Gravitational wave observatories frequently encounter noise transients, called glitches, that overlap with the signal. The glitches need to be carefully reconstructed and subtracted before analysing the signal. When the glitches do not overlap with the signal, the data surrounding it is simply discarded. For the proposed third-generation interferometers, such as the Einstein Telescope, most...
The Heavy Quark Expansion (HQE) is one of the leading tools for calculating decay rates and kinematic moments of inclusive semi-leptonic B-meson decays ($B \rightarrow X_c \, \overline{\nu} \, l $). The HQE is an Operator Product Expansion (OPE) in terms of the inverse of the mass of the heavy bottom quark ($1/m_b$). It introduces nonperturbative HQE parameters which can be determined using...
The NL-eEDM experiment aims to set a new limit on the permanent electric dipole moment of the electron (eEDM), in order to constrain CP-violation as it appears in many standard model extensions. We use an all-optical method to probe properties of the barium-fluoride (BaF) molecule. A novel spin-precession method permits identification of possible false EDM signals from the optical signal[1]....
Calcium-48 is an important isotope of calcium for scientific research.
It has been instrumental in the discovery of the heaviest elements and
has great potential in the search for neutrinoless double-beta decay.
Unfortunately its natural abundance is only 0.18% and the production
costs are around 0.5M€/g. We report on a method to enrich heavy calcium.
Our method using a low melting-point...
An investigation of relatively light (GeV-scale), long-lived right-handed neutrinos is performed within minimal left-right symmetric models using the neutrino-extended Standard Model Effective Field Theory framework. Light sterile neutrinos can be produced through rare decays of kaons, D-mesons, and B-mesons at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF) of...
Many theories beyond the Standard Model predict the existence of new heavy bosons. Some of them can decay into SM dibosons (WW, WZ, ZZ, Wh, and Zh) in semi-leptonic final states. This work is the second round of the analysis that combines two separate analyses: VV and Vh (V is either Z or W boson). Harmonization of VV and Vh and all the leptonic channels is done to make it less complex, but...
