In the framework of the $B-L$ Supersymmetric Standard Model (BLSSM), we assess the ability of ground and space based experiments to establish the nature of its prevalent Dark Matter (DM) candidate, the sneutrino, which could either be CP-even or -odd. Firstly, by benchmarking this theory construct against the results obtained by the Planck spacecraft, we extract the portions of the BLSSM...

We examine scenarios in the Next to Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model where squarks and gluinos decay via various two cascades, each ending in a stable neutralino LSP and a standard model Higgs with the mass gaps in the decay such that the Missing Transverse Energy is very small. Performing two-dimensional parameter scans and focusing on the hadronic $h\rightarrow b\bar{b}$ decay giving a...

The smoking gun signals for new physics at the energy frontier elude us. What gaps remain under the lamppost? Where do we focus our next searches? I'll show striking opportunities to probe new and challenging signatures of supersymmetry and dark matter. These need dedicated experimental efforts such as custom triggers or soft leptons, and I'll highlight key synergies with theoretical input....
