Development and implementation of a comprehensive approach to the search for particles beyond the Standard Model and dark matter by means of:
1. Development of methods for reconstruction and analysis of CERN-SHiP experiment events.
2. Study of the dynamics of different forms of dark matter.
3. Search for manifestations of dark matter in astrophysical observations.
popup.description2
The Standard Model (SM) is an extremely successful theory that describes all known particles and their interactions. However, neutrino oscillations and the existence of dark matter indicate the existence of physics beyond the SM. The search for dark matter and particles beyond the SM attracts particular attention from the physics community.
Project goal: to search for particles beyond the SM and dark matter by:
- creating methods for reconstructing and analyzing CERN-SHiP experiment events;
- studying the dynamics of various forms of dark matter;
- searching for manifestations of dark matter in astrophysical observations.
Project tasks:
1. Reconstruction and analysis of CERN-SHiP events
2. Study of the dynamics of dark matter
3. Astrophysical search for manifestations of new physics particles
The nature of dark matter remains one of the greatest mysteries in modern physics. Ultra-light dark matter models suggest that dark matter consists of super-light bosons, which have very low mass and form a Bose–Einstein condensate with quantum effects. The interaction between dark matter and baryonic matter is one of the keys to revealing the nature of dark matter. Ultra-faint dwarf galaxies, which are objects with the highest dominance of dark matter, as well as tidal phenomena during galaxy interactions, are promising targets for detecting such interactions. The presence of supermassive black holes in the centers of massive galaxies significantly affects the state of ultralight bosonic dark matter and can lead to the formation of vortex lines and rings induced by the rotation of a supermassive black hole.
For a more efficient search for particles beyond the SM, a new original algorithm for reconstructing events involving new physics particles will be used, which will help improve the sensitivity of high-luminosity experiments and require fewer possible events with new physics particles to determine the parameters of particles beyond the SM.
