Spotting hidden sectors with Higgs binoculars

Abstract We explore signals of new physics with two Higgs bosons and large missing transverse energy at the LHC.Such a signature is characteristic of models for dark matter or other secluded particles that couple to the standard model through an extended scalar sector.Our goal is to provide search strategies and an interpretation framework for this

Balanced labellings of affine permutations

We study the $ extit{diagrams}$ of affine permutations and their $ extit{balanced}$ labellings.As in the finite case, which was investigated by Fomin, Greene, Reiner, and Shimozono, the balanced labellings give a natural encoding of reduced Ticket decompositions of affine permutations.In fact, we show that the sum of weight monomials of the $ extit

Development of polymorphic EST-SSR markers and characterization of the autotetraploid genome of sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia)

Background Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) is a highly nutritious, tannin-containing, and tetraploid forage legume.Due to the lack of detailed transcriptomic and genomic information on this species, genetic and breeding projects for sainfoin improvement have been significantly hindered.Methods In this study, a total of 24,630,711 clean reads were
