Searching for long-lived particles beyond the Standard Model at the Large Hadron Collider [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle Physics, 2019
Particles beyond the Standard Model (SM) can generically have lifetimes that are long compared to SM particles at the weak scale. When produced at experiments such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, these long-lived particles (LLPs) can decay ...

Black hole production of monopoles in the early universe

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
In the early universe, evaporating black holes heat up the surrounding plasma and create a temperature profile around the black hole that can be more important than the black hole itself.

Dark moments for the Standard Model?

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
If dark matter (DM) interacts with the Standard Model (SM) via the kinetic mixing (KM) portal, it necessitates the existence of portal matter (PM) particles which carry both dark and SM quantum numbers that will appear in vacuum polarization-like loop ...

Analytic study of dark photon and gravitational wave production from axion

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
Axion-like fields heavier than about 10 −27 eV are expected to oscillate in the radiation dominated epoch when the Hubble parameter drops below their mass.

Spillway preheating

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
In traditional models only an order one fraction of energy is transferred from the inflaton to radiation through nonperturbative resonance production in preheating immediately after inflation, due to backreaction effects. We propose a particle production

Thermal QCD Axions across Thresholds

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
Thermal axion production in the early universe goes through several mass thresholds, and the resulting rate may change dramatically across them. Focusing on the KSVZ and DFSZ frameworks for the invisible QCD axion, we perform a systematic analysis of ...

Unification of the standard model and dark matter sectors in [SU(5) × U(1)]4

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
A simple model of dark matter contains a light Dirac field charged under a hidden U(1) gauge symmetry. When a chiral matter content in a strong dynamics satisfies the t’Hooft anomaly matching condition, a massless baryon is a natural candidate of the ...

Dark matter from a complex scalar singlet: the role of dark CP and other discrete symmetries

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We study the case of a pseudo-scalar dark matter candidate which emerges from a complex scalar singlet, charged under a global U(1) symmetry, which is broken both explicitly and spontaneously.

Non-minimal (self-)running inflation: metric vs. Palatini formulation

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We consider a model of quartic inflation where the inflaton is coupled non-minimally to gravity and the self-induced radiative corrections to its effective potential are dominant.

Reheating neutron stars with the annihilation of self-interacting dark matter

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
Compact stellar objects such as neutron stars (NS) are ideal places for capturing dark matter (DM) particles. We study the effect of self-interacting DM (SIDM) captured by nearby NS that can reheat it to an appreciated surface temperature through ...
