On the validity of the effective field theory for dark matter searches at the LHC, part II: complete analysis for the s-channel

Journal Article Busoni, Giorgio ; De Simone, Andrea ; Gramling, Johanna ; ... - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We generalize in several directions our recent analysis of the limitations to the use of the effective field theory approach to study dark matter at the LHC. Firstly, we study the full list of operators connecting fermion DM to quarks and gluons, corresponding to integrating out a heavy mediator in the s-channel; secondly, we provide analytical results for the validity of the EFT description for both √s = 8 TeV and 14 TeV; thirdly, we make use of a MonteCarlo event generator approach to assess the validity of our analytical conclusions. We apply our results to revisit the current collidermore »« less

On the validity of the effective field theory for dark matter searches at the LHC part III: analysis for the t-channel

Journal Article Busoni, Giorgio ; Simone, Andrea De ; Jacques, Thomas ; ... - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We extend our recent analysis of the limitations of the effective field theory approach to studying dark matter at the LHC, by investigating the case in which Dirac dark matter couples to standard model quarks via t-channel exchange of a heavy scalar mediator. We provide analytical results for the validity of the effective field theory description, for both √s = 8 TeV and 14 TeV. We make use of a MonteCarlo event generator to assess the validity of our analytical conclusions. We also point out the general trend that in the regions where the effective field theory is valid, themore »« less

Perturbations of matter fields in the second-order gauge-invariant cosmological perturbation theory

Journal Article Nakamura, Kouji - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

To show that the general framework of the second-order gauge-invariant perturbation theory developed by K. Nakamura [Prog. Theor. Phys. 110, 723 (2003); Prog. Theor. Phys. 113, 481 (2005)] is applicable to a wide class of cosmological situations, some formulas for the perturbations of the matter fields are summarized within the framework of the second-order gauge-invariant cosmological perturbation theory in a four-dimensional homogeneous isotropic universe, which is developed in Prog. Theor. Phys. 117, 17 (2007). We derive the formulas for the perturbations of the energy-momentum tensors and equations of motion for a perfect fluid, an imperfect fluid, and a single scalarmore »« less

First cosmological constraint on the effective theory of dark matter-proton interactions

Journal Article Boddy, Kimberly K. ; Gluscevic, Vera - Physical Review D

We obtain here the first cosmological constraints on interactions between dark matter and protons within the formalism of nonrelativistic effective field theory developed for direct detection. For each interaction operator in the effective theory, parameterized by different powers of the relative velocity of the incoming particles, we use the Planck 2015 cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature, polarization, and lensing anisotropy to set upper limits on the scattering cross section for all dark matter masses above 15 keV. We postulate that for interactions associated with a stronger dependence on velocity, dark matter and baryons stay thermally coupled for longer, but themore »« less

Gauge-invariant analysis of perturbations in Chaplygin gas unified models of dark matter and dark energy

Journal Article Gorini, V ; Moschella, U ; Piattella, O F ; ... - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We exploit the gauge-invariant formalism to analyse the perturbative behaviour of two cosmological models based on the generalized Chaplygin gas describing both dark matter and dark energy in the present universe. In the first model we consider the generalized Chaplygin gas alone, while in the second one we add a baryon component to it. We extend our analysis also into the parameter range {alpha}>1, where the generalized Chaplygin gas sound velocity can be larger than that of light. In the first model we find that the matter power spectrum is compatible with the observed one only for {alpha}<10{sup -5}, whichmore »« less
