Combining the $bto smu^+mu^-$ anomaly and dark matter observables, we study the capability of LHC to test dark matter, $Z^{prime}$, and vector-like quark. We focus on a local $U(1)_{L_mu-L_tau}$ model with a vector-like $SU(2)_L$ doublet quark $Q$ and a complex singlet scalar whose lightest component $X_I$ is a candidate of dark matter. After imposing relevant constraints, we find that the $bto smu^+mu^-$ anomaly and the relic abundance of dark matter favor $m_{X_I}< 350$ GeV and $m_{Z^{prime}}< 450$ GeV for $m_Q<$ 2 TeV and $m_{X_R}<$ 2 TeV (the heavy partner of $m_{X_I}$). The current searches for jets and missing transverse momentum at the LHC sizably reduce the mass ranges of the vector-like quark, and $m_Q$ is required to be larger than 1.7 TeV. Finally, we discuss the possibility of probing these new particles at the high luminosity LHC via the QCD process $pp to Dbar{D}$ or $pp to Ubar{U}$ followed by the decay $Dto s (b) ZX_I$ or $U to u (c) Z X_I$ and then $Ztomu^+mu^-$. Taking a benchmark point of $m_Q$=1.93 TeV, $m_{Z^prime}=170$ GeV, and $m_{X_I}=$ 145 GeV, we perform a detailed Monte Carlo simulation, and find that such benchmark point can be accessible at the 14 TeV LHC with an integrated luminosity 3000 fb$^{-1}$.
Vector-like quarks (VLQs) that are partners of the heavy top and bottom quarks are predicted in many extensions of the Standard Model (SM). We explore the possibility that these states could explain not only the longstanding anomaly in the forward-ba
The existence of new vector-like quarks is often predicted by models of new physics beyond the Standard Model, and the development of discovery strategies at colliders is the object of an intense effort from the high-energy community. Our analysis ai
We present a novel study of the non-abelian vector dark matter candidate $W^prime$ with a MeV$-$GeV low mass range, accompanied by a dark photon $A^prime$ and a dark $Z^prime$ of similar masses in the context of a simplified gauged two-Higgs-doublet
The vector boson fusion (VBF) event topology at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) allows efficient suppression of dijet backgrounds and is therefore a promising target for new physics searches. We consider dark matter models which interact with the Sta
There are lots of new physics models which predict an extra neutral gauge boson, referred as Z-boson. In a certain class of these new physics models, the Z-boson has flavor-dependent couplings with the fermions in the Standard Model (SM). Based on a
