This was a little bony for me to chew but the summary session help me a lot.
We provided a general framework allowing for the simulation of the model’s dark matter signals, and used it to understand the corresponding phenomenology at the LHC.
In simple language, could you explain what you meant by the above statement? Thank you in anticipation of your reply.
I actually like starting and ending the post with two different summary versions. This is always useful for those who like to get the message(s) of the blog, but have no time to dig into it.
I must also admit I don't enjoy much writing short posts as this enforces to shorten many explanations for which more space is needed. Sometimes, I even feel that my posts should be even more detailed, the clear danger being making the readership afraid of tackling it at all...
That's why any form of feedback is always useful! I usually then adapt.
Let me try to rephrase this.
In the first of the two works discussed, we designed some computer code. This code can be used together with widely-spread high-energy physics software dedicated to the simulation of particle collisions. In this way, the existing software plus our code would allow to simulate a large class of dark matter signals at particle colliders.
In the second of the work, we made use of the code and the simulation software to actually study the model in details, and investigate its consequences for the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.
Is it clearer?
Yes, it is. Thank for taking the time to put it in comprehensive form for those of us who are not your learned colleagues. Always keep us in mind in your subsequence blogs 😀
Doing that is the fun part, believe me :)
