Detection of Black Holes01:10

Detection of Black Holes

2.6K
Although black holes were theoretically postulated in the 1920s, they remained outside the domain of observational astronomy until the 1970s.
Their closest cousins are neutron stars, which are composed almost entirely of neutrons packed against each other, making them extremely dense. A neutron star has the same mass as the Sun but its diameter is only a few kilometers. Therefore, the escape velocity from their surface is close to the speed of light.
Not until the 1960s, when the first neutron...

Collisions in Multiple Dimensions: Introduction

7.4K
It is far more common for collisions to occur in two dimensions; that is, the initial velocity vectors are neither parallel nor antiparallel to each other. Let's see what complications arise from this. The first idea is that momentum is a vector. Like all vectors, it can be expressed as a sum of perpendicular components (usually, though not always, an x-component and a y-component, and a z-component if necessary). Thus, when the statement of conservation of momentum is written for a...

Electromagnetic Waves in Matter01:30

Electromagnetic Waves in Matter

4.3K
Electromagnetic waves can travel in the vacuum as well as in matter. For example light, which is an electromagnetic wave, can travel through air, water, or glass.
Consider the electromagnetic wave passing through a dielectric medium. In such a case, Maxwell's equations get modified. In Ampere's law, ε0 , the dielectric permittivity of free space is replaced with ε, the permittivity of dielectric. Also, the vacuum permeability μ0 is replaced by the permeability of the medium, μ.
Furthermore,...

Schwarzschild Radius and Event Horizon01:21

Schwarzschild Radius and Event Horizon

3.0K
No object with a finite mass can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum. This fact has an interesting consequence in the domain of extremely high gravitational fields.
The minimum speed required to launch a projectile from the surface of an object to which it is gravitationally bound so that it eventually escapes the object’s gravitational field is called the escape velocity. The escape velocity is independent of the mass of the object. Merging the idea of escape...

Elastic Collisions: Introduction01:00

Elastic Collisions: Introduction

15.7K
An elastic collision is one that conserves both internal kinetic energy and momentum. Internal kinetic energy is the sum of the kinetic energies of the objects in a system. Truly elastic collisions can only be achieved with subatomic particles, such as electrons striking nuclei. Macroscopic collisions can be very nearly, but not quite, elastic, as some kinetic energy is always converted into other forms of energy such as heat transfer due to friction and sound. An example of a nearly...

Gravitation Between Spherically Symmetric Masses

1.6K
The gravitational potential energy between two spherically symmetric bodies can be calculated from the masses and the distance between the bodies, assuming that the center of mass is concentrated at the respective centers of the bodies.

Area of Science:

  • Particle Physics
  • Cosmology
  • Astrophysics

Background:

  • Dark Matter (DM) constitutes a significant portion of the universe's mass, yet its nature remains unknown.
  • An excess of energetic photons from the Galactic Center (GC) suggests a potential DM candidate.
  • Understanding DM interactions is crucial for particle physics and cosmology.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review Dark Matter (DM) detection prospects at future colliders, assuming DM particles are Majorana or Dirac fermions.
  • To investigate DM interactions mediated by vector bosons (Z or W) and scalar particles (Higgs-like).
  • To explore specific collider signatures and background reduction techniques for DM detection.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of DM detection scenarios at future colliders, considering vector boson (Z, W) and scalar (Higgs) mediators.
  • Examination of Direct Detection limits and their implications for DM-scalar couplings.
  • Study of collider signatures, including ISR (Initial State Radiation) events and specific final states ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]), with polarized beams.

Main Results:

  • Vector boson mediators: Z-boson mediation with axial couplings is favored by GC excess data, testable at colliders.
  • Scalar mediators: Standard Model Higgs mediation is excluded; pseudoscalar mediators in two-Higgs-doublet models offer viable DM interaction scenarios.
  • Collider signatures: [Formula: see text] events and specific final states are key signatures for DM detection, with polarized beams enhancing sensitivity.

Conclusions:

  • Future colliders provide promising avenues for DM detection, particularly through ISR events and specific final states.
  • The choice of mediator (vector vs. scalar) and DM type (Majorana vs. Dirac) significantly impacts detection strategies and expected signatures.
  • Pseudoscalar mediators in extended Higgs sectors present compelling scenarios for DM searches at colliders.
