We report on recent progress and next steps in the design of proposed MATHUSLA Long Lived Particle (LLP) detector for HL-LHC as part Snowmass 2021 process. Our understanding backgrounds has greatly improved, aided by detailed simulation studies, significant R&D been performed designing scintillator detectors their performance. The collaboration is track to complete a Technical Design Report, there are many opportunities interested new members contribute towards goal constructing time...
In order to stimulate new engagement and trigger some concrete studies in areas where further work would be beneficial towards fully understanding the physics potential of an $e^+e^-$ Higgs / Top Electroweak factory, we propose define a set focus topics. The general reasoning proposed topics are described this document.
Long-lived particles (LLPs) are highly motivated signals of physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) with great discovery potential and unique experimental challenges. The LLP search programme made advances during Run 2 Large Hadron Collider (LHC), but many important regions signal space remain unexplored. Dedicated triggers crucial to improve searches, their development expansion is necessary for full exploitation new data. public discussion has therefore been a relevant theme in recent...
We report on recent progress in the design of proposed MATHUSLA Long Lived Particle (LLP) detector for HL-LHC, updating information original Letter Intent (LoI), see CDS:LHCC-I-031, arXiv:1811.00927. A suitable site has been identified at LHC Point 5 that is closer to CMS Interaction (IP) than assumed LoI. The decay volume increased from 20 m 25 height. Engineering studies have made order locate much below ground, bringing even IP. With these changes, a 100 x same physics reach large c$\tau$...
In this Letter of Intent (LOI) we propose the construction MATHUSLA (MAssive Timing Hodoscope for Ultra-Stable neutraL pArticles), a dedicated large-volume displaced vertex detector HL-LHC on surface above ATLAS or CMS. Such detector, which can be built using existing technologies with reasonable budget in time upgrade, could search neutral long-lived particles (LLPs) up to several orders magnitude better sensitivity than CMS, while also acting as cutting-edge cosmic ray telescope at CERN...
In certain Supersymmetry (SUSY) breaking scenarios, characteristic signatures can be expected which would not necessarily found in generic SUSY searches for events containing high-pT multi-jets and large missing transverse energy. this document, the response of ATLAS detector to involving photons may or appear point back primary collision vertex long-lived charged sleptons R-hadrons is presented. Such processes often have advantage small Standard Model backgrounds their observation could...
Various theories beyond the Standard Model predict unique signatures which are difficult to reconstruct and for estimating background rates is also a challenge. Signatures from displaced decays anywhere inner detector muon spectrometer, as well those of new particles with fractional or multiple value charge electron high-mass stable charged all examples experimentally demanding signatures. This review focuses on most recent results using LHC pp collision data at 13 TeV collected by ATLAS detector.
We discuss a new method to determine the low-energy couplings of $ΔS=1$ weak Hamiltonian in $ε$-regime. It relies on matching topological poles $1/m^2$ three-point functions two pseudoscalar densities and four-fermion operator computed lattice QCD, same observables Chiral Effective Theory. present results NLO computation chiral perturbation theory these correlation together with some preliminary numerical results.
With the current experiments at particle accelerators, no search strategy will be able to observe decay of neutral long-lived particles with masses above GeV and lifetimes limit set by Big Bang Nucleosynthesis, cτ ∼ 10^7 − 10^8 m. The MATHUSLA detector concept (MAssive Timing Hodoscope for Ultra-Stable neutraL pArticles) presented. It can implemented on surface ATLAS or CMS detectors in time high-luminosity LHC operations, up BBN limit. large area allows make important contributions also...
