Nepsi23 – New Physics Signal 2023 – February 15-17, 2023

Young Organization for Young Researchers 

 

New Physics Signals (NePSi – NeΨ) is the 1ˢᵗ International Workshop completely organized by Young Researchers which supports the active participation of Young Researchers.

The organization provides alternating Senior and Young Researchers sessions. This gives the opportunity to early stage researchers, severely penalized by the pandemic, to spread their work and, also, to experienced academic to be aware about the innovative ideas coming from the newcomers. 

NeΨ 2023 will take place in the Aula Magna “Fratelli Pontecorvo” at the Physics Department “E. Fermi” of the University of Pisa.

It aims at bringing together the theoretical and experimental communities, to create a discussion table to settle the main results recently obtained in the context of high-energy physics.

The event includes oral presentations on the most promising tests concerning the physics beyond the Standard Model, the tensions that have already been reduced in the sector of Flavor physics, and the ones that still require a deeper investigation. The ultimate goal is to draw a common path for the search of New Physics, especially in view of the improved precision that will be achieved by current and future collider experiments (e.g., Belle II and LHCb Upgrade II).

The registration as a listener is reserved for participants without contribution (talk/poster) in a maximum number of 60 people. Invited speakers can instead already register as presenters.

Young researchers are strongly invited to apply for a contribution too! Abstract of the talk/poster can be submitted for approval by the Organizing Committee via the dedicated form. In this case we recommend registration after the committee decision. 

Finally, we will also allow for remote attendance to the workshop for a limited number of participants.

High performance for high precision analysis – Josh Bendavid (CERN)

Abstract: The unprecedented volume of data and Monte Carlo simulations at the HL-LHC will pose increasing challenges for data analysis both in terms of computing resource requirements as well as “time to insight”.
Precision measurements with present LHC data already face many of these challenges today. I will discuss performance scaling and optimization for complex physics analysis and statistical interpretation.

Probing New Physics with Pulsar Timing Arrays (Andrea Mitridate – Caltech)

Abstract: Gravitational waves open a new exciting window into the Universe. In this talk, I will discuss how Pulsar Timing Arrays are contributing to this exploration, and the ongoing effort to look for new-physics signatures in NANOGrav and IPTA data.

High-precision measurement of the W boson mass with the CDF II detector (Ashutosh Kotwal – Duke University)

Abstract:
The mass of the W boson, a mediator of the weak force between elementary particles, is tightly constrained by the symmetries of the standard model of particle physics. The Higgs boson was the last missing component of the model. After observation of the Higgs boson, a measurement of the W boson mass provides a stringent test of the model. We measure the W boson mass, MW, using data corresponding to 8.8 inverse femtobarns of integrated luminosity collected in proton-antiproton collisions at a 1.96 TeV center-of-mass energy with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. A sample of approximately 4 million W boson candidates is used to obtain MW=80,433.5 ± 6.4stat ± 6.9 syst = 80,433.5 ± 9.4 MeV/c2, the precision of which exceeds that of all previous measurements combined. This measurement is in significant tension with the standard model expectation.
