Talk Beyond the Standard Model

Description

We will present the Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics potential of the proposed LH$\mu$C, an anti-muon-hadron collider at CERN [1,2]. By providing high-energy collisions between muons and protons, the LH$\mu$C offers unique sensitivity to new physics scenarios, particularly through resonant production channels and enhanced couplings to second-generation leptons. In the talk, we will discuss the broad discovery opportunities provided by this machine and how it complements purely hadronic colliders. To illustrate this potential, we will report benchmark results for three key scenarios: constraints on the muon g-2 anomaly using Effective Field Theory, searches for R-parity-violating Supersymmetry via lepton-quark fusion, and the resonant single production of color-octet muons. These example will serve to highlight the collider's capacity to significantly extend the discovery horizon into the multi-TeV regime.
