TL;DR: The report of the hadronic working group of the BOOST2010 workshop held at the University of Oxford in June 2010 as discussed by the authors discusses the potential of hadronic decays of highly boosted particles as an aid for discovery at the LHC and a discussion of tools developed to meet the challenge of reconstructing and isolating these topologies.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the magnitude and time evolution of this shift for two classes of dark matter self-interactions, i.e., frequent selfinteractions with small momentum transfer (e.g. due to long-range interactions) and rare selfinteraction with large momentum transfer, and find important differences between the two cases.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Weinberg sum rules are modified to take into account the walking behavior of the underlying gauge theory and the spin-one spectrum is derived for electroweak parameters.

TL;DR: In this article, the impact of the assumed velocity distribution of galactic dark matter particles on the interpretation of results from nuclear recoil detectors was studied, by converting experimental data to variables that make the astrophysical unknowns explicit, without implicit assumptions concerning the dark matter halo.

TL;DR: In this article, the interactions of a spin-1 mediator that connects the Standard Model to dark matter were studied, and the mediator's decay channels were constrained using monojet and monophoton searches, as well as searches for resonances in dijet, dilepton and diboson final states.
