The Spin Physics Detector (SPD) at the Nuclotron based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) is a multi-purpose experiment designed to study nucleon spin structure in the three dimensions. With capabilities to collide polarized protons and deuterons…
A search for a charged Higgs boson, $H^{\pm}$, produced in top-quark decays, $t \rightarrow H^{\pm}b$, is presented. The search targets $H^{\pm}$ decays into a bottom and a charm quark, $H^{\pm} \rightarrow cb$. The analysis focuses on a…
Today the LHC offline computing relies heavily on CPU resources, despite the interest in compute accelerators, such as GPUs, for the longer term future. The number of cores per CPU socket has continued to increase steadily, reaching the…
A search for $K_{\textrm{S(L)}}^0\rightarrow\mu^{+}\mu^{-}\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ decays is performed using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated…
The measurement of the charge asymmetry in top quark pair events with highly Lorentz-boosted top quarks decaying to a single lepton and jets is presented. The analysis is performed using proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV with…
This article presents the potential of a combined analysis of the JUNO and KM3NeT/ORCA experiments to determine the neutrino mass ordering. This combination is particularly interesting as it significantly boosts the potential of either…
Cesium Iodide (CsI) crystals are widely used in high-energy physics for their scintillation properties that enable detection of charged and neutral particles via direct and indirect ionization and form the basis of electromagnetic…
Since the initial measurements of single-top quark production at the Tevatron in 2009, tremendous progress has been made at the LHC. While LHC Run 1 marked the beginning of a precision era for the single-top quark measurements in some of…
We report the first result of a direct search for a Cosmic ${\it axion}$ Background (C$a$B) - a relativistic background of axions that is not dark matter - performed with the axion haloscope, the Axion Dark Matter eXperiment (ADMX).…
A search for resonances in events with at least one isolated lepton ($e$ or $\mu$) and two jets is performed using $139 \, {\text{fb}}^{-1}$ of $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV proton-proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC.…
We present the first direct search for exotic Higgs boson decays H $\to$ $\mathcal{A}\mathcal{A}$, $\mathcal{A}$ $\to$ $\gamma\gamma$ in events with two photonlike objects. The hypothetical particle $\mathcal{A}$ is a low-mass spin-0…
A search is presented for the Higgs boson decay to a pair of electrons (e$^+$e$^-$) in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV. The data set was collected with the CMS experiment at the LHC between 2016 and 2018, corresponding to an…
A novel technique based on machine learning is introduced to reconstruct the decays of highly Lorentz-boosted particles. Using an end-to-end deep learning strategy, the technique bypasses existing rule-based particle reconstruction methods…
We have used the TOPAS simulation framework to model the direct conversion of 511 keV gamma rays to electrons in a micro-channel plate (MCP) constructed from thin laminae of a heavy-metal-loaded dielectric such as lead-glass, patterned with…
The normalised order-q moments of primarily charged-particle multiplicity distributions are studied for KNO scaling investigation in pp collisions as deduced from the results of the ATLAS at the LHC. The normalised moments for the LHC and…
The Extreme Energy Events (EEE) Collaboration is fully involved in an ecological transition. The use of the standard gas mixture, \ce{C_{2}H_{2}F_{4}}+ \ce{SF_{6}}, has stopped in favor of an alternative green mixture based on…
We present the investigation of the use of Opticks, a GPU-accelerated optical photon interface with the LHCb detector simulation, to improve computation time of optical photon propagation. The hybrid workflow, combining the particle…
The main task of the Top Tracker detector of the neutrino reactor experiment Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is to reconstruct and extrapolate atmospheric muon tracks down to the central detector. This muon tracker will…
The hadronic decay branching ratios of $J/\psi$ and $\psi(2S)$ through virtual photons, $B(J/\psi, \psi(2S) \rightarrow \gamma^*\rightarrow \text{hadrons})$, are updated by using the latest published measurements of the $R$ value and the…
Data analysis in HEP experiments often uses binned likelihood from data and finite Monte Carlo sample. Statistical uncertainty of Monte Carlo sample has been introduced in Frequentist Inference in some literatures, but they are not suitable…
