The electric dipole moments~(EDM) of fundamental particles inherently violate parity~(P) and time-reversal~(T) symmetries. By virtue of the CPT theorem in quantum field theory, the latter also implies the violation of the combined…
The value of the strong coupling $\alpha_\mathrm{S}$ is determined in a comprehensive analysis at next-to-next-to-leading order accuracy in quantum chromodynamics. The analysis uses double-differential cross section measurements from the…
Anti-quark nuggets (AQNs) have been suggested to solve the dark matter (DM) and the missing antimatter problem in the universe and have been proposed as an explanation of various observations. Their size is in the {\mu}m range and their…
The muon magnetic anomaly, $a_{\mu}=(g_{\mu}-2)/2$, plays a special role in the history of the Standard Model (SM). Precise calculations and measurements of this fundamental quantity provide a stringent test of the SM and a window to the…
We present a simulation study of dark photon sensitivity in a suggested $\eta$ factory experiment at Huizhou. The vast number of $\eta$ mesons are produced by bombarding the high-intensity HIAF proton beam on a multi-layer target of light…
A search for cosmological axions has been performed by scanning a frequency region of $38\,$MHz centered at about $10.2\,$GHz, corresponding to an axion mass $m_a \simeq 42\,\mu$eV. The QUAX experimental apparatus, a haloscope comprised of…
Atmospheric neutrino oscillations are important to the study of neutrino properties, including the neutrino mass ordering problem. A good capability to identify neutrinos' flavor and neutrinos against antineutrinos is crucial in such…
The mass of the top quark is measured using top-antitop-quark pair events with high transverse momentum top quarks. The dataset, collected with the ATLAS detector in proton--proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV delivered by the Large…
Signal loss is the main limitation on tracking/vertexing performance due to radiation damage effect to hybrid pixel detectors when irradiated at fluences expected at High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). It is important to have reliable predictions…
Introduction:Electron-Neutron Detector Array (ENDA) is designed to measure thermal neutrons produced by hadronic interactions between cosmic ray extensive air showers (EAS) and the surrounding environment as well as electrons around the…
Particle physics has an ambitious and broad global experimental programme for the coming decades. Large investments in building new facilities are already underway or under consideration. Scaling the present processing power and data…
We report a study of the inelasticity distribution in the scattering of neutrinos of energy $80-560$ GeV off nucleons. Using atmospheric muon neutrinos detected in IceCube's sub-array DeepCore during 2012-2021, we fit the observed…
If neutrinoless double beta decay is discovered, the next natural step would be understanding the lepton number violating physics responsible for it. Several alternatives exist beyond the exchange of light neutrinos. Some of these…
An analysis of the flavour oscillations of the charmed neutral meson is presented. The ratio of $D^{0} \to K^{+} \pi^{-}$ and $D^{0} \to K^{-} \pi^{+}$ decay rates is measured as a function of the decay time of the $D^{0}$ meson and…
Experimental efforts searching for dark matter particles over the last few decades have ruled out many candidates led by the new generation of tonne-scale liquid xenon. For light dark matter, hydrogen could be a better target than xenon as…
Microwave cavities used in axion haloscope experiments typically employ a tuning rod as a means to widen the range of resonance frequencies at which it is sensitive to axion-to-photon conversion. A realistic tuning mechanism requires a gap…
Results are presented for a test of the compositeness of the heaviest charged lepton, $\tau$, using data collected by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV at the CERN LHC. The data were…
A novel solution is presented for the problem of estimating the backgrounds of a signal search using observed data while simultaneously maximizing the sensitivity of the search to the signal. The ``ABCD method'' provides a reliable…
We explore the decay of free neutrons into exotic long-lived particles, whose decays could be detected in the next-generation free neutron experiments. We show that such a possibility is viable as long as the exotic particle is highly…
Results of the BM@N experiment at the Nuclotron/NICA complex on the production of protons, deuterons and tritons in interactions of an argon beam of 3.2 AGeV with fixed targets of C, Al, Cu, Sn and Pb are presented. Transverse mass spectra,…
