A search for the rare decays $B_{(s)}^0\to J/\psi\gamma$ is performed with proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to integrated luminosities of $3~\rm{fb}^{-1}$ at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8…
Evidence of the production of two Z bosons and a photon in proton-proton collisions is reported for the first time in CMS. The analysis uses data collected by the CMS experiment between 2016 and 2018 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV,…
A large solid angle magnetic spectrometer for high luminosity and forward scattering angles was constructed at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. A number of physics experiments have used this spectrometer, and a…
Constraints on Wilson coefficients (WCs) corresponding to dimension-six operators of the standard model effective field theory (SMEFT) are determined from a simultaneous fit to seven sets of CMS measurements probing Higgs boson, electroweak…
Haloscope is one of the typical installations to detect the electromagnetic responses (EMRs) of axion field in radio-frequency (RF) and microwave bands. Given that the detectable signals of the usual Haloscope-type detectors (HTDs), biased…
To harness the power of Language Models in answering domain specific specialized technical questions, Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) is been used widely. In this work, we have developed a Q\&A application inspired by the Retrieval…
A search for Higgs boson pair production is presented, targeting final states where one Higgs boson decays to a pair of bottom quarks and the other Higgs boson decays to two W bosons, both of which decay leptonically, to an electron or a…
Recent measurements of the $t\bar{t}$ cross section, performed both inclusively and differentially by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations, are reported. In particular, off-shell effects are probed in the $pp\to W^+bW^-\bar{b}$ and $pp\to…
Studies of Higgs boson properties are crucial for the understanding the Standard Model (SM), as it could couple to new particles and provide hints to physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM). Different future colliders are proposed, among…
This document presents a self-contained treatment of regularized unfolding based on cubic B-spline representations and eigenmode filtering, following the original formulation by Blobel and direct translation of the original implementation…
Both ILC detector concepts, ILD and SiD, are very complex machines, the assembly and installation of which in the experimental cavern at the ILC interaction point will be complicated endeavours. These procedures require careful planning and…
A sensitivity study for the measurement of $\bar{K}_1(1270)$ decay modes is performed using semileptonic $D$-meson decays. The BESIII experiment is taken as a case study, where a simultaneous analysis of $\bar{K}_1(1270)$ decays to the four…
Geoneutrinos, the electron (anti)neutrinos generated in decays or decay chains of the radioactive elements within the Earth, primarily K-40, U-238, and Th-232, serve as a unique probe for the inner chemical composition of the Earth. A…
Semileptonic $b\to c\tau\bar{\nu}_{\tau}$ decays are powerful probes of non-Standard-Model effects within an effective-field-theory (EFT) framework, but fully exploiting them in current and future data demands combinations that maximise…
The CDF II experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron used a drift chamber to measure the momenta of charged particles. We present a model for the response of the drift chamber to the curvature of a charged particle's trajectory. Constraints on…
Large language model-based AI agents are now able to autonomously execute substantial portions of a high energy physics (HEP) analysis pipeline with minimal expert-curated input. Given access to a HEP dataset, an execution framework, and a…
We present an AI agentic measurement of the thrust distribution in $e^{+}e^{-}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=91.2$~GeV using archived ALEPH data. The analysis and all note writing is carried out entirely by AI agents (OpenAI Codex and Anthropic…
The Run 3 of the LHC brings unprecedented luminosity and a surge in data volume to the LHCb detector, necessitating a critical reduction in the size of each reconstructed event without compromising the physics reach of the heavy-flavour…
Deep underground experiments present a new avenue to probe the first interactions in extensive air showers or hadronic interactions in the extreme forward phase space. The China Jinping Underground Laboratory, characterized by a vertical…
In recent neutrino detectors, neutrons produced in neutrino reactions play an important role. Muon capture on oxygen nuclei is one of the processes that produce neutrons in water Cherenkov detectors. We measured neutron multiplicity in the…
