Why it is here

Combines endothermic kinematics with a momentum-dependent axion portal and exposes its main consistency tests.

Machine-assisted summary

The authors model two Majorana states coupled through a gluonic axionlike mediator and find a narrow LZ-compatible spectrum near 350 GeV and a 330 keV splitting, while noting the large coupling product and strong halo-cutoff sensitivity.
