For almost a quarter of a century, the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider was the centerpiece of the world's high energy physics program - beginning operation in December of 1985 until it was overtaken by LHC in 2011. The aim of this…
The study of the ultra-high energy cosmic rays, neutrinos and gamma rays is one of the most important challenges in astrophysics. The low fluxes of these particles do not allow one to detect them directly. The detection is performed by the…
Millicharged particles (mCPs) are a well-motivated target for far-forward searches at the Large Hadron Collider. We identify and quantify a significant new source of these particles: secondary production in hadronic and electromagnetic…
