Gamma lines provide a clean and distinctive signature, and hence, they represent a smoking gun for the discovery of the dark matter. Unfortunately, for many well-known dark matter models it is not possible to observe them, either because they are not predicted by the theory or they are overcome by the background. I will provide a simple guide to classify abelian dark matter models according to...

We demonstrate that the recent forward-forward dijet correlation data measured by the ATLAS collaboration for proton-proton and proton-lead collisions are consistent with the broadening effects due to both the gluon saturation and the resummation of large logarithms of the hard scale (the so-called Sudakov logarithms). We find that both effects are necessary to describe the experimental results.

The LHC heavy-ion physics program aims at investigating the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) formed in such collisions. Heavy quarks (charm and beauty) are regarded as efficient probes to study and characterize the QGP, as they are created on a very short time scale in initial hard processes and subsequently experience the entire system evolution interacting with the medium...

Off-shell Higgs at the high mass tail may shed light on the underlying mechanism of the electroweak symmetry breaking. In the Standard Model, there is an exact cancellation of the logarithmic divergence between the box and Higgs-mediated triangle diagrams due to unitarity, such that the gg to ZZ(WW) process in the SM is dominated by the vector boson transverse-mode. The cancellation can be...

The sources of cosmic-rays beyond the knee of the cosmic-ray spectrum 10$^{15}$eV (= 1 PeV) are not firmly discovered yet.

We present new precision predictions for semitauonic decays involving rho and omega final state mesons. These decay channels offer an interesting orthogonal probe to study the existing B anomalies in semitauonic transitions and are accessible with the Belle II experiment. The predictions are based on combining existing light-cone sum-rule calculations for the form factors with measured...

I will consider a simplified model where the SM is extended with one Majorana fermion, the dark matter, and one charged scalar, the mediator, coupling to the SM leptons through a Yukawa interaction.

The Inert Doublet Model (IDM) is one of the simplest extensions of the Standard Model (SM), providing a dark matter candidate. It is a two Higgs doublet model with a discrete Z2 symmetry, that prevents the scalars of the second doublet (inert scalars) from coupling to the SM fermions and makes the lightest of them stable. We study a large statistics of IDM scenarios, which are consistent with...

The knowledge of the proton parton densities for large $x$ is very important in the search for new physics signals at the LHC. For Bjorken-$x$ larger than 0.6 they are however poorly constrained by the data used in extracting the proton parton density functions (PDFs) and different pdf sets have large uncertainties, and differ considerably, in this regime. We compare the pdf sets most widely...

In top quark production, the polarization of top quarks, decided by the chiral structure of couplings, is likely to be modified in the presence of any new physics contribution to the production. Hence the same is a good discriminator for those new physics models wherein the couplings have a chiral structure different than that in the Standard Model (SM). In this note we construct probes of the...

We suggest that generalized parton distributions can be probed in charged current meson production process, like $ep\to e\pi^{−}p$ and $ep\to e\rho^{−}p$. In contrast to pion photoproduction, this process is sensitive to the unpolarized GPDs $H, E$, and for this reason has a very small contamination by higher twist and Bethe-Heitler type contributions.

We have performed an object tagging approach to identify boosted top quark decaying to electron or muon final state without an explicit use of the lepton. When top quark is produced with large transverse momentum, its daughter lepton has a hadronic activity in it's neighborhood, and hence standard lepton identification and isolation criteria are affected. We have come up with novel observables...

NNLO predictions for jet production in Deep Inelastic Scattering have recently become available. These are used to extend the QCD HERAPDF2.0Jets fits, that were made to extract PDFs from inclusive HERA data and HERA jet data, from NLO to NNLO. In addition new jet data sets have become available since the publication of HERAPDF2.0 and these are also considered.

Coherence leads to $p_T$ broadening of partons in high-multiplicity events, which is a manifestation of the effect of parton saturation. Appearance of the saturation scale generates via DGLAP evolution an enhancement of low-x gluons. Mutual enhancement of low-x gluons in both colliding hadrons (pp, AA) results in an even stronger boost of the saturation scales. This explains the observed steep...

A detailed understanding of neutrino(ν)-nucleus interactions is essential for the precise measurement of neutrino oscillations at long baseline experiments, such as T2K. The T2K ND complex, designed to constrain the T2K flux and cross section models, also provides a complementary program of neutrino interaction cross-section measurements.

We summarize the current status of particle physics, collecting the established deviations from the standard model of particle interactions both at the energy and the intensity frontier as well as in cosmology. We propose a specific U(1) extension of the standard model of particle interactions and discuss the possible consequences of the model concerning the observed deviations. We present...

When technicolor (TC), QCD, extended technicolor (ETC) and other interactions become coupled through their different Schwinger-Dyson equations, the solution of these equations are modified compared to those of the isolated equations. The change in the self-energies is similar to that obtained in the presence of four-fermion interactions, but without their ad hoc inclusion in the theory. In...

The ATLAS experiment aims at recording about 1 kHz of physics collisions, starting with an LHC design bunch crossing rate of 40 MHz. To reduce the significant background rate while maintaining a high selection efficiency for rare physics events (such as beyond the Standard Model physics), a two-level trigger system is used.
Events are selected based on physics signatures such as the...

In the high luminosity era of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), the instantaneous luminosity is expected to reach unprecedented values, resulting in about 200 proton-proton interactions in a typical bunch crossing.

The origin of neutrino oscillations is the coherent superposition of different neutrino states. The loss of coherence of neutrino states due to neutrino interactions with an external environment leads to damping of oscillations. The neutrino quantum decoherence is studied in the formalism of open quantum systems using a density matrix. In the framework of this approach, it is possible to...

In this talk, we discuss the inclusive production of hadrons in the framework of the CGC/saturation approach. We argue, that gluon jet inclusive production stems from the vicinity of the saturation momentum, even for small values of the transverse momenta $p_T$. Since in this region, we theoretically, know the scattering amplitude, we claim that we can provide reliable estimates for...

We show that three generations of leptons and quarks with unbroken Standard Model gauge symmetry $SU(3)_c\times U(1)_{em}$ can be described using the algebra of complexified sedenions $\mathbb{C}\otimes\mathbb{S}$. A primitive idempotent is constructed by selecting a special direction, and the action of this projector on the basis of $\mathbb{C}\otimes\mathbb{S}$ can be used to uniquely split...

We describe two natural scenarios in which both dark matter weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) and a variety of supersymmetric partners should be discovered in the foreseeable future. In the first scenario, the WIMPs are neutralinos, but they are only one component of the dark matter, which is dominantly composed of other relic particles such as axions. (This is the multicomponent...
