Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

The Belle II experiment operating at the SuperKEKB electron-positron collider is the first high energy collider experiment to use CsI(Tl) pulse shape discrimination (PSD) as a new method for improving particle identification. This novel technique employs the particle-dependent scintillation response of the CsI(Tl) crystals which comprise the electromagnetic calorimeter to identify...

Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

The electroweak production of a Z boson in association with two jets is measured using the full Run-II dataset of the ATLAS experiment. This EW-Zjj process is a fundamental process of the Standard Model (SM), it is sensitive to vector boson fusion Z boson production via the WWZ triple gauge vertex. The process is difficult to study, so an advanced methodology is employed to measure the EW-Zjj...
