If electro-weak symmetry is broken by a new strongly interacting sector, new physics will probably manifest itself in gauge boson scattering at the LHC. The relevant dynamics is well described in terms of an effective lagrangian. We discuss…
We present sensitivity of LHC differential cross-section measurements to so-called "stealth dark matter" scenarios occurring in an SU(N) dark gauge group, where constituents are charged under the Standard Model and N=2 or 4. The low-energy…
The majority of the matter in the universe is still unidentified and under investigation by both direct and indirect means. Many experiments searching for the recoil of dark-matter particles off target nuclei in underground laboratories…
We explore the viability of detecting a leptophilic scalar dark matter at the ILC in a simplified model approach. We present the constraints on the couplings of scalar dark matter with the standard model fermions ensuing from the relic…
As the LHC continues to search for new weakly interacting particles, it is important to remember that the search is strongly motivated by the existence of dark matter. In view of a possible positive signal, it is essential to ask whether…
We present a search for new scalar bosons predicted by the Inert Doublet Model at an $e^+e^-$ machine with centre-of-mass energies of 240 and 365 GeV. Within this model, four additional scalar bosons ($H,\, A,\, H^+$ and $H^-$) are…
Semi-visible jets arise from a hypothetical, strongly interacting ``dark sector'' -- a dark counterpart of quantum chromodynamics whose partial decays back to Standard Model particles introduce new types of collider BSM signature. CMS and…
Heavy resonances are an integral part of many extensions of the Standard Model. The discovery of such heavy resonances are a primary goal at the LHC and future hadron colliders. When a particle with TeV-scale mass decays into…
We study the interactions of a new spin-1 mediator that connects the Standard Model to dark matter. We constrain its decay channels using monojet and monophoton searches, as well as searches for resonances in dijet, dilepton and diboson…
Recently the CDMS collaboration has reported an excess of events in the signal region of a search for dark matter scattering with Silicon nuclei. Three events on an expected background of 0.4 have a significance of about 2 sigma, and it is…
We explore the gravitational wave probes of a two-component dark matter framework, consisting of an $SU(2)_L$ triplet scalar and a Standard Model singlet fermion. The triplet scalar dark matter typically remains underabundant in the region…
Discovering dark matter at high energy colliders continues to be a compelling and well-motivated possibility. Weakly interacting massive particles are a particularly interesting class in which the dark matter particles interact with the…
We argue for the plausibility of a broad class of vectorlike confining gauge theories at the TeV scale which interact with the Standard Model predominantly via gauge interactions. These theories have a rich phenomenology at the LHC if…
We propose a novel dark matter (DM) detection strategy for the models with non-minimal dark sector. The main ingredients in the underlying DM scenario are a boosted DM particle and a heavier dark sector state. The relativistic DM impinged…
In this work we study a scalar field dark matter model with mass of the order of 100 MeV. We assume dark matter is produced in the process $e^-+e^+\to \phi +\phi^*+\gamma$, that, in fact, could be a background for the standard process…
Light new particles with masses below 10 keV, often considered as a plausible extension of the Standard Model, will be emitted from the solar interior, and can be detected on the Earth with a variety of experimental tools. Here we analyze…
The Large Hadron electron Collider (LHeC) has been designed to push the field of deep inelastic scattering to the high energy and intensity frontier using an intense electron beam with a proton beam from the High Luminosity-Large Hadron…
Despite the fact that dark matter constitutes one of the cornerstones of the standard cosmological paradigm, its existence has so far only been inferred from astronomical observations and its microscopic nature remains elusive. Theoretical…
The focus on dark matter search has expanded to include low-mass particles such as axions or axion-like particles, and novel theoretical schemes extending the phenomenological landscape, within QCD and beyond, also garnered additional…
Rich and complex dark sectors are abundant in particle physics theories. Here we propose performing spectroscopy of the mass structure of dark sectors via mono-photon searches at lepton colliders. The energy of the mono-photon tracks the…
