    Muons are elementary particles and all their energy is available in a collision, with far cleaner events relative to those produced by the smash of a composite particle like the proton. Muons are also heavy, meaning that they are less prone to synchrotron radiation that effectively limits the energies of circular electron-positron colliders. This raises the prospect that a Muon Collider could...

    The exceptionally large dataset collected by the ATLAS detector at the highest proton-proton collision energies provided by the LHC enables precision testing of theoretical predictions using an extensive sample of top quark events. New results on top-quark properties are shown. This includes the first observation of quantum entanglement in top-quark pair events and tests of lepton-flavour universality.

    Infra-red corrections are known to be more acute in thermal field theories than at zero temperature. We use the generalised approach of Grammer and Yennie to show that the cancellation of IR divergences occurs, as in the case of zero temperature field theory, between real and virtual contributions to the cross section, order by order, to all orders in perturbation theory.

    Current and future accelerator-based neutrino experiments require precise estimations of their (anti)neutrino fluxes. The (anti)neutrino flux uncertainty primarily arises from insufficient precision in understanding primary and secondary hadron-nucleus interactions in the target and beamline materials.

One of the most critical issues is the intense beam-induced background (BIB) from muon decays, which produces low-momentum particles that lead to high detector occupancies, complicating vertexing, tracking, and overwhelming...

    Hadron Physics

    The discrepancy on the muon anomalous magnetic moment values obtained via a direct measurement and via a data-driven theory determination that uses the experimentally measured $e^+e^-$ hadronic cross section, is among the long standing and most significant deviations from the Standard Model predictions. The recently presented final result of the direct measurement performed at the $g-2$...

    The Muon g-2 Collaboration recently released a final measurement of the magnetic anomaly of the positive muon (a_μ), based on data taken from 2020 to 2023 at Fermilab. This new dataset contains over 2.5 times the total statistics of the previous publications. The measurement agrees well with the results from 2023 and 2021, with significantly reduced uncertainty largely owing to the increase...

    The Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND), the near detector of the Fermilab Short-Baseline Neutrino program, has been successfully operating since completing commissioning in 2024. Its data acquisition (DAQ) system manages high-rate readout, with robust timing synchronization and stable performance. In this poster, I will present an overview of the current DAQ system status and operations. I...

    In order to withstand the high expected radiation doses at the High-Luminosity LHC, the ATLAS Liquid Argon Calorimeter readout electronics will be upgraded.
    This includes the development of custom preamplifiers and shapers meeting low noise and excellent linearity in 65 nm and 130 nm CMOS technologies to meet these requirements, a new ADC chip with two gains over a dynamic range of 16 bits...

    Electroweak Physics

    The first measurement of double parton scattering in same-sign W boson pair production with the ATLAS detector is presented. The data set used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb^-1 of proton--proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider. The study is performed in final states including two same-charge leptons,...

    The emergence of fully electric vehicles and autonomous systems (e.g., cars, drones), combined with advancements in long-distance power transmission (e.g., satellites), has accelerated the development of wireless power transmission technologies. These technologies aim to address critical challenges such as reducing the reliance on extensive cabling and minimizing noise interference, especially...

    Charged Lepton Flavor Violation

    I will discuss signatures of muon-to-electron conversion arising from both heavy and light new physics at high-intensity rare muon decay experiments. For heavy new physics, I will outline a hierarchy of effective field theories for computing the rate of $\mu \to e$ conversion in the field of a nucleus, highlighting how different new physics scenarios imprint on nuclear responses relevant for...

    Electromagnetic transition form factors of light mesons are important inputs to the
    calculations of the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the Standard
    Model prediction of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. However, data in the
    relevant regions of momentum transfer are scarce. The BESIII experiment at the $e^+ e^-$ collider BEPCII has collected the world's largest...

    To cope with the increase of the LHC instantaneous luminosity, new trigger readout electronics were installed on the ATLAS Liquid Argon Calorimeters.

    On the detector, 124 new electronic boards digitise at high speed 10 times more signals than the legacy system. Downstream, large FPGAs are processing up to 20 Tbps of data to compute the deposited energies. Moreover, a new control and...

    Future Colliders

    Current or future GeV lepton beam for quantum physics: Quantum entanglement is a cornerstone of quantum mechanics. While the entanglement of confined electron pairs has been established early on, the entanglement of free-traveling electron pairs, particularly at high energies, remains largely unexplored due to the substantial challenges involved in measuring the spins of free-traveling...

    ALADDIN (An LHC Apparatus for Direct Dipole moments INvestigation, https://aladdin.web.cern.ch/) is a proposed compact fixed-target experiment at the LHC, designed to enable precise measurements of charm baryon electromagnetic dipole moments. The experiment leverages an innovative storage-ring layout that redirects protons from the beam halo onto a solid target, coupled with a bent crystal....

    Top-quark pair production in heavy-ion collisions provides a unique opportunity to probe nuclear parton distribution functions and study the time evolution of strongly interacting matter, including the quark-gluon plasma. This work presents the observation and measurement of top-quark pair production in both proton-lead (p+Pb) and lead-lead (Pb+Pb) collisions using the ATLAS experiment at the...
