The synergy between cosmology and particle physics is remarkable, and I will discuss some of the more interesting recent results. First, regarding DESI claims of time-varying dark energy: I will report on my recent paper that obtains the dark energy density directly from DESI data and finds only 1.5 sigma discrepancy from LCDM; we argue that the w0/wa parametrization is a poor choice in...
High-energy neutrino astronomy began in the 1970s with the concept of water Cherenkov detectors, envisioning instrumented cubic-kilometer volumes. This vision was first realized with an ice Cherenkov detector: IceCube. IceCube utilizes the glacial ice at the South Pole as a Cherenkov medium, employing an array of photon sensors to measure the distribution of Cherenkov light and thereby...
I am presenting the recent status of CKM element measurements and of CP violation searches in meson studies of the Beauty and Charm sectors and in the Top sector. The results are from the ATLAS, CMS and LHCb experiments of the LHC. Prospects for the years ahead will be also discussed.
Some of the most exciting fundamental physics discoveries in recent years emerged thanks to large-scale experimental collaborations that radically differed from conventional scientific practices a century ago. The recent success of large-scale AI models trained on highly diverse data sources begs the question: could our scientific conventions yet again be restricting our access to major...
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...
