The impact parameter characterizes the centrality in nucleus-nucleus collision geometry. The determination of impact parameters in real experiments is usually based on the reconstructed particle attributes or the derived event-level…
A search for dark matter particles is performed using events with a pair of W bosons and large missing transverse momentum. Candidate events are selected by requiring one or two leptons ($\ell =$ electrons or muons). The analysis is based…
The experiments at LHC are implementing novel and challenging detector upgrades for the High Luminosity LHC, among which the tracking systems. This paper reports on performance studies, illustrated by an electron trigger, using a simplified…
We present measurements of the Born cross sections for the processes $e^+e^-\rightarrow\omega\chi_{c1}$ and $\omega\chi_{c2}$ at center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}$ from 4.308 to 4.951 GeV. The measurements are performed with data samples…
A search for long-lived heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) is presented, which considers the hadronic final state and coupling scenarios involving all three lepton generations in the 2-20 GeV HNL mass range for the first time. Events comprising…
The fraction of $\chi_{c1}$ and $\chi_{c2}$ decays in the prompt $J/\psi$ yield, $F_{\chi c}=\sigma_{\chi_c \to J/\psi}/\sigma_{J/\psi}$, is measured by the LHCb detector in pPb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=8.16$ TeV. The study covers the…
The NA48/2 experiment at CERN reports the first observation of the $K^{\pm} \rightarrow \pi^{0} \pi^{0} \mu^{\pm} \nu$ decay based on a sample of 2437 candidates with 15% background contamination collected in 2003--2004. The decay branching…
Based on $1.89 \times 10^8$ $J/\psi \rightarrow \Lambda \bar{\Lambda}$ Monte Carlo (MC) events produced from a longitudinally-polarized electron beam, the sensitivity of $CP$ violation of $\Lambda$ decay is studied with fast simulation…
With data samples collected with the BESIII detector at seven energy points at $\sqrt{s}= 3.68 - 3.71$ GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 333 pb$^{-1}$, we present a study of the $\Lambda$ transverse polarization in the…
Using the $e^+e^-$ collision data collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, at center-of-mass energies from the threshold to $4.95$~GeV, we present precise measurements of the cross sections for the process…
The Deep Underground neutrino experiment (DUNE), consisting of near (ND) and far (FD) detectors, is a long-baseline experiment that is designed to measure neutrino oscillations, as well as searches beyond the standard model. The DUNE-FD…
We report the first measurement of discrimination between low-energy helium recoils and electron recoils in liquid xenon. This result is relevant to proposed low-mass dark matter searches which seek to dissolve light target nuclei in the…
We report measurements of radon progeny in liquid argon within the MicroBooNE time projection chamber (LArTPC). The presence of specific radon daughters in MicroBooNE's 85 metric tons of active liquid argon bulk is probed with newly…
The present study presents a novel application for normalizing flows for domain adaptation. The study investigates the ability of flow based neural networks to improve signal extraction of $\Lambda$ Hyperons at CLAS12. Normalizing Flows can…
We report a measurement of decay-time dependent charge-parity ($CP$) asymmetries in $B^0 \rightarrow K^0_S K^0_S K^0_S$ decays. We use $387 \times 10^6 B\bar{B}$ pairs collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle II detector at…
This study presents a Monte Carlo simulation tool for modeling the transportation processes of thermal electrons in noble liquids, specifically focusing on liquid argon and liquid xenon. The study aims to elucidate the microscopical…
The observation of WW$\gamma$ production in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$ is presented. The observed (expected) significance is 5.6 (5.1) standard deviations.…
We present a design methodology that enables the semi-automatic generation of a hardware-accelerated graph building architectures for locally constrained graphs based on formally described detector definitions. In addition, we define a…
The Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) has been operating for more than 15 years as an international facility dedicated to advancing compelling multidisciplinary underground scientific research in rare-process physics, as well as…
Searches for electroweak production of chargino pairs, $\tilde{\chi}^{+}_{1}\tilde{\chi}^{-}_{1}$, and of chargino and next-to-lightest neutralino, $\tilde{\chi}^{\pm}_{1}\tilde{\chi}^{0}_{2}$, are presented. The models explored assume that…
