2B or not 2B, a study of bottom-quark-philic semi-visible jets
Deepak Kar, Sukanya Sinha
Semi-visible jets arise in strongly interacting dark sectors, resulting in jets overlapping with missing transverse momentum direction. The implementation of semi-visible jets is done using the Pythia Hidden Valley module to mimic the QCD sector showering in so-called dark shower. In this work, only heavy flavour Standard Model quarks are considered in dark shower, resulting in a much less ambiguous collider signature of semi-visible jets compared to the democratic production of all five quark flavours in dark shower.
