This document a outlines set of simplified models for dark matter and its interactions with Standard Model particles. It is intended to summarize the main characteristics that these have when applied searches at LHC, provide number useful expressions reference. The list includes both s-channel t-channel scenarios. For s-channel, spin-0 spin-1 mediations are discussed, also realizations where Higgs particle provides portal between visible sectors. guiding principles underpinning proposed...
Abstract The Ultraviolet Transient Astronomy Satellite (ULTRASAT) is scheduled to be launched geostationary orbit in 2027. It will carry a telescope with an unprecedentedly large field of view (204 deg 2 ) and near-ultraviolet (NUV; 230–290 nm) sensitivity (22.5 mag, 5 σ , at 900 s). ULTRASAT conduct the first wide-field survey transient variable NUV sources revolutionize our ability study hot Universe. explore new parameter space energy timescale (months-long light curves minutes cadence),...

In this White Paper we present and discuss a concrete proposal for the consistent interpretation of Dark Matter searches at colliders in direct detection experiments. Based on specific implementation simplified models vector axial-vector mediator exchanges, demonstrates how two search strategies can be compared an equal footing.
