Strangeness enhancement is considered as a potential signature for QGP phase transition. Here we claim the observation of strangeness enhancement in proton-proton (pp) collisions at RHIC energy saying the de-confinement phase is reached.…
The Neutrino Mass Hierarchy Determination ($\nu$ MHD) is one of the main goals of the major current and future neutrino experiments. The statistical analysis usually proceeds from a standard method, a single dimensional estimator…
We report on a search for sub-GeV dark matter upscattered via the solar reflection mechanism in the heavy mediator scenario. Under the Standard Halo Model, keV to MeV dark matter produces nuclear recoils with energies below the detection…
We developed a Transformer-based pattern recognition method for positron track reconstruction in the MEG II experiment. The model acts as a classifier to remove pileup hits in the MEG II drift chamber, which operates under a high pileup…
Likelihood ratio tests are widely used in high-energy physics, where the test statistic is usually assumed to follow a chi-squared distribution with a number of degrees of freedom specified by Wilks' theorem. This assumption breaks down…
Inclusive dijet cross-sections have been measured in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV using data with an integrated luminosity of 140 fb$^{-1}$, recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider during…
Long-lived particles (LLPs), predicted by various extensions of the Standard Model (SM), have become a key focus of the contemporary search programme for physics beyond the SM. To enhance LLP discovery potential at the LHC, the ANUBIS…
An analysis of the $B^{0}\rightarrow K^{*0}(\to K^+ \pi^-)\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ decay is presented using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 8.4 fb$^{-1}$. The full set of…
Inelastic dark matter models that have two dark matter particles and a massive dark photon can reproduce the observed relic dark matter density without violating cosmological limits. The mass splitting between the two dark matter particles…
Processes with $\tau$-leptons in the final state are important for Standard Model measurements and searches for physics beyond the Standard Model. The ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider observes $\tau$-leptons produced in…
Measurements of differential length oscillations of Fabry-Perot cavities provide a sensitive and promising approach to searching for scalar ultralight dark matter (ULDM). The initial demonstration sets direct lower bounds that are one to…
A search for heavy spin-1 and spin-2 resonances decaying into a top-antitop-quark pair has been performed with 140 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at a centre-of-mass…
A measurement of correction factors for the hadronic jet energy scale and resolution in the ATLAS detector is presented. These correction factors account for differences between simulated and observed data. They are obtained by analysing a…
Using $e^+e^-$ collision data collected with the BESIII detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 44.2 fb$^{-1}$, we measure the Born cross sections for the process $e^+e^- \to \Xi(1530)^{0} \bar{\Xi}^{0} + c.c.$ at forty-eight…
Recent results of CMS at the top-antitop quark pair production threshold in the dileptonic and semileptonic decay channels are presented. The results were obtained analyzing $138~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data taken at…
The CMS Collaboration recently observed a pseudoscalar excess of top quark-antiquark ($t\bar{t}$) events near the production threshold. One possible interpretation involves the formation of a short-lived quasi-bound state of $t\bar{t}$.…
The development of levitated optomechanics has enabled precise force sensors that operate in the quantum measurement regime, opening up unique opportunities to search for new physics whose weak interactions may have evaded existing sensors.…
This paper presents the results of measurements of diurnal variations in the single electron count rate arising from dark photon conversion at the cathode of a gas proportional counter. Three experimental series were conducted, each…
Precise neutrino-nucleon amplitudes are essential ingredients for predicting neutrino event rates in current and upcoming long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments. A common neutrino interaction with a low reaction threshold and with…
Improving the modeling of neutrino-nuclei interactions using data-driven methods is crucial for high-precision neutrino oscillation experiments. This paper investigates Peelle's Pertinent Puzzle (PPP) in the context of neutrino…
