Using nucleons to search for new physics
Oral-In-person
Abstract
Nucleons as bound states of quarks and gluons provide many precise tests of the standard models. As targets in experiments, their detailed properties are needed in searches for physics beyond the standard model. This talk will summarize the current state of results of many of these properties obtained through large scale simulations of lattice QCD. These will include nucleon charges for direct detection dark matter experiments; the nucleon sigma terms; electric and magnetic form factors; the axial form factors needed to calculate the neutrino-nucleus cross section with precision needed to reach the design goals of the DUNE experiment; and radiative corrections to neutron decay for the extraction of the CKM matrix element V_ud.
