I discuss how the Large Hadron Collider era should broaden our view of particle physics research, and apply this thinking to the case of Hidden Worlds. I focus on one of the simplest representative cases of a Hidden World, and detail the rich implications it has for LHC physics, including universal suppression of Higgs boson production, trans-TeV heavy Higgs boson signatures, heavy-to-light Higgs boson decays, weakly coupled exotic gauge bosons, and Higgs boson decays to four fermions via light exotic gauge bosons. Some signatures may be accessible in the very early stages of collider operation, whereas others motivate a later high-lumonosity upgrade.

  1. Can LLP detectors probe the reheating temperature? A case study of vector dark matter

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    In a vector dark matter extension of the Higgs portal, far detectors at colliders can probe otherwise inaccessible parameter space and set novel bounds on the reheating temperature.

  2. Direct-detection constraints on inelastic dark matter with a scalar mediator

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Xenon data constrain inelastic fermion DM with scalar mediator for sub-MeV mass splittings through endothermic and exothermic DM-electron scattering.

  3. GeV-scale thermal dark matter from dark photons: tightly constrained, yet allowed

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    In a dark-photon-mediated Dirac fermionic DM model, only narrow resonant regions with small dark-sector coupling allow the candidate to saturate the full relic density while evading current direct and indirect detecti...

  4. Probing the dark axion portal via $J/\psi$ decays at BESIII and STCF

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Monte Carlo studies show BESIII data already reaches previously unexplored regions of the dark axion portal via J/ψ → a γ' decays, with STCF projected to improve sensitivity by about an order of magnitude.

  5. Long-lived sterile neutrinos from axionlike particles at the Super Tau-Charm Facility

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    STCF can reach |V_eN|^2 values one to two orders of magnitude below current bounds for heavy neutral leptons via displaced-vertex searches from ALP decays in D-meson production.
