  1. 17. Using photon collisions to search for dark matter
    Lydia Audrey Beresford (University of Oxford (GB))

    Diffraction and Central Exclusive Production

    We outline a novel search strategy for scalar leptons and dark matter targeting a key area of phase space favoured by cosmological observations and muon g-2 anomalies. This region is experimentally challenging and currently inaccessible at the LHC. By using the LHC protons to source photon-photon interactions and detecting the intact protons with forward detectors, recently installed by the...

  2. 21. Searches for Dark Matter at the LHC in forward proton mode

    Diffraction and Central Exclusive Production

    We analyze in detail the LHC prospects at the center-of-mass enery of 14 TeV for charged electroweakino searches, decaying to leptons, in compressed supersymmetry scenarios, via exclusive photon-initiated pair production. This provides a potentially increased sensitivity in comparison to inclusive channels, where the background is often overwhelming. We pay particular attention to the...

  3. 25. Searching for odderon exchange in exclusive reactions with $\phi$ meson

    Diffraction and Central Exclusive Production

    P. Lebiedowicz, O. Nachtmann and A. Szczurek

    Last year results of the TOTEM collaboration suggest
    that the odderon exchange can be responsible for a disagreement
    of theoretical calculations and the TOTEM data (recent Nicolescu papers)
    for elastic proton-proton scattering. Similar conclusion can be drawn when
    comparing recent $p p$ result for $\sqrt{s}$ = 2.74 TeV with the Tevatron...

  4. 16. Result for Pomeron and Odderon parameter using IR regulators
    Dr Carlos Contreras (Santa Maria University)
    24/06/2019, 15:20
    Recent theoretical developments

    We will present new results for the Pomeron and Odderon Slope, Intercept and Wave functions using Infra-red regulator, in particular the Wilsonian ERG ideas.

  5. 1. PPS results and prospects from CMS/TOTEM
    Justin Andrew Williams (The University of Kansas (US)), CMS Collaboration
    24/06/2019, 15:45
    Diffraction and Central Exclusive Production

    We will present the first results and the physics prospects from the CMS Precision Proton Spectrometers namely the observation of exclusive dileptons at high mass, and the search for quartic anomalous couplings and axion like particles at high masses at the LHC in the CMS collaboration.
