In this talk, we introduce a fermionic dark-matter model whose interactions with the Standard Model proceed via vector and scalar mediators. We will show that the model exhibits a rich dark matter phenomenology, while also possessing a constrained parameter space that can be further probed by future experiments.
We studied a Standard Model (SM) extension that provides a bicomponent dark matter scenario. The scalar sector of the SM is extended by adding an inert SU(2) doublet and an inert SU(2) triplet, as well as a SU(2) triplet with hypercharge Y=1 to generate the light neutrino masses through type-II seesaw mechanism. The contribution of the two dark matter candidates to the total dark matter...
The PICO collaboration operates the world’s most sensitive bubble chambers for dark matter searches, setting some of the strongest constraints on spin-dependent WIMP–nucleon interactions. As the traditional WIMP parameter space becomes increasingly constrained, attention is turning toward light and exotic candidates, including fermionic and vector dark matter with absorptive (exothermic)...
SIMP dark matter can be realized through low-energy $SU(N_c)$ effective theories, where dark matter consists of the Goldstone bosons associated with the spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry, the dark pions. The restoration of this symmetry in the early universe may proceed through a first-order phase transition (FOPT), capable of generating a stochastic background of gravitational waves...
We investigate the nature of the electroweak phase transition (EWPT) in a minimal $Z_6$-symmetric extension of the Standard Model, featuring a fermionic dark matter candidate ($\psi_L,\psi_R$) and a real scalar singlet ($\phi$). Selecting benchmark points that satisfy both the observed dark matter relic density and direct detection constraints, we analyze whether the EWPT is first-order in...
The Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) is one of the simplest and best motivated extensions of the Standard Model (SM), which expands the scalar sector. By introducing a second Higgs doublet, it provides new sources of CP violation that are relevant for baryogenesis and potential explanations for flavor anomalies observed in B-meson decays. In this model, the Yukawa couplings scale with the...
This study presents projection results for the search of non-resonant Higgs boson pair production via vector-boson fusion (VBF) in the boosted $HH \to b\bar{b}b\bar{b}$ final state, using the upgraded ATLAS detector at the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). The analysis extends the latest Run 2 results obtained with 140 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV to HL-LHC conditions...
We perform a feasibility study to probe dark matter (DM) production at the LHC within a $U(1)_L$ scotogenic model. The study is conducted using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo numerical method, considering the viable parameter space of the model allowed by experimental constraints such as neutrino oscillation data, the Higgs to invisible branching fraction, and DM observables. The production of...
Luminosity is a precision measurement, for the CMS experiment. During the Run 3, the uncertainty expected in the luminosity for each year is expected to be $\lesssim 1\%$. However, with the detector aging, some issues with the electronics readout may occur. For luminometers as PLT with redundant measurements, this issues may not affect strongly the central measurement of the luminosity, but...

The MUonE experiment is designed to extract the hadronic contribution to the electromagnetic coupling in the spacelike region $\Delta \alpha_{had}(t)$ from elastic $e\mu$ scattering. The leading-order hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon $g−2$, $a^{HVP;LO}_{μ}$, can then be obtained from a weighted integral over $\Delta \alpha_{had}(t)$. This, however, requires knowledge of...
The Standard Model (SM) remains the most successful framework for describing particle interactions, yet it leaves key questions unresolved, including possible Lepton Flavor Universality (LFU) violation. Many proposed extensions of the SM predict new particles that couple preferentially to tau leptons, such as S1 and U1 leptoquarks, $ Z'_{B-L}$ bosons, and Type-II Two-Higgs-Doublet Models....

We study the possibility of obtaining the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics as an effective theory of a more fundamental one, whose electroweak sector includes two non-universal local U(1) gauge groups, with the chiral anomaly cancellation taking place through an interplay among families. As a result of the spontaneous symmetry breaking, a massive gauge boson Z' arises, which couples...

We investigate the recently proposed gauge symmetry
$SU(3)_C \otimes SU(3)_L \otimes SU(3)_R \otimes U(1)_X$,
which naturally embeds both the Left--Right symmetric model and the 3-3-1 framework as subgroups.
Within this unified setting, we introduce four families of leptons and quarks, and perform a systematic study of their contributions to gauge anomaly cancellation for a general value...
We investigate the lepton-flavor-violating (LFV) process $e^- e^+ \to e^- e^+ e\,\mu$ (with $e=e^\pm$ and $\mu=\mu^\pm$) at future circular electron--positron colliders, probing the effective $\gamma\gamma e\mu$ interaction via photon fusion.

Recent experimental results have reported mild deviations from Standard Model predictions in processes involving two photons in the final state, suggesting the possible presence of high-mass scalar resonances at the few-hundred-GeV scale. We investigate these anomalies within the framework of 3-3-1 models, a well-motivated class of extensions of the Standard Model. Focusing on the most...
The long-standing deviations observed in the ratios R(D) and R(D*), which probe lepton flavor universality in semileptonic B meson decays, have motivated extensive studies of new physics scenarios. In this work, we explore an explanation based on a singlet–triplet vector leptoquark model, featuring both $U_1$ and $U_3$ states. We perform a comprehensive fit to the most recent experimental data...
The class of quark-field phase redefinitions for the standard Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa phenomenological matrix, from the relevant up-bottom, top-down matrix elements to the top-bottom one, produce a phase value consistent with $\pi/2$. This value is derived from standard-model heavy-quark mass restrictions. These stem from the Yukawa and electroweak sector connections through 1)...

In non-central collisions, the anisotropic distribution of matter generates orbital angular momentum that induces significant vorticity in the medium, making the dynamics of particles within the QGP dependent not only on temperature and external fields but also on rotational effects. Such phenomena motivate the use of effective descriptions incorporating metrics analogous to curved spacetime,...

We investigate the quasinormal modes of several families of higher-dimensional regular black holes arising in gravitational theories that incorporate an infinite tower of higher-curvature corrections to Einstein gravity. Our analysis focuses on how the ringdown phase of gravitational waves for such regular black holes deviates from the predictions of General Relativity. We employ the...
Recent results from several experimental collaborations have reported deviations from the Standard Model predictions in di-photon final tates, suggesting the presence of intermediate scalar resonances above the electroweak scale. The wide variety of such anomalies can be naturally accommodated within extensions of the Standard Model that feature an enlarged scalar sector. In particular,...
Experimental measurements of this decay, made by the LHCb and CMS, show a deviation from the predictions of the Standard Model. We propose that this discrepancy can be explained by the existence of a dark sector that interacts with ordinary matter through a new mediator boson Z’.
Gravitational particle production in cosmology is a mechanism through which particles of different natures are produced during the very early universe. It is a general mechanism that explains how the universe became populated with the particles of the Standard Model after cosmic inflation and may also account for the origin of dark matter. In this work, we study the non-perturbative production...
We investigate the original Scotogenic model proposed by E. Ma, focusing on its radiative mechanism for neutrino mass generation. In particular, we compute the one-loop neutrino mass matrix, regularized through the cut-off method, and express the resulting masses in terms of the Yukawa couplings and scalar potential parameters. Using representative values commonly adopted in the literature, we...

We present a novel technique to determine the charge of b-tagged small-cone jets in the CMS experiment. While current heavy-flavour tagging algorithms are charge-agnostic, the ability to distinguish between b and anti-b (as well as c and anti-c) jets is essential for several physics analyses, including Higgs and di-Higgs production studies. The proposed method leverages the Particle...

We present a comparative analysis across...
Coherent elastic neutrino–nucleus scattering (CEνNS), predicted by the Standard Model, occurs when the momentum transfer satisfies $qR \leq 1$, causing the entire nucleus to respond coherently and the cross section to scale approximately with $N^2$ (the number of neutrons).

In this work, we propose an extension to the Standard Model (SM) by adding a new $SU(2)$ gauge symmetry, which is spontaneously broken by an extended scalar sector. Under this new symmetry, the left-handed fields of the SM remain invariant, while the right-handed ones form a doublet together with a new, heavier partner. In addition, a new fermionic field $S_R$ is introduced, which transforms...
