The minimal renormalizable realization of $SO(10)$ model is an intriguing candidate for realistic extension of the Standard model. As the $SO(10)$ symmetry breaking is caused by the adjoint representation, the dominant GUT-scale-influencing gravitational effects are suppressed allowing for significantly improved proton lifetime calculations.

We propose a chiral gauge theory in which the Standard Model (SM) quarks and leptons are composite fields. The theory is based on an $SU(15)$ gauge symmetry that confines the preons and predicts exactly 3 generations of SM fermions. Certain vectorlike quarks and leptons are also formed, and may be within the reach of the LHC. We discuss the running of the SM gauge couplings to 3-loop order,...

We explore proton decay in a class of realistic supersymmetric flipped $SU(5)$ models supplemented by a $U(1)_R$ symmetry which plays an essential role in implementing hybrid inflation. Two distinct neutrino mass models, based on inverse seesaw and type I seesaw, are identified, with the latter arising from the breaking of $U(1)_R$ by nonrenormalizable superpotential terms. Depending on the...

You are probably aware that the Standard Model can fit into su(5), so(10) and Pati-Salam. But did you know it can also fit into: su(4)+sp(4)+su(5)+su(2)+su(2). Probably not. Should you care? Also probably not. But what if I said, that without adding additional fermions (except 3 RHN), then there are only 340 semi-simple algebras the SM can actually fit into. This talk will tell the story...

We use use statistical inference to derive the mass composition of Pierre Auger Open Data at different energies. We simulate showers for all elements between proton and iron and use them to train a set of classifiers, each one trained to distinguish set of primaries by their 𝑋𝑚𝑎𝑥 distributions. By unfolding this data, we can obtain the most probable mass composition distribution for each...

Parton showers are part and parcel of particle phenomenology, but what in the case of a confining dark sector with no light quarks below the confinement scale? Then the only available hadronic states are ‘glueballs’, composite gluon states. To date, there have been very few quantitative studies of dark shower signatures with glueball final states, despite the fact they commonly appear in...

Anomaly detection with autoencoders is a popular method to search for new physics in a model-agnostic manner.

In this talk, we try to understand these "black boxes" by designing mimickers with a small number of energy flow polynomials as inputs.
These mimickers perform comparably to the autoencoder when ordering background events, but also match the anomaly detection capabilities of the... -

In this work we consider FCNC constraints on concurrent dark vector boson models simulatneously from B and K decays. Both the dark photon and the dark Z generate FCNC processes through loops due to kinetic mixing with the SM photon and Z boson respectively. Previously, the FCNC amplitudes with the dark photon and dark Z decays were calculated without the dipole term in the amplitude. Also,...
