We propose a new experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) that offers a powerful and model-independent probe for milli-charged particles. This experiment could be sensitive to charges in the range $10^{-3}e - 10^{-1}e$ for masses in the range $0.1 - 100$ GeV, which is the least constrained part of the parameter space for milli-charged particles. This is a new window of opportunity for exploring physics beyond the Standard Model at the LHC.

  1. A New Source of Millicharged Particles: Secondary Showers in the LHC Forward Absorber

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Secondary cascades in the TAXN absorber produce a substantial millicharged particle flux that complements primary production and boosts FORMOSA signals by ~50% for m_χ below 0.1 GeV.

  2. Letter of Intent: The Forward Physics Facility

    hep-ex 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Proposes construction of the Forward Physics Facility at the HL-LHC with four complementary detectors to exploit forward neutrinos and new-particle fluxes for neutrino, QCD, astroparticle, and dark-matter measurements.
