Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) libraries are widely used for evaluating discrete convolutions. Most FFT implementations follow some variant of the Cooley-Tukey framework, in which the transform is decomposed into butterfly operations and…
The process $e^- e^+ \to \tau^- \tau^+$ is of particular interest because the tau lepton polarisation can be reconstructed, allowing its chiral nature to be probed. This note reports on a study of the reconstruction of the di-tau final…
The tau -> pi pi pi nu_tau decay is driven by the hadronization of the axial-vector current. Within the resonance chiral theory, and considering the large-Nc expansion, this process has been studied in Ref.[1]. In the light of later…

We present panco2, an open-source Python library designed to extract galaxy cluster pressure profiles from maps of the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect. The extraction is based on forward modeling of the total observed signal, allowing to…
Cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy clusters are still challenged to produce a model for the intracluster medium that matches all aspects of current X-ray and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich observations. To facilitate such comparisons…

A method is presented to extract the tau neutrino helicity, or equivalently, the chirality parameter $\gamma_{\mathrm{VA}}$, independent of any tau polarization which may be present. The method is thus well-suited to measurements using taus…
At the kinematic endpoint of zero recoil physical momenta are parallel which leads to symmetries in the decay distributions. We implement this observation for decays of the type $A \to (B_1 B_2) C$ by extending the helicity formalism to…
