark Matter

Youjia Wu, Sebastian Baum, Katherine Freese +2

Dark matter annihilation might power the first luminous stars in the Universe. These types of stars, known as dark stars, could form in protohalos a…
