With the onset of next-generation neutrino experiments, neutrino physics is entering an era of high-precision measurements requiring a fast and efficient process for testing Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) hypotheses against experimental data. Current BSM calculations are addressed on a case-by-case basis with multiple event generators and constantly evolving nuclear models that render this...
Current discrepancy between the measurement and the prediction of the muon anomalous magnetic moment can be resolved in the presence of a long-range force created by ordinary atoms acting on the muon spin via axial-vector and/or pseudoscalar coupling, and requiring a tiny, $\mathcal{O}(10^{-13}\,{\rm eV})$ spin energy splitting between muon state polarized in the vertical direction. We suggest...
The search for longer-lived mediators/particles at FASER is commonly conducted using standard model particles that are produced at the ATLAS proton-proton interaction point (IP). Since there is a magnetic field close to the IP, charged particles are deflected away from the beamline, leaving only neutral particles. This limits BSM searches to only those that arise from neutral SM particles such...
