R-Parity Violation and Light Neutralinos at SHiP and the LHC
read the original abstract
We study the sensitivity of the proposed SHiP experiment to the LQD operator in R-parity violating supersymmetric theories. We focus on single neutralino production via rare meson decays and the observation of downstream neutralino decays into charged mesons inside the SHiP decay chamber. We provide a generic list of effective operators and decay width formulae for any LQD coupling and show the resulting expected SHiP sensitivity for a widespread list of benchmark scenarios via numerical simulations. We compare this sensitivity to expected limits from testing the same decay topology at the LHC with ATLAS.

A new approach to long-lived particle detection at hadron colliders: the $\textsf{DELIGHT-SHIELD}$ concept
DELIGHT-SHIELD uses a dedicated shield followed by tracking to suppress hadronic and electromagnetic backgrounds by up to seven orders of magnitude, reaching branching ratio sensitivity of O(10^{-9}) for h to phi phi ...

The Single Photon Signature of a Light Long-lived Neutralino at Remote Detectors at the LHC
ANUBIS offers the highest projected sensitivity for detecting single-photon signatures from long-lived neutralinos at the LHC among several remote detector proposals, based on six benchmark scenarios.
