This Workshop aims to bring together the ever-growing community dedicated to the search of stable massive particles of high ionisation (HIPs). Such messengers of new physics arise in a plethora of theoretical scenarios and include charged particles, both electrically and magnetically: magnetic monopoles, dyons, supersymmetric partners, extra dimensions, doubly-charged Higgs, black-hole remnants, Q-balls, etc.
Presentations from current and future detectors in colliders, such as the LHC, or experiments searching for HIPs of cosmic origin will be gladly admitted. In particular the MoEDAL experiment at the LHC is specially designed to discover such particles. The Workshop is open to any theoretical ideas predicting massive, stable, charged new particles.
If you are interested to participate in the session, please choose this topic in the abstract submission. You can also contact by email the convenors (see below) and the conference email icnfp2017@gmail.com.
