In recent years precision timing detectors have increasingly captured the interest of the particle physicists, for their potential as time of flight detectors in high luminosity collider experiments as the LHC.
In the phase-1 of the LHC, the experiments have exploited a global event description, making use of all the subdetector information (tracks, calorimeter hits and muon chamber hits) ...
Deep under the mountain of the Kamioka mine in Kamioka-cho, Hida-city, Gifu-prefecture, in Japan, there are many leading edge facilities to answer questions about many physics, astronomical and cosmological subjects that haven’t been answered, such as “Super Kamiokande”, the successor of “Kamiokande”.
In 2010, a new challenging science project, KAGRA (Kamioka Gravitational wave detector,...
We live in a mysterious Universe.
Recently, gravitational waves have been detected, black holes horizons have been observed,
Dark Energy could be a cosmological constant... Of the main challenges in physics, we still have to uncover the nature
of the observed Dark Matter, which is contributing more than 80% of the matter in the Universe.
Extensions of the Standard Model of Particle Physics...

Quantum computing promises to solve hugely complex multi-variable problems that are impossible for classical computers to handle. It’s an exciting prospect, and research has come a long way, but quantum computers aren’t ready yet. Today’s experimental quantum systems are still too small to be useful. An alternative is to use quantum inspired computing. Quantum inspired computing uses...
