Questions as to what drove the bulk reionization of the Universe, how that reionization proceeded, and how the hard ionizing radiation reached the intergalactic medium remain open and debated. Observations probing that epoch are severely…
Strong-field quantum electrodynamics offers a unique window into non-perturbative phenomena such as vacuum pair production, in which electron--positron pairs are created from the vacuum in the presence of intense electromagnetic fields. The…
The ATLAS collaboration has significant interest in the physics of ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. We submitted a Letter of Intent to the United States Department of Energy in March 2002. The following document is a slightly…
We present a written version of four lectures given at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on "CD Perspectives on Hot and Dense Matter"in Cargese, Corsica during August, 2001. Over the last year the first exciting results from the…
With the advent of the nanosat/cubesat revolution, new opportunities have appeared to develop and launch small ($\sim$\ts 1000 cm$^3$), low-cost ($\sim$\ts US\$ 1M) experiments in space in very short timeframes ($\sim$ 2\ts years). In the…
The scientific community is currently witnessing an expensive and worldwide race to achieve the highest possible light intensity. Within the next decade this effort is expected to reach nearly $10^{24}\,\mathrm{W}/\mathrm{cm^2}$ in the lab…
In this article I summarize some aspects of the current status of the field of high energy physics and discuss how the next generation of high energy colliders will aid in furthering our basic understanding of elementary particles and…
This document presents an overview of LUXE (Laser Und XFEL Experiment), an experiment that will combine the high-quality and high-energy electron beam of the European XFEL with a high-intensity laser, to explore the uncharted terrain of…
This Letter of Intent describes LUXE (Laser Und XFEL Experiment), an experiment that aims to use the high-quality and high-energy electron beam of the European XFEL and a powerful laser. The scientific objective of the experiment is to…
Among the existing elemental characterization techniques, Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy are two of the most widely used in different scientific and technological fields. Here we…
This article is a collection of contributions from speakers at the 2025 DEAMN [Dynamics of Electrons in Atomic and Molecular Nanoclusters] workshop at the Majorana Centre in Erice. Not ordinary contributions to a conference proceeding, this…
The Escaramujo Project was a series of eight hands-on laboratory courses on High Energy Physics and Astroparticle Instrumentation, in Latinamerican Institutions. The Physicist Federico Izraelevitch traveled on a van with his wife and dogs…
In these lectures I introduce the basics of HERA physics and give a survey of the major aspects, discussing in somewhat more depth the subject of low $x$ physics.
We briefly summarize the work and discussions that occurred during the Working Group 8 sessions of the EAAC 2017, dedicated to advanced and novel accelerators for high energy physics applications.
Compelling arguments suggest the presence of new physics at energy scales that will be probed by frontier energy colliders over the next decade. Arguments for each of the many flavors of new physics that have been proposed seem much less…
These lecture notes in Lie Groups are designed for a 1--semester third year or graduate course in mathematics, physics, engineering, chemistry or biology. This landmark theory of the 20th Century mathematics and physics gives a rigorous…
Excerpts are presented from a graduate course on Classical Electrodynamics held during the spring semester of 2000 at the Institute of Physics, Guanajuato State University, Mexico
Parton physics, when formulated as light-front correlations, are difficult to study non-perturbatively, despite the promise of light-front quantization. Recently an alternative approach to partons have been proposed by re-visiting original…
High-energy collisions at the LHC are now starting. The new physics agenda of the LHC is reviewed, with emphasis on the hunt for the Higgs boson (or whatever replaces it) and supersymmetry. In particular, the prospects for discovering new…
In this paper we consider Montevideo's liberal progressive atmosphere towards the end of the nineteenth century and, within it, the trajectory of young science student Enrique Loedel Palumbo. We discuss some of his activities in Argentina,…
