Emerging Jets
Date: Tuesday, May 23rd
Time: 3:30 pm
Place: 5280 Chamberlin Hall
Speaker: Daniel Stolarski
Abstract: I will describe a new collider object we have termed emerging jets. These can arise when there is a confining dark sector connected to the Standard Model by a TeV scale mediator, a scenario that is well motivated by dark matter or naturalness considerations. The signature of an emerging jet is O(10) displaced vertices inside the jet each with different impact parameter, and a small number of prompt tracks. I will describe strategies that can be used to discover emerging jets <br><br>
even if they have very small cross sections, as well as related collider signatures that can be searched for using similar techniques.
