    1. 216. Advancing Dark-QCD searches: Model Development, Constraints, and Novel Anomaly Detection Technique
      Deepak Kar (University of the Witwatersrand)
      16/09/2025, 14:00

      Strongly interacting dark sectors, colloquially referred to as dark-QCD, is becoming increasingly popular in the collider community, primarily because of the rich phenomenology and the novel signatures it offers. The author pioneered the first search for semi-visible jets in ATLAS, and is following that up with multiple studies focussing on other final states, new generator setups to simulate...

    2. 208. Exploring Z' and right-handed neutrinos in the BLSM at the Large Hadron Collider
      Prof. Shaaban Khalil Ibrahim (ENHEP Egyptian Network of High Energy Physics (EG))
      16/09/2025, 14:30

      In this talk, I will discuss the collider phenomenology of the U(1)_{B-L} ​ extension of the Standard Model, focusing on the production and decay of a heavy neutral gauge boson Z′ at the LHC. A distinctive feature is the Z′ decay into right-handed neutrinos, leading to rich multi-lepton and multi-jet final states such as 2ℓ+4j, 4ℓ+MET, and 3ℓ+2j+MET. I will show how optimized event selection...

      Invited Talk

      ALICE is the heavy-ion experiment at the CERN LHC designed to study the properties of strongly interacting matter under extreme energy densities and temperatures. Despite the vast number of measurements that have led to crucial advances in our understanding of the QCD phase diagram and the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), several fundamental questions will remain unanswered even after the completion...

    4. 227. Modelling High-Energy Heavy-Ion collisions

      High-energy heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and the LHC offer unique insight into the many-body physics of QCD. I will give a broad introduction to the physics of Heavy-ion collisions and how they are modelled, before touching on an open problem in the field and the potential of the LHC's recent oxygen run.

    5. 209. Validation of the LArSoft workflow for ProtoDUNE-VD: alpha particle analysis and implementation of analytical mode.
      Fenompanirina Andrianala (Universite d'Antananarivo (MG))

      A new technology is currently being developed for the DUNE Vertical Drift prototype at CERN. By combining the strengths of dual-phase and single-phase designs, the Vertical Drift concept was developed, featuring a single-phase liquid-argon time projection chamber
      (TPC). A specific new geometry was created for this prototype.

      LArSoft is designed to simulate the physical processes occurring...
