  1. 1. 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.

  2. 2. Future diagnosis of sepsis : Evaluating the mNGS approach by using the MinION device

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Alicia Diaz Rivera; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sepsis is an irregular systemic response to an infection, in which a pathogen or some of its component(s)reaches the bloodstream of the host or sterile tissue, triggering a disproportionate immune reaction. The first three hours are critical in the diagnosis of sepsis, in order to ensure an effective treatment with less impact on the patient. READ MORE

  3. 3. Studies of Dark Showers for Present and Future Colliders

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

    Author : Nicoline Krogh Hemme; [2022]
    Keywords : high-energy particle physics; dark matter; collider physics; beyond the standard model; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this work we explore a strongly-interacting dark sector with a Z’ portal to the Standard Model. We focus on the dark shower phenomenology and their semi-visible jet signatures with a strong emphasis on first principles of the theory. READ MORE

  4. 4. 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. 5. Constraints on the Kaluza-Klein Photon as a Dark Matter Candidate from the IceCube Collaboration Results

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Miquel Colom i Bernadich; [2019]
    Keywords : dark matter; WIMP; Kaluza-Klein; IceCube; neutrinos; muon neutrinos; muons;

    Abstract : New constraints on the scattering cross sections of the Kaluza Klein photon as a darkmatter candidate, its annihilation rate in the Sun and the resulting muon flux on Earth are derived.For this purpose, data collected in the IceCube Neutrino Observatory during 532 days of exposurein the austral winters between 2011 and 2014 have been analyzed with Poisson confidence intervals (J.
