  1. 1. Characterization of the Spin of Dark Matter at the LHC

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Tom Ingebretsen Carlson; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The potential for characterizing the spin and mass of dark matter at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) given a 5 sigma confidence level discovery has been studied. The search for dark matter is one of the big open question in particle physics as observations predict 84 percent of the matter in the universe to be dark matter, however no detection has been made.

    Abstract : An evaluation of how sensitive some ATLAS searches for new physics are to a new beyond standard model (BSM) vector-like quark (VLQ) and a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson (pNGB) scalar. This was done by simulating a signal containing these new particles and making a recast of it onto existing verified ATLAS searches for new physics at center-of-mass (CM) energy of 13 TeV (Run 2) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
