Externally seeded free-electron lasers (FELs) are promising approaches for generating fully coherent soft-X-ray radiation. Their extension to shorter wavelengths and MHz-level repetition rates is, however, constrained by the limited…
Following the Future Circular Collider (FCC) Feasibility Study completion, the impedance model for the FCC-ee High-Energy Booster (HEB) has been significantly expanded beyond the initial copper vacuum pipe resistive wall analysis. This…
We search for $\Xi^0p$, $\Omega^-p$, and $\Omega^-n$ dibaryon states in $\Upsilon(1S)$ and $\Upsilon(2S)$ decays, probing mass regions near the corresponding baryon-pair thresholds. Multistrange baryon-baryon interactions are relevant to…
Network psychometrics conceptualises psychological constructs as emergent properties of systems of interacting variables. Energy-based probabilistic models have gained popularity as models of these interactions, but their psychometric…
This document presents the energy-saving metric of the project Innovate for Sustainable Accelerating Systems (iSAS), funded by the EU under its program HORIZON-INFRA-2023-TECH-01 via grant agreement n{\deg}101131435 (milestone 9.5)
Photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) are widely used in particle and nuclear physics experiments. The reconstruction of PMT waveforms is a fundamental task in these experiments, where accurate extraction of photoelectron (PE) multiplicities and…
We report stronger evidence for the $X(7200)$ state and markedly improved measurements of the $X(6900)$ resonance parameters based on a combined analysis of the di-$J/\psi$ mass spectrum using published data from LHCb, ATLAS, and CMS.…
A search for heavy long-lived charged particles at the LHC is presented. Particles interacting with the CMS muon detector across several bunch crossings are searched for using a data sample of proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13.6…
The Higgs boson (H) decay width is determined from the ratio of off- and on-shell production of H $\to$ WW $\to$ e$\nu\mu\nu$ using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$ collected at…
The production of single top quarks and top antiquarks via the $t$-channel exchange of a virtual $W$ boson is measured in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The full Run 2 data sample…
This paper presents prospects for measuring the model-independent $ZH$ production cross section at the FCC-ee using the recoil-mass method at center-of-mass energies of $240$ GeV and $365$ GeV. Analyses are carried out in the muon,…
A search for long-lived particles using final states including a displaced vertex with low-momentum tracks, large missing transverse momentum, and a jet from initial-state radiation is presented. This search uses proton-proton collision…
In order to ensure measurement of the integrated luminosity with a relative precision of $\mathrm{10^{-4}}$ at the $\mathrm{Z^{0}}$ pole at CEPC, numerous systematic effects have to be quantified and, if possible, corrected for. Here we…
We report on the first measurement of the Central Exclusive Production process in proton-proton collisions: $pp \ \rightarrow \ p h^+ h^- p$ (where $h = \pi, K, p$) at the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 510$ GeV with the STAR experiment…
Permanent magnet electron optics offer many advantages over electromagnets, and are being increasingly used in high-energy (GeV) electron accelerator designs. Here, we identify the advantages of permanent magnet electron optics for…
A search for the Higgs boson decay to a $Z$ boson and a photon in the $\ell\ell\gamma$ ($\ell = e, \mu$) final state is performed using $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13.6$ TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider…
The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) and Hyper-Kamiokande (Hyper-K) will measure neutrino oscillation parameters with an unprecedented precision that requires neutrino energy estimation to be controlled at the few-MeV level. A…
Accelerator-based neutrino oscillation experiments have the potential to revolutionise our understanding of fundamental physics, offering an opportunity to characterise charge-parity violation in the lepton sector; to determine the neutrino…
Understanding the electron beam distribution in the longitudinal phase space (LPS) is crucial for free electron laser (FEL) facilities. Conventionally, LPS diagnostics utilize radio frequency (RF) deflecting structures to streak the…
A search for pair-produced vector-like $T$-quarks in 139 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions recorded by the ATLAS detector at a centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}$=13 TeV is presented. The search targets signal events where at least one $T$-quark…
