We assess the current coverage and the future discovery potential of LHC searches for heavy Higgs bosons decaying into long-lived particles (LLPs), focusing primarily on the production of pairs of LLPs with hadronic final states. These…
In the context of prospective studies for searches of new physics at the LHC Run 3, this paper investigates the relevance of using top quarks produced from new long-lived particles, and detected in the tracker volume of the ATLAS and CMS…
In this work we explore the intriguing connections between searches for long-lived particles (LLPs) at the LHC and early universe cosmology. We study the non-thermal production of ultra-relativistic particles (i.e. dark radiation) in the…
We consider a dark sector containing a pair of almost degenerate states coupled to the Standard Model through a dark photon mediator. This set-up constitutes a simple realization of the inelastic dark matter scenario. The heaviest dark…
The High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) is expected to deliver an integrated luminosity of up to 3000 fb$^{-1}$. The very high instantaneous luminosity will lead to about 200 proton-proton collisions per bunch crossing (pileup)…
NLSP - LSP decays could have dramatic influence on SUSY phenomenology at LHC. NLSP could have significant lifetime and could be charged. In at least two scenarios detectors must be used in a special way. They were not optimized for…
The search for physics beyond the Standard Model at the Large Hadron Collider is expanding to include unconventional signatures such as long-lived particles. This mini-review assesses the prospects for detecting electrically charged…
A search is presented for pair-production of long-lived neutral particles using 33 fb$^{-1}$ of $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV proton-proton collision data, collected during 2016 by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. This search focuses on a topology in…
Search for BSM phenomena is one of the fundamental goals of the LHC experiments. Many BSM models foresee long-lived particles which decay far from the production vertex and a big effort has been done both by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations…
We study the phenomenology of a supersymmetric scenario where the next-to-lightest superparticle is the lighter stau and long-lived due to a very weakly coupled lightest superparticle, such as the gravitino. We investigate the LHC…
We present a novel framework capable of addressing the dark matter problem through freeze-in and freeze-out mechanisms, separately or together, depending on the region of the parameter space considered. In the dark matter dynamics, the…
In this paper, we propose a dedicated forward detector, FOREHUNT (FORward~Experiment~for~HUNdred~TeV), for 100 TeV FCC-hh for the detection of light long-lived particles (LLP) coming from $B$-meson decay. We calculate the signal acceptance…
In this paper we study the constraints on MSSM R-Parity violating decays when the Lightest Superpartner (LSP) is moderately long lived. In this scenario the LSP vertex displacement may be observed at the LHC. We compute limits on the RPV…
The LHCb experiment is dedicated to the study of the $c-$ and $b-$hadron decays, including long-lived particles such as $K_s$ and strange baryons ($\Lambda^0$, $\Xi^-$, etc... ). These kind of particles are difficult to reconstruct by the…
In the coming year, the Large Hadron Collider will begin colliding protons at energies nearly an order of magnitude beyond the current frontier. The LHC will, of course, provide unprecedented opportunities to discover new particle physics.…
We propose a fundamental shift in the search for beyond the Standard Model long-lived particles (LLPs) at high-luminosity hadron colliders by prioritizing physical background suppression over traditional inner tracking. We introduce…
A search for heavy long-lived multi-charged particles is performed using the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Data with an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ collected in 2015 and 2016 from proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV are…
Many recent efforts at the LHC have been made to search for new particles that do not decay promptly but are instead long-lived. This has been done via many different exotic signatures, including searches performed at ATLAS for displaced…
In this work, we explore a conversion-driven freeze-out scenario, where the next-to-lightest stable particle (NLSP) sets the dark matter (DM) abundance through the process ``NLSP SM $\leftrightarrow$ DM SM". Although DM is produced via a…
We present the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) discovery potential in the $Z'$ and heavy neutrino sectors of a $U(1)_{B-L}$ enlarged Standard Model also encompassing three heavy Majorana neutrinos. This model exhibits novel signatures at the…
