We study the production of Beyond the Standard Model light scalar states in association with a vector boson ($Vh_2$, with $V = W^\pm, Z$) at the LHC. We consider the scenario where the Standard Model scalar sector is extended by two real…
A Higgs-like resonance with a mass of approximately 750 GeV has recently been observed at the LHC in its diphoton decay. If this state is not simply a statistical fluctuation which will disappear with more data, it will have important…
We investigate an extension of the left-right symmetric model featuring an additional non-abelian $SU(2)$ gauge symmetry. The particle content is augmented by one generation of vector-like leptons transforming under the fundamental…
We classify new physics signals in coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CE$\nu$NS) processes induced by $^8$B solar neutrinos in multi-ton xenon dark matter (DM) detectors. Our analysis focuses on vector and scalar interactions in…
Many models containing particles which are candidates for dark matter, assume the standard model particles and the dark matter candidates are mediated by a spin-0 particle. At the LHC, one can use these models for dark matter searches. One…

The thermal relic abundance of Dark Matter motivates the existence of new electroweak scale particles, independent of naturalness considerations. However, most unnatural Dark Matter models do not ensure the presence of new particles charged…
We study a dark matter model constructed by extending the standard model with an inert $\mathrm{SU}(2)_\mathrm{L}$ sextuplet scalar of hypercharge 1/2. The sextuplet components are split by the quartic couplings between the sextuplet and…
A renormalizable UV model for Axion-Like Particles (ALPs) or hidden photons, that may explain the dark matter usually involves a dark Higgs field which is a singlet under the standard model (SM) gauge group. The dark sector can couple to…
A consistent model for vector mediators to dark matter needs to be anomaly-free and include a scalar mode from mass generation. For the leading U(1) extensions we review the structure and constraints, including kinetic mixing at loop level.…
The discovery potential of both singlet and doublet vector-like leptons (VLLs) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) as well as at the not-so-far future muon and electron machines is explored. The focus is on a single production channel for…
Dark sectors with confining gauge interactions can provide both simple dark matter candidates and striking signals at colliders. We recast Large Hadron Collider searches for two different signatures of dark mesons that arise from a…
Light scalar Dark Matter with scalar couplings to matter is expected within several scenarios to induce variations in the fundamental constants of nature. Such variations can be searched for, among other ways, via atomic spectroscopy.…
Dark Matter (DM) comprising particles in the mass range of a few MeV to GeV is waiting to be explored, given the many theoretical models accommodating cosmological abundance. We hereby propose an experiment with the LHC proton beam of 7 TeV…
We argue that the possible new heavy boson resonance of 750 GeV is an ideal candidate as a twin particle of the 125 GeV scalar boson, both emerging from the large mixing of the scalar toponium and scalar gluonium. The twin pseudoscalar…
Experiments at electron-positron colliders can search for dark matter particle pair-production in association with a photon. We estimate the sensitivity of this search at the proposed International Linear Collider (ILC), under a variety of…
A dark Z is a massive Abelian gauge boson which is coupled to the Standard Model through both kinetic and mass mixing with the electroweak sector. We study the phenomenology of the dark Z at an energy-frontier electron-positron collider,…

A weak singlet charged scalar exists in many new physics models beyond the Standard Model. The discovery potential of the singlet charged scalar is explored at future lepton colliders, e.g. the CEPC, ILC-350 and ILC-500. We demonstrate that…
We show that new physics can show up in dileptonic events through its radiative contributions to the dilepton invariant mass, leading to unique "monocline" features in $m_{\ell\ell}$, as well as the angular distribution of the leptons. We…
