Proposal to use LHC general-purpose detectors in “beam-dump” measurements for long-lived particles by Bhaskar Dutta, Doojin Kim, Hyunyong Kim

“…For proof of principles, we consider the axion-like particles (ALPs) produced via the Primakoff process in the presence of their interaction with photons at CMS. We argue that the drift tube chambers and the ME0 module of the muon system can serve as detectors to record the photons from the ALP decay, demonstrating that assuming the background level can be controlled as discussed in this work, the resulting sensitivity reach is competitive due to their close proximity to the signal source points. …”

Polarization of thermal dilepton radiation by Florian Seck, Bengt Friman, Tetyana Galatyuk, Hendrik van Hees, Ralf Rapp, Enrico Speranza, Jochen Wambach

“…This allows, for the first time, independent tests of the longitudinal and transverse components of the virtual photon's selfenergy. While the low- and high-mass regions exhibit the expected limits of transverse and unpolarized photons, respectively, baryon-driven medium effects in the ρ-meson mass region create a marked longitudinal polarization that transits into a largely unpolarized emission from the quark-gluon plasma, thus providing a sensitive test of microscopic emission processes in QCD matter. …”

Dark matter annihilation via Breit-Wigner enhancement with heavier mediator by Yu Cheng, Shao-Feng Ge, Jie Sheng, Tsutomu T. Yanagida

“…However, a supermassive black hole can accelerate the dark matter particles to reactivate this resonant annihilation whose subsequent decay to photons leaves a unique signal. The running Fermi-LAT and the future COSI satellites can test this scenario.…”

Finding excesses in model parameter space by Kierthika Chathirathas, Torben Ferber, Felix Kahlhoefer, Alessandro Morandini
