The physics of heavy gauge bosons

P Langacker - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2009 - APS
The U (1)′ symmetry associated with a possible heavy Z′ would have profound
implications for particle physics and cosmology. The motivations for such particles in various …

Dark matter and collider phenomenology of universal extra dimensions

D Hooper, S Profumo - Physics Reports, 2007 - Elsevier
We review the phenomenology of models with flat, compactified extra dimensions where all
of the Standard Model fields are allowed to propagate in the bulk, known as Universal Extra …

Updated status of the global electroweak fit and constraints on new physics

Gfitter Group, M Baak, M Goebel, J Haller… - The European Physical …, 2012 - Springer
We present an update of the Standard Model fit to electroweak precision data. We include
newest experimental results on the top-quark mass, the W mass and width, and the Higgs …

Dark matter candidates: a ten-point test

M Taoso, G Bertone, A Masiero - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
An extraordinarily rich zoo of non-baryonic dark matter candidates has been proposed over
the last three decades. Here we present a ten-point test that a new particle has to pass in …

Theoretical constraints on the Higgs effective couplings

I Low, R Rattazzi, A Vichi - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2010 - Springer
We derive constraints on the sign of couplings in an effective Higgs Lagrangian using prime
principles such as the naturalness principle, global symmetries, and unitarity. Specifically …

SMEFT matching to models at dimension eight

S Dawson, M Forslund, M Schnubel - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
Heavy neutral gauge bosons arise in many motivated models of beyond the Standard Model
Physics. Experimental searches require that such gauge bosons are above the TeV scale in …

Gamma-rays from decaying dark matter

G Bertone, W Buchmüller, L Covi… - Journal of Cosmology …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the prospects for detecting gamma-rays from decaying dark matter (DM), focusing
in particular on gravitino DM in R-parity breaking vacua. Given the substantially different …

Bound on minimal universal extra dimensions from

U Haisch, A Weiler - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2007 - APS
We reexamine the constraints on universal extra dimensional models arising from the
inclusive radiative B¯→ X s γ decay. We take into account the leading order contributions …

Dark matter in UED: the role of the second KK level

G Belanger, M Kakizaki, A Pukhov - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2011 - iopscience.iop.org
We perform a complete calculation of the relic abundance of the KK-photon LKP in the
universal extra dimension model including all coannihilation channels and all resonances …
