New pseudo-scalars, often called axion-like particles (ALPs), abound in model-building and are often associated with the breaking of a new symmetry. Traditional searches and indirect bounds are limited to light axions, typically in or below…

We propose a new type of search for a pseudoscalar particle $\eta$ pair produced via an off-shell Higgs, $pp\to h^*\to \eta\eta$. The search is motivated by a composite Higgs model in which the $\eta$ is extremely narrow and decays almost…
In this work, prospects to probe an overlooked facet of axion-like particles (ALPs) -- their potential couplings to sterile neutrinos -- are presented. We found that mono-photon searches have the potential to constrain ALP couplings to…
