    In pp collisions at LHC energies, the production of heavy quarks proceeds from the hard scattering and then these quarks hadronise in either open heavy-flavor hadrons or quarkonia (e.g. J/$\psi$, $\psi(2S)$, $\Upsilon$). The study of quarkonium production as a function of charged-particle multiplicity links soft and hard processes and allows to study their interplay. While a linear increase of...

    The electronics of the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) DT (Drift Tubes) chambers will need to be replaced for the HL-LHC (High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider) operation due to the increase of occupancy and trigger rates in the detector, which cannot be sustained by present system. A system is being designed that will forward asynchronously the totality of the chambers signals to the control...

    The powerful photon fluxes of relativistic nuclei provide the possibility to study photonuclear and two-photon interactions in ultra-peripheral collisions (UPC), where the nuclei do not overlap and no strong nuclear interactions occur. Within the Vector Meson Dominance Model (VDM), the rho0 contribution dominates the QCD part of the photon structure function. The gamma+A → rho0+A process in...

    Modern particle physics analysis is carried out using sophisticated programming and coding. How, therefore, can we genuinely introduce students to experimental particle physics analysis without an initial exposure to the coding behind?

    To compute cross sections in proton-proton collisions, parton distribution functions (PDFs) are used which describe the density of partons within the proton. In nuclear environments, such as heavy ions, these densities change and therefore PDFs must be modified to nuclear PDFs (nPDFs). Measurements of electroweak bosons help to constrain the nPDFs. This in turn allows to compute cross sections...
