A hidden sector containing light long-lived particles provides a well-motivated place to find new physics. The recently proposed MATHUSLA experiment has the potential to be extremely sensitive to light particles originating from rare meson decays in the very long lifetime region. In this work, we illustrate this strength with the specific example of a light scalar mixed with the standard model-like Higgs boson, a model where MATHUSLA can further probe unexplored parameter space from exotic Higgs decays. Design augmentations should be considered in order to maximize the ability of MATHUSLA to discover very light hidden sector particles.

  1. Complete Light Long-Lived Particles searches in Type-I 2HDM

    hep-ph 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the Type-I 2HDM, light long-lived Higgs particles are forced into a narrow relation between mixing angle and tanβ, and FASER2 could probe the benchmark regions about a hundred times better than FASER.

  2. Light scalar production from Higgs bosons and FASER 2

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A general scalar portal with independent production and decay couplings lets FASER 2 with a 1.5 m radius detector probe scalar masses from a few GeV up to half the Higgs mass.

  3. Inverse Weak measurement in SERF magnetometer

    physics.ins-det 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    A SERF magnetometer with inverse weak measurement readout is claimed to reach 182.8 femtotesla per root hertz and improve long-term stability by one to two orders of magnitude.
