1. 1. Validation of simulation with enhanced kaon production to investigate kaon background for LDMX

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Lisa Andersson Loman; [2023]
   Keywords : Dark matter; experimental physics; simulations; kaons; particle physics; LDMX; background studies; mörk materia; partikelfysik; kaoner; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Dark matter is one of our universe’s largest mysteries and very little is known about what it is. One of the dominating theories, that it originates from an early universe thermal relic, indicates that it has interaction with the Standard Model. READ MORE

3. 2. Complementarity of high energy and high intensity experiments for dark photon benchmarks

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Joshua Greaves; [2022]
   Keywords : Dark matter; LDMX; Dark photon; Complementarity; Snowmass; Relic density; Thermal relic; Relic abundance; Cross section; Constraints; Limits; Minimal models; Energy frontier; Intensity frontier; Madgraph; Madanalysis; Vector mediated; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Physical phenomena that are unexplained by the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics, are the subject of the area of research known as physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM). BSM physics contains many Dark Matter (DM) theories which have emerged; from particles such as axions, neutrinos, and Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), to primordial black holes and others.

4. 3. Can Feebly Interacting Massive Particles (FIMP) constitute Dark Matter?

   University essay from KTH/Fysik

   Author : Grandharva Appagere; [2021]
   Keywords : Dark Matter; Higgs¬portal; Freeze¬-in mechanism; FIMP; C-W Mechanism; Mörk materia; Higgsportal; frys-in-mekanism; FIMP; C-W mekanism;

   Abstract : In this study, we investigate the feasibility of Feebly Interacting Massive particles (FIMP) as possible candidates to constitute the observed Dark Matter abundance in the universe. FIMPs are particles that couple very feebly with known particles in the Standard Model (SM). READ MORE

5. 4. Study of Dark Matter Models in Astrophysics and Particle Physics

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Isabelle John; [2019]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : From astrophysical and cosmological observations, it is known that most of the matter in the Universe is dark. This matter could be explainable by new particles, not included in the Standard Model of Particle Physics. READ MORE
