Collider Search I
- Antonio Boveia (Ohio State University)
An interesting class of models posits that the dark matter is a Majorana
fermion which interacts with a quark together with a colored scalar mediator. Such a
theory can be tested in direct detection experiments, through dark matter scattering
with heavy nuclei, and at the LHC, via jets and missing energy signatures. Motivated
by the fact that such theories have spin-independent...
This talk will report the results of a search for new phenomena in final states with at least one energetic jet and large missing transverse momentum. The search uses $80$ fb$^{−1}$ of $pp$ collision data at $\sqrt{S}=13$ TeV collected in Run-2 with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Results are interpreted in the context of Dark Matter, Dark Energy, Supersymmetry, Higgs...
Discovering dark matter particles and understanding their connection to the Standard Model is one of the greatest quests in particle physics and cosmology today and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) offers a large range of important search channels. The first searches for weakly interacting massive particle dark matter produced in association with top quarks based on the complete dataset at 13...
A search for beyond standard model (BSM) physics in events with a Z boson recoiling against missing transverse momentum at the CMS experiment at the LHC is presented. This search is interpreted for a spin-1 simplified dark matter vector or axial-vector mediator as well as for a Higgs-like scalar or pseudoscalar mediator. The search utilises the full Run II dataset corresponding to an...
