We apply a tag-and-probe method to precisely measure the absolute branching fraction of the decay $\eta_c \to \gamma \gamma$ with the BESIII experiment at BEPCII. Starting with a large initial sample of $2712.4\pm 14.3$ million $\psi(3686)$…
Hadronic resonances are crucial probes to understand the various phases of matter created during relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Due to their short lifetimes, the yields of these resonances can be affected by competing rescattering and…
A selection of new results from the CMS experiment is presented. These results focus on searches for dark-sector particles using Run 2 or Run 3 data. Dedicated data streams were utilised to explore the low-mass parameter space. Machine…
We report a new measurement of transverse single-spin asymmetries for dijet production in collisions of polarized protons at $\sqrt{s}$ = 200 \mathrm{GeV}$. Correlations between the proton spin and the transverse momenta of its partons,…
Charged lepton flavor violation (CLFV) is forbidden in the Standard Model but predicted by many new physics models. We present searches for CLFV in charmonium decays using world-leading datasets collected by the BESIII detector. The…
The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a next-generation neutrino experiment that will generate an unprecedented volume of heterogeneous information-from documentation and technical notes to experimental data and reconstruction…
High statistical precision is critical for Monte Carlo (MC) samples in high energy physics and is degraded by negatively weighted events. This paper investigates a procedure to learn the relationship between the negative and positive weight…
Driven by the increasing volume of recorded data, the demand for simulation from experiments based at the Large Hadron Collider will rise sharply in the coming years. Addressing this demand solely with existing computationally intensive…
A search for $t$-channel exchange of leptoquarks (LQs) is performed in dimuon and dielectron spectra using proton-proton collision data collected at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. The data correspond to an…
Measurements are presented of the W and Z boson production cross sections in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13.6 TeV. Data collected in 2022 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.01 fb$^{-1}$ with one or…
We present new constraints on the cosmic ray electron boosted light dark matter (CReDM) using the 205.4 kg$\cdot$day data of the CDEX-10 experiment located at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory. The cosmic ray electron spectrum and…
The BESIII experiment has collected 2.6 billion $\psi(3686)$ events, 10 billion events, 20 $fb^{-1}$ of $D$ meson pairs at 3.773 GeV, and 7.33 $fb^{-1}$ of $D_sD_s^*$ events from 4.128 to 4.226 GeV. These huge data samples allow us to…
Detector visualization plays a vital role in high energy physics (HEP) experiments, yet existing detector descriptions, such as GDML, lack compatibility with industrial 3D tools. We present an automated conversion framework that transforms…
The Geant4 toolkit is the leading software for the simulation of particle transport through matter, widely used in nuclear physics, high-energy physics, and medical physics. However, the initial learning curve for new developers can be…
The landmark detection of neutrinos from SN1987A marked the dawn of neutrino astrophysics. The neutrino burst provided essential insights into fundamental properties of neutrinos, and served as key probes of stellar evolution and supernova…
A search for a dark baryon is performed for the first time in the two-body decay $\Xi^-\rightarrow\pi^-+{\rm invisible}$ using $(10.087\pm0.044)\times10^{9}$ $J/\psi$ events collected at a center-of-mass energy of…
Heavy-flavor quarks produced in proton--proton (pp) collisions provide a unique opportunity to investigate the evolution of quark-initiated parton showers from initial hard scatterings to final-state hadrons. By examining jets that contain…
We have measured new observables based on the final state kinematic imbalances in the mesonless production of $\nu_\mu+A\rightarrow\mu^-+p+X$ in the $\text{MINER}\nu\text{A}$ tracker. Components of the muon-proton momentum imbalances…
Based on a sample of $(10087\pm44)\times10^{6}$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, a partial-wave analysis of $ J/\psi \to \Lambda \bar{ \Sigma }^0\eta +\mathrm{c.c} $ is performed for the first time. The dominant…
We present a search for an invisible hidden-sector particle $ X_{\rm{inv}}$, produced in $B^0 \to \bar{D}^0 X_{\rm{inv}}$ and $B^\pm\to h X_{\rm{inv}}$ decays, where $h = \pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D_{s}^\pm$, $p^\pm$. The search is performed…
