Flavour will play a crucial role in understanding physics beyond the Standard Model. Progress in developing a future programme to investigate this central area of particle physics has recently passed a milestone, with the completion of the…
Chapter 15 in High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) : Preliminary Design Report. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is one of the largest scientific instruments ever built. Since opening up a new energy frontier for exploration in…
This paper is dedicated to the memory of Vilen Mitrofanovich Strutinsky who would have been 80 this year. His achievements in theoretical nuclear physics are briefly summarized. I discuss in more detail the most successful and far-reaching…
The history of computing in Mexico can not be thought without the name of Prof. Harold V. McIntosh (1929-2015). For almost 50 years, in Mexico he contributed to the development of computer science with wide international recognition.…
New facilities for particle and nuclear physics research, which will be available due to constructing the TESLA linear electron-positron collider tangentially to the HERA proton ring, are discussed.
Although the no-u-turn sampler (NUTS) is a widely adopted method for performing Bayesian inference, it requires numerous posterior gradients which can be expensive to compute in practice. Recently, there has been a significant interest in…
The Durham High Energy Physics Database (HEPData) has been built up over the past four decades as a unique open-access repository for scattering data from experimental particle physics papers. It comprises data points underlying several…
Heavy vector-boson hunting is one of the major analyses undertaken by the experiments carried out at the LHC. I will explore two scenarios which have not been investigated yet by the experimental collaborations. The first scenario consists…
A class of low-mass X-ray binary sources are known to be both X-ray burst sources and millisecond pulsars at the same time. A new source of this class was discovered by High Energy Transient Explorer 2 (HETE-2) on 14 June 2005 as a source…
The multi-TeV proton and ion beams of the LHC would allow for the most energetic fixed-target experiment ever. In particular, $pp$, $p$d and $p$A collisions could be performed at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 115~GeV, as well as Pb$p$ and PbA…
A new fixed-target experiment at the CERN SPS accelerator is proposed that will use decays of charm mesons to search for Heavy Neutral Leptons (HNLs), which are right-handed partners of the Standard Model neutrinos. The existence of such…
A major LHCb detector upgrade will be installed during long shutdown~4 (LS4) of the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The experiment will operate at a maximum luminosity of up to $1.5\times 10^{34}\mathrm{cm}^{-2}\mathrm{s}^{-1}$, with acceptance…
The latest results from the H1 and ZEUS collaborations are presented on leptoquark production and rare Standard Model processes. The data were taken in the period 1994-2005, at a centre of mass energy of up to 319 GeV. Intriguing events…
