Effective kinematic variables for searching for dark matter mediators in single top quark production processes

Year: 2026

Type: preprint

Abstract: Effective kinematic variables are proposed in the rest frame of the common cluster of the top quark and mediator decay products for searching for and determining the type of dark matter mediator particles and measuring their masses in single top quark production processes. The efficiency of the variables is confirmed by full Monte Carlo simulation taking into account the response of the LHC detectors.
