Abstract The super
τ -charm facility (STCF) is an electron–positron collider proposed by the Chinese particle physics community. It is designed to operate in a center-of-mass energy range from 2 to 7 GeV with a peak luminosity of 0.5 × 1035cm−2·s−1or higher. The STCF will produce a data sample about a factor of 100 larger than that of the presentτ -charm factory — the BEPCII, providing a unique platform for exploring the asymmetry of matter-antimatter (charge-parity violation), in-depth studies of the internal structure of hadrons and the nature of non-perturbative strong interactions, as well as searching for exotic hadrons and physics beyond the Standard Model. The STCF project in China is under development with an extensive R&D program. This document presents the physics opportunities at the STCF, describes conceptual designs of the STCF detector system, and discusses future plans for detector R&D and physics case studies.Free, publicly-accessible full text available February 1, 2025 -

Abstract A search for decays to invisible particles of Higgs bosons produced in association with a top-antitop quark pair or a vector boson, which both decay to a fully hadronic final state, has been performed using proton-proton collision data collected at
by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138$${\sqrt{s}=13\,\text {Te}\hspace{-.08em}\text {V}}$$ . The 95% confidence level upper limit set on the branching fraction of the 125$$\,\text {fb}^{-1}$$ Higgs boson to invisible particles,$$\,\text {Ge}\hspace{-.08em}\text {V}$$ , is 0.54 (0.39 expected), assuming standard model production cross sections. The results of this analysis are combined with previous$${\mathcal {B}({\textrm{H}} \rightarrow \text {inv})}$$ searches carried out at$${\mathcal {B}({\textrm{H}} \rightarrow \text {inv})}$$ , 8, and 13$${\sqrt{s}=7}$$ in complementary production modes. The combined upper limit at 95% confidence level on$$\,\text {Te}\hspace{-.08em}\text {V}$$ is 0.15 (0.08 expected).$${\mathcal {B}({\textrm{H}} \rightarrow \text {inv})}$$ Free, publicly-accessible full text available October 1, 2024 -
