Abstract

We consider a nonsupersymmetric extension of the standard model with a family symmetry based on D{sub 6}xZ{sub 2}xZ{sub 2}, where one of Z{sub 2}'s is exactly conserved. This Z{sub 2} forbids the tree-level neutrino masses and simultaneously ensures the stability of cold dark matter candidates. From the assumption that cold dark matter is fermionic we can single out the D{sub 6} singlet right-handed neutrino as the best cold dark matter candidate. We find that an inert charged Higgs with a mass between 300 and 750 GeV decays mostly into an electron (or a positron) with a large missing energy, where the missing energy is carried away by the cold dark matter candidate. This will be a clean signal at LHC.

Cold nuclear matter effects on J/psi and UPSILON production at energies available at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC)

Vogt, R. - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

The charmonium yields are expected to be considerably suppressed if a deconfined medium is formed in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. In addition, the bottomonium states, with the possible exception of the UPSILON(1S) state, are also expected to be suppressed in heavy-ion collisions. However, in proton-nucleus collisions the quarkonium production cross sections, even those of the UPSILON(1S), are also suppressed. These 'cold nuclear matter' effects need to be accounted for before signals of the high-density QCD medium can be identified in the measurements made in nucleus-nucleus collisions. We identify two cold nuclear matter effects important for midrapidity quarkonium production: 'nuclear absorption', typicallymore »« less

Nonzero trilinear parameter in the minimal supergravity model: Dark matter and collider signals at the Fermilab Tevatron and CERN LHC

Chattopadhyay, Utpal ; Das, Debottam ; Datta, Amitava ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

Phenomenologically viable and interesting regions of parameter space in the minimal supergravity (mSUGRA) model with small m{sub 0} and small m{sub 1/2} consistent with the WMAP data on dark matter relic density and the bound on the mass of the lightest Higgs scalar m{sub h}>114 GeV from the Linear Electron Positron Collider open up if the rather ad hoc assumption A{sub 0}=0, where A{sub 0} is the common trilinear soft breaking parameter, employed in most of the existing analyses is relaxed. Since this region corresponds to relatively light squarks and gluinos which are likely to be probed extensively in themore »« less

Mixed sneutrinos, dark matter, and the CERN LHC

Thomas, Zachary ; Tucker-Smith, David ; Weiner, Neal ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We study the phenomenology of supersymmetric models in which gauge-singlet scalars mix with the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) sneutrinos through weak-scale A terms. After reviewing the constraints on mixed-sneutrino dark matter from measurements of {omega}{sub CDM} and from direct-detection experiments, we explore mixed-sneutrino signatures relevant to the LHC. For a mixed-sneutrino lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) and a right-handed slepton next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle (NLSP), decays of the lightest neturalino can produce opposite-sign, same-flavor (OSSF) dileptons with an invariant-mass distribution shifted away from the kinematic end point. This signature is possible for parameters that lead to a cosmologically viable mixed-sneutrino LSP.more »« less

Complementarity of gamma-ray and CERN LHC searches for neutralino dark matter in the focus point region

Moulin, E. ; Jacholkowska, A. ; Moultaka, G. ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We study the complementarity between the indirect detection of dark matter with {gamma}-rays in H.E.S.S. and the supersymmetry searches with ATLAS at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the focus point region within the mSUGRA framework. The sensitivity of the central telescope of the H.E.S.S. II experiment with an energy threshold of {approx}20 GeV is investigated. We show that the detection of {gamma}-ray fluxes of O(10{sup -12}) cm{sup -2} s{sup -1} with H.E.S.S. II covers a substantial part of the focus point region which may be more difficult for LHC experiments. Despite the presence of multi-TeV scalars, we show thatmore »« less

Supersymmetric interpretation of the Egret GeV anomaly, Xenon-10 dark matter search limits, and the CERN LHC

Baer, Howard ; Summy, Heaya ; Belyaev, Alexander - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

The observation of the Egret experiment of an excess of diffuse gamma rays with energies above E{sub {gamma}}=1 GeV has previously been interpreted in the context of the minimal supergravity model (mSUGRA) as coming from neutralino annihilation into mainly b-quarks in the galactic halo, with neutralino mass in the vicinity of 50-70 GeV. We observe that, in order to obtain the correct relic abundance of neutralinos in accord with WMAP measurements, the corresponding neutralino-proton direct detection (DD) rates should be in excess of recent limits from the Xenon-10 collaboration. While it does not appear possible to satisfy the Egret, WMAP,more »« less
