In this work, for the first time the implementation of the 3-3-1 model with right-handed neutrinos without exotic electric charges in SARAH package of MATHEMATICA is presented, and it shows how it correctly reproduces the analytical results of the model. As proof of this, we present the mass matrices for the quark sectors, where a Higgs sector with three scalar triplets has been used. Then,...

The three-loop corrections to the Higgs boson mass are usually computed in the on-shell scheme using the effective potential approach, where the external momentum are put equal to zero. In this presentation we are going to discuss the technical details for the Feynman diagrammatic computation of the external momentum dependence coming from the three-loop self-energy corrections to the Higgs...
This contribution explores the Machine Learning techniques and Quantum Computing concepts and applications in High Energy Physics considering a phenomenological and theoretical view. Besides, we show the main tools to explore the Standard Model extensions, decay process and the parameter space. With this set of tools, we want to explore the bounds and define exclusion regions, those bounds...
In this talk I will present our recent advances in the calculation of scattering amplitudes using strong homotopy algebras. This prescription inspired from string field theory allows to construct a generating function for all the tree-level scattering amplitudes. Several examples will be presented.
In this work, we consider a non-quadratic dilaton
Theories with anisotropy between space and time, also called Horava-Lifshtiz (HL) theories, has been studied in many works since the seminal paper of P. Horava was published, where the Lifshitz scaling is used to construct a power counting renormalizable gravity model. The Lifshitz scaling is described by the transformation
The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is one of the next generation of neutrino experiments in construction in the USA under an international scheme.

The remarkable discovery of gravitational waves from binary black hole mergers has given us a new way to study our universe. The origin of the black hole binaries remains unclear, I investigate whether information on the effective spin of binary black hole mergers from the LIGO-Virgo gravitational wave detections can be used to discriminate primordial versus astrophysical black holes. I will...
Indirect dark matter detection is a powerful search method that allows to explore a very wide range of the dark matter mass spectrum. I will present our recent results in which we exploit multi-messenger astrophysical observations to explore the allowed parameter space for various archetypal dark matter candidates with masses in the range 10 GeV to 10^16 GeV. Throughout my talk, I will...
In this talk we present the phenomenology of the Z5 model for two-component dark matter. This model, which can be seen as an extension of the well-known singlet scalar model, features two complex scalar fields--the dark matter particles--that are Standard Model singlets but have different charges under a Z5 symmetry. The interactions allowed by the Z5 give rise to novel processes between the...
We study a scalar dark matter (DM) model with two DM species coupled to standard model (SM) particles via a sub-GeV dark photon. The two DM candidates can be produced at fixed-target experiment a la Beam-Dump. Predictions for signal and backgrounds are obtained with the help of MadDump and NuWro Montecarlo generators. We explore the potential reach on the sensitivity of DUNE near detector...
A possibility to attempt at observing Dark Matter is to produce it at high energy colliders such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). LHC proton-proton collisions might result in the production of WIMPS in association with one or more QCD jets, photons as well as other detectable SM debris. Since WIMPs are electrically neutral and cosmologically stable massive particles, they manifest at...
Dark Matter and neutrinos are one of the most puzzling components of the Universe. Neutrino masses can be explained by radiative processes where Dark Matter particles are involved. Such models are known as Scotogenic DM models. The Dark Matter candidate in these models are stable thanks to the same symmetry that protect the radiative process. We present a realization of the scotogenic model...
We propose a general method to find anomaly free Abelian standard model extensions with radiative Dirac netrino masses and DM matter candidates
We present a multicomponent dark sector model, comprised of a fermionic and a scalar dark matter candidate. In the scalar sector, the dark matter candidate is the Inert Doublet Model, while the fermionic candidate is a mix of fields in different representations of the
The evaporation of primordial black holes (PBH) with masses ranging from ~10^-1 to ~10^9 g could have generated the whole observed dark matter (DM) relic density. It is typically assumed that after being produced, its abundance freezes and remains constant. However, thermalization and number-changing processes in the dark sector can have a strong impact, in particular enhancing the DM...
We studied a neutrino decay scenario as a potential solution to conciliate the tension between appearance and disappearance data at the short-baseline experiments. Particularly, we considered a heavy neutrino mass-eigenstate that decays into a usual light neutrino plus a massless scalar. Under this neutrino decay hypothesis, we fitted LSND and MiniBooNE electron neutrino appearance data...
In this work, we studied the modifications of the neutrino oscillation proba-
bilities due to possible non-standard interactions (NSI) with matter (taking into
account a constant matter density profile), focused on the channels ν μ → ν μ and
ν μ → ν e . First, the neutrino oscillation probability in matter without NSI was
studied and then we proceeded with NSI. The most relevant NSI...
The lifetime of a particle is usually considered as one of its inherent features. On one hand, the lifetime of non-elementary quantum objects like pions or muons can be calculated from the knowledge of the interaction which rules their decay. On the other hand, other particles such as the electron are regarded as stable, in the sense that they do not decay at all (at least within Standard...
We propose an
We all know that in the dense anisotropic interior of the star, neutrino- neutrino forward-scattering can lead to fast collective neutrino oscillations, which has striking consequences on flavor dependent neutrino emission and can be crucial for the evolution of a supernova and its neutrino signal. Although the triggering and initial growth of fast oscillations are understood, owing to its...
In the context of the dark energy scenario, the Einstein Yang-Mills Higgs model in the SO(3) representation was studied for the first time by M. Rinaldi (see JCAP 1510, 023 (2015)) in a homogeneous and isotropic spacetime. We revisit this model, finding in particular that the interaction between the Higgs field and the gauge fields generates contributions to the momentum density,...
In this work, we study a triplet of inhomogeneous scalar fields, known as “solid”, as a source of anisotropic dark energy. By using a dynamical system approach, we find that anisotropic accelerated solutions can be realized as attractor points for suitable parameters of the model. We compliment the dynamical analysis with a numerical solution whose initial conditions are set in the deep...
The large scale structure bispectrum contains information about the dynamics of the early universe in the squeezed limit since it couples large scales and short scales. Therefore, we compute the dark matter and galaxy bispectrum in a framework that is non-linear and based on General Relativity. To start, we use the weak-field approximation and standard perturbation theory to find the fluid...
The current experimentally measured parameters of the Standard Model (SM) suggest that our universe lies in a metastable electroweak vacuum, where the Higgs field could decay to a lower vacuum state with catastrophic consequences. Our measurements dictate that such an event has not happened yet, despite the many different mechanisms that could have triggered it during our past light-cone. Via...
Muography is a technique that allows us to estimate the distribution of matter in the inner structure of geophysical formations like volcanoes. This technique is based on the measurement of the absorption of atmospheric muons that go through the structure, so that with a hodoscope instrument it is possible to build a map of density of matter, similar to a medical X-ray image. The MuTe...
Exposure to ionizing radiation during commercial flights has repercussions on human health, in particular for flights pass through the South Atlantic Geomagnetic Anomaly (SAA). This radiation is originated from the interaction of cosmic rays (CR) with Earth's atmosphere. Likewise, the flux of CR with energies around GeV is affected by the Geomagnetic field, this establishes a dependence...

We describe the mass spectrum of light pseudoscalars and axial mesons using a modified softwall model with an UV cutoff. These mesons are included using an anomalous dimension that shift the conformal dimension of the non-interacting bulk fields. Using the extra UV cutoff approach, we can fit six eta and six a1 states organized in radial trajectories with an error close to 21.1%. We also...
A Peccei-Quinn~(PQ) symmetry is proposed, in order to generate in the Standard Model~(SM) quark sector a realistic mass matrix ansatz with five texture-zeros. Limiting our analysis to Hermitian mass matrices we show that this requires a minimum of 4 Higgs doublets. This model allows assigning values close to 1 for several Yukawa couplings, giving insight into the origin of the mass scales in...

A Peccei-Quinn~(PQ) symmetry is proposed, in order to generate a realistic mass matrix ansatz with five texture-zeros for both quark and lepton sector in the Standard Model~(SM). Limiting our analysis to Hermitian mass matrices we show that this requires a minimum of 4 Higgs doublets. The price we pay is to have Yukawa values in the lepton sector much lower than 1, but consistent with the...

We discuss in this talk several physical principles as well as emerging observational constraints, as the speed of gravitational waves, that any dark energy model has to face in order to ensure its cosmological viability. In particular dark energy models based on modified gravity theories find a major challenge for addressing the late-time dynamics in a consistent way due to the presence of...
In this work we present a phenomenological analysis of a WIMP/axion dark matter model with radiatively generated neutrino masses. In this model the PQ mechanism is responsible for Dirac neutrino masses through the realization of a five-dimension effective operator at one-loop level , as well as for the stability of all mediators in the loop by means of a remaining Z 2 symmetry originating from...
