This white paper addresses the hypothesis of light sterile neutrinos based on recent anomalies observed in neutrino experiments and latest astrophysical data.
This paper describes the physics case for a new fixed target facility at CERN SPS. The SHiP (Search Hidden Particles) experiment is intended to hunt in largely unexplored domain of very weakly interacting particles with masses below Fermi scale, inaccessible LHC experiments, and study tau neutrino physics. same proton beam setup can be used later look decays tau-leptons lepton flavour number non-conservation, $\tau\to 3\mu$ search weakly-interacting sub-GeV dark matter candidates. We discuss...
We analyse the process of reheating Universe in electroweak theory where Higgs field plays a role inflaton. estimate maximal temperature and fix initial conditions for radiation-dominated phase expansion framework Standard Model (SM) nuMSM -- minimal extension SM by three right-handed singlet fermions. show that inflationary epoch is followed matter dominated stage related to oscillations. investigate energy transfer from Higgs-inflaton particles radiation starts at T_r~(3-15)*10^{13} GeV,...
The Telescope Array (TA) experiment, located in the western desert of Utah,USA, is designed for observation extensive air showers from extremely high energy cosmic rays. experiment has a surface detector array surrounded by three fluorescence detectors to enable simultaneous detection shower particles at ground level and photons along track. TA started full hybrid March, 2008. In this article we describe design technical features detector.
We present a comprehensive review of keV-scale sterile neutrino Dark Matter, collecting views and insights from all disciplines involved - cosmology, astrophysics, nuclear, particle physics in each case viewed both theoretical experimental/observational perspectives. After reviewing the role active neutrinos physics, we focus on context Matter puzzle. Here, first motivation for based challenges tensions purely cold scenarios. then round out discussion by critically summarizing known...
We examine the theoretical motivations for long-lived particle (LLP) signals at LHC in a comprehensive survey of Standard Model (SM) extensions. LLPs are common prediction wide range theories that address unsolved fundamental mysteries such as naturalness, dark matter, baryogenesis and neutrino masses, represent natural generic possibility physics beyond SM (BSM). In most cases LLP lifetime can be treated free parameter from $\mu$m scale up to Big Bang Nucleosynthesis limit $\sim 10^7$m....
Abstract High energy collisions at the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (LHC) produce a large number of particles along beam collision axis, outside acceptance existing LHC experiments. The proposed Forward Physics Facility (FPF), to be located several hundred meters from ATLAS interaction point and shielded by concrete rock, will host suite experiments probe standard model (SM) processes search for physics beyond (BSM). In this report, we review status civil engineering plans explore...
The Baksan Experiment on Sterile Transitions (BEST) was designed to investigate the deficit of electron neutrinos ν_{e} observed in previous gallium-based radiochemical measurements with high-intensity neutrino sources, commonly referred as "gallium anomaly," which could be interpreted evidence for oscillations between and sterile (ν_{s}) states. A 3.414-MCi ^{51}Cr source placed at center two nested Ga volumes were made production ^{71}Ge through charged current reaction,...
It is shown by an explicit calculation that the excitations about self-accelerating cosmological solution of Dvali-Gabadaze-Porrati model contain a ghost mode. This raises serious doubts viability this solution. Our analysis reveals similarity between quadratic theory for perturbations around universe and Abelian gauge with two St\"uckelberg fields.
We study the phenomenology of a realistic version chaotic inflationary model, which can be fully and directly explored in particle physics experiments. The inflaton mixes with Standard Model Higgs boson via scalar potential, no additional scales above electroweak scale are present model. inflaton-to-Higgs coupling is responsible for both reheating Early Universe production collisions. find allowed range light mass, 270 MeV<~m_chi<~1.8 GeV, discuss ways to inflaton. most promising two-body...
We show that introducing $R^2$-term makes the Higgs-inflation and Higgs-dilaton inflation consistent models: strong coupling energy scales in scalar, gauge gravity sectors all are lifted up to Planck scale.
A bstract We review and revise phenomenology of the GeV-scale heavy neutral leptons (HNLs). extend previous analyses by including more channels HNLs production decay provide with refined treatment, QCD corrections for masses $$ \mathcal{O} <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mi>O</mml:mi> </mml:math> (1) GeV. summarize relevance individual different masses, resolving a few discrepancies in literature.

It has been recently suggested~\cite{Berezhiani:2015yta} that emerging tension between cosmological parameter values derived in high-redshift (CMB anisotropy) and low-redshift (cluster counts, Hubble constant) measurements can be reconciled a model which contains subdominant fraction of dark matter decaying after recombination. We check the against CMB Planck data. find lensing anisotropies by large-scale structure gives strong extra constraints on this model, limiting as $F<8\%$ at...
First results from the BEST Collaboration searching for short-baseline neutrino oscillations to sterile neutrinos with a high-intensity ${}^{51}$Cr monoenergetic source reaffirm that so-called gallium anomaly, deficit in electron neutrinos, persists. $4\ensuremath{\sigma}$ deficits were observed ${}^{71}$Ge production rates at two different distance scales, which could be interpreted as between an and hypothetical neutrino. The are consistent mass squared difference above about 0.5...

Recently, the Baksan Experiment on Sterile Transitions (BEST) has presented results [1] confirming gallium anomaly---a lack of electron neutrinos ${\ensuremath{\nu}}_{e}$ at calibrations SAGE [2,3] and GALLEX [4]---at statistical significance exceeding $5\ensuremath{\sigma}$. This result is consistent with explanation anomaly as neutrino oscillations into a sterile neutrino, ${\ensuremath{\nu}}_{s}$. Within this explanation, BEST experiment itself provides strongest evidence for among all...
