Reconstructing a light pseudoscalar in the Type-X two Higgs doublet model by Eung Jin Chun, Siddharth Dwivedi, Tanmoy Mondal, Biswarup Mukhopadhyaya

“…We investigate the detectability as well as reconstructibility of a light pseudoscalar particle A, of mass in the 50–60 GeV range, which is still allowed in a Type-X (lepton-specific) two-Higgs doublet scenario. Such a pseudoscalar can be pair-produced in the decay h→AA of the 125 GeV scalar h. …”

Leveraging on-shell interference to search for FCNCs of the top quark and the Z boson by Lucas Cremer, Johannes Erdmann, Roni Harnik, Jan Lukas Späh, Emmanuel Stamou

“…In general, we conclude that the interference-based approach has the potential to provide both competitive and complementary constraints to traditional multi-lepton searches and other strategies that have been proposed to search for tZc FCNCs.…”

Dark tridents at off-axis liquid argon neutrino detectors by André de Gouvêa, Patrick J. Fox, Roni Harnik, Kevin J. Kelly, Yue Zhang

“…Dark tridents are clean, distinct events where, like neutrino tridents, the scattering of a very weakly coupled particle leads to the production of a lepton-antilepton pair. Dark trident production occurs in models where long-lived dark-sector particles are produced along with the neutrinos in a beam-dump environment and interact with neutrino detectors downstream, producing an on-shell boson which decays into a pair of charged leptons. …”

Nuclear Matrix Elements for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay from Lattice QCD by Murphy, David, Detmold, William

“…One potential decay mode — neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) — is a particularly interesting target of experimental searches, since its observation would imply that the neutrino is a Majorana particle, demonstrate that lepton number conservation is violated in nature, and give further constraints on the neutrino masses and mixing angles. …”
