We report the production and azimuthal anisotropy measurements of strange and multi-strange hadrons at STAR BES energies. The $\Lambda/K^0_s$ ratio is reported at 3 GeV and observed to increase faster with transverse momentum than that at…
Recent results on inclusive jet production and production of a W boson in association with a charm quark by the CMS Collaboration are presented in this proceeding. The impact of these measurements on proton PDFs are also discussed.
A new mechanism has been proposed to simultaneously explain the presence of dark matter and the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe. This scenario predicts exotic $B$ meson decays into a baryon and a dark sector anti-baryon…
We present the Migdal In Galactic Dark mAtter expLoration (MIGDAL) experiment aiming at the unambiguous observation and study of the so-called Migdal effect induced by fast-neutron scattering. It is hoped that this elusive atomic process…
We search for lepton-flavor-violating $\tau^-\to e^-\alpha$ and $\tau^-\to\mu^-\alpha$ decays, where $\alpha$ is an invisible spin-0 boson. The search uses electron-positron collisions at $10.58$ GeV center-of-mass energy with an integrated…
We present a measurement of the branching fractions of four $B^{0,-}\to D^{(*)+,0} K^- K^{0}_S$ decay modes. The measurement is based on data from SuperKEKB electron-positron collisions at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance collected with the…
This paper presents the first simultaneous measurement of the quasielastic-like neutrino-nucleus cross sections on C, water, Fe, Pb and scintillator (hydrocarbon or CH) as a function of longitudinal and transverse muon momentum. The ratio…
At the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) we are developing a high precision instrument to measure the muon electric dipole moment (EDM). The experiment is based on the frozen-spin method in which the spin precession induced by the anomalous…
We describe a new table-top electrostatic storage ring concept for $30$ keV polarized ions at frozen spin condition. The device will ultimately be capable of measuring magnetic fields with a resolution of 10$^{-21}$ T with sub-mHz…
We study $B^{+}\to \pi^{+}\pi^{0}\pi^{0}$ using 711 $\rm{fb}^{-1}$ of data collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. We measure an inclusive branching fraction of…
The precise modeling of the de-excitation of Gd isotopes is of great interest for experimental studies of neutrinos using Gd-loaded organic liquid scintillators. The FIFRELIN code was recently used within the purposes of the STEREO…
Three independent searches for new physics using data collected at BABAR are presented. Firstly, two searches for dark matter and baryogenesis: $B^{0}\rightarrow \Lambda + \psi_{D}$ and $B^{+} \rightarrow p + \psi_{D}$ are detailed, where…
The processes $ e^+e^-\rightarrow \Sigma^0\overline{\Sigma}{}^0 $ and $ e^+e^-\rightarrow\Sigma^+\overline{\Sigma}{}^-$ are studied using initial-state-radiation events in a sample of 980 $\,\mbox{fb}^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector…
The Positron Annihilation to Dark Matter Experiment (PADME) uses the positron beam of the DA$\Phi$NE Beam-Test Facility, at the Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati (LNF) to search for a Dark Photon $A'$. The search technique studies the…
The LHCb experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is designed to perform high-precision measurements of heavy-hadron decays, which requires the collection of large data samples and a good understanding and suppression of multiple…
The qBounce collaboration built over the last years a new Ramsey-type Gravitational Resonance Spectroscopy (GRS) experiment. After commissioning between 2016 and 2018, the setup was able to measure the Ramsey transitions with GRS for the…
Following neutron capture in a material there will be prompt nuclear recoils in addition to the gamma cascade. The nuclear recoils that are left behind in materials are generally below 1\,keV and therefore in the range of interest for dark…
An extended version of the CALICE silicon-tungsten ECAL was tested in November 2021 at the DESY beam test facility. With 15 active layers, it featured some with a thin PCB design, and a new compact DAQ system handling all layers in a common…
We present a novel approach for the search of dark matter in the DarkSide-50 experiment, relying on Bayesian Networks. This method incorporates the detector response model into the likelihood function, explicitly maintaining the connection…
Measurement of the ultra-rare $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ decay at the NA62 experiment at CERN requires high-performance particle identification to distinguish muons from pions. Calorimetric identification currently in use, based on a boosted…
