Detection prospects of long-lived quirk pairs at the LHC far detectors

Detection prospects of long-lived quirk pairs at the LHC far detectors

We examine the sensitivity reaches of several LHC far detectors, such as FASER2, MATHUSLA, ANUBIS, SND@LHC, and FACET, to five simplified quirk scenarios. We include the next-to-leading order QCD corrections in our simulation of quirk events, which enhance the total production rate and increase the fraction of events in the …
