The MATHUSLA Test Stand. This paper summarises the background measurements done with the detector installed on the surface above the ATLAS detector.
2018 Update to European Strategy for Particle Physics: MATHUSLA contribution. See also CERN-PBC-REPORT-2018-007 for the contribution of the Physics Beyond Colliders working group, which contains a cross-experimental comparison of simplified low-energy LLP models, as well as comments on MATHUSLA’s budget, which we project to lie below 100 MCHF.
A Letter of Intent for MATHUSLA: a dedicated displaced vertex detector above ATLAS or CMS (2018). Presented to the LHC Experimental Council in August 2018.
Long-Lived Particles at the Energy Frontier: The MATHUSLA Physics Case (2018). This is a large white paper with ~100 authors explaining the physics case for long-lived particle searches at the LHC and the motivation for building MATHUSLA.
New Detectors to Explore the Lifetime Frontier (Chou, Curtin, Lubatti 2016). This is the first paper where the MATHUSLA idea was proposed.
