The top quark is the heaviest known fundamental particle. As it is the only quark that decays before it hadronizes, this gives us the unique opportunity to probe the properties of bare quarks at the Large Hadron Collider. This talk will present highlights of a few recent precision measurements by the ATLAS Collaboration of the top quark using 13 TeV and 8 TeV collision data: top-quark pair and...
In recent years, several dedicated experiments at the $e^- p$ collider HERA have collected high precision data on the spectrum of leading-neutron and leading-proton carrying a large fraction of the proton's energy. In [Phys. Rev. D 95, 074011 (2017), \, arXiv:1703.04369 [hep-ph]], we propose a technique based on the fractures functions framework and extract the neutron fracture functions...
In February 2016 the LIGO \& VIRGO collaboration reported the discovery of gravitational waves in merging black holes, therefore, the team confirmed GR predictions about an existence of black holes and gravitational waves in the strong gravitational field limit. Moreover, in their papers the joint LIGO \& VIRGO team presented an upper limit on graviton mass such as $m_g < 1.2 \times...
