abstract

We introduce a variable useful for measuring masses of particles pair produced at hadron colliders, where each particle decays to one particle that is directly observable and another particle whose existence can only be inferred from missing transverse momenta. This variable is closely related to the transverse mass variable commonly used for measuring the $W$ mass at hadron colliders, and like the transverse mass our variable extracts masses in a reasonably model independent way. Without considering either backgrounds or measurement errors we consider how our variable would perform measuring the mass of selectrons in a mSUGRA SUSY model at the LHC.

    hep-ph 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    First complete NLO QCD+EW predictions for off-shell ttbar production in the lepton+jets channel, including all subleading Born and NLO terms and an IR-safe photon-jet treatment, at 13.6 TeV.

    First dedicated CMS search for bb + dilepton + missing transverse momentum in the 2HDM+a model finds no signal and sets 95% CL cross-section limits of 10^-2 to 10^-3 pb for mH = 400-2000 GeV.

  3. Deciphering compressed electroweakino excesses with MadAnalysis 5

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    MadAnalysis 5 v1.11 adds validated recasting of two ATLAS compressed-electroweakino searches and shows that a proposed NMSSM scenario fits the soft-lepton and monojet excesses less well than simpler models.

  4. Closing in on singly charged scalars

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For a benchmark singly charged scalar that decays to leptons plus invisible particles, LHC data still allow masses above about 185 GeV and in a window near 80-125 GeV, and a boosted-decision-tree search could probe th...

  5. Measurement of WWZ and ZH production cross sections at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 and 13.6 TeV

    hep-ex 2025-05 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    The WWZ and ZH production rates match the standard model, with a combined significance of 4.5 standard deviations and first evidence at 13.6 TeV.

  6. Jet Substructure Probe on Scalar Leptoquark Models via Top Polarization

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A simulation study projects up to 5.4 sigma discovery significance for scalar leptoquarks at the HL-LHC and up to 3.2 sigma separation between the S3 and R2 models using a BDT score.

  7. Probing light neutralinos from pair-produced sleptons with displaced vertices at the high-luminosity LHC

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A displaced-vertex search for slepton pair production at the HL-LHC can probe RPV coupling lambda-prime-111 down to about 1e-7 and neutralino masses up to roughly 1 TeV, far beyond single-slepton production.

  8. Search for dark matter produced in association with one or two top quarks in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV

    hep-ex 2025-05 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    A search for dark matter produced with one or two top quarks finds no significant signal and excludes scalar and pseudoscalar mediator masses below 310 and 320 GeV at 95% confidence.

  9. Fermion-Portal Dark Matter at a High-Energy Muon Collider

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    At a 10 TeV muon collider, fermion-portal dark matter mediators could be discovered up to about 4.7 TeV, and including the muon parton distribution in simulations lowers the predicted reach and changes signal shapes.

  10. Multi-Lepton Probes of the Drell-Yan Production of Triplet Higgses

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    The ΔSM real Higgs triplet model is consistent with LHC triboson excesses but predicts more events than observed and is not preferred over the Standard Model.

  11. Search for the pair production of long-lived supersymmetric partners of the tau lepton in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV

    hep-ex 2026-01 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    No long-lived staus are observed; CMS excludes stau masses up to 425 GeV at 50 mm lifetime (mass-degenerate) and decay lengths 21-94 mm / 6-333 mm at 200 GeV.

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    In the MSSM, after muon g-2 and dark matter constraints, only bino-like LSPs with wino or slepton coannihilation survive, and a 27 TeV HE-LHC could probe most of the remaining mass range.

    hep-ex 2019-08 accept novelty 4.0 of 10

    No supersymmetry signal was found in Higgs-to-diphoton events, and new 95% CL limits exclude sbottom masses below 530 GeV and chargino-neutralino masses below 235-290 GeV in simplified SUSY models.

    Using 139 fb^-1 of 13 TeV pp data, ATLAS finds no sign of charginos or sleptons and excludes chargino masses up to 420 GeV (W-mediated) and slepton masses up to 700 GeV for a massless LSP.
