Description
Contributed science talks with a focus on future of accelerator-based HEP.
Electroweak penguin decays where a b-hadron decays to a final state with two leptons are sensitive to physics beyond the Standard Model up to mass scales around 100 TeV. I will discuss the results of recent LHCb analyses and outline some of the most important analyses to be carried out in the future.
Discrepancies between measurements of decay modes with an underlying quark level transition $b\to s \ell^+\ell^-$ and the corresponding standard model predictions have persisted for several years, particularly for the muon channels. Some of the largest deviations from the SM occur for the low $q^2$ bins of the observable dubbed $P_5^\prime$ as well as for branching ratios for the channel...
I will discuss the scenario where new physics in the form of a massive Z′ particle explains apparent measurements of lepton flavour non-universality in B→K(∗)l+l− decays. Hadron collider sensitivities for direct production of such Z′s have been previously studied in the narrow width limit for a μ+μ− final state. I will extend the analysis to sizeable decay widths and improve the sensitivity...
Over the next 5 - 10 years the Belle II experiment will collect 50 times more data than predecessor B-Factory experiments. Together with data from LHCb, these enable precision measurements of CP-violation in decays of heavy hadrons and new CP-violation measurements of processes too rare to be investigated to date. Along with commensurate improvements in theory, these provide stringent tests of...
CMRP always was an integral part of Australian HEP community and benefited from HEP silicon radiation detector R&D that led to many innovations in proton and Heavy Ion Therapy quality assurance. Talk will overview development at CMRP of innovative silicon radiation detectors utilizing edgeless and 3D silicon detector technology which was originally developed for HEP Si trackers and their...
With the discovery of the Higgs boson, the perturbative spectrum of the Standard Model is complete. There are new interesting, albeit less explored, physical phenomena associated with a non-perturbative spectrum of the Standard Model, which awaits its discovery at LHC and future colliders. I will discuss few such topological avatars of the electroweak theory focussing on monopoles and sphalerons.
I will present the results of recent Adelaide-Monash collaboration on identifiying supersymmetric models that are currently being missed at the LHC. This includes surprising results that indicate that there is no current constraint on the electroweakino sector of the MSSM. Plans for developing new analyses that tackle this issue will be outlined and placed in the context of ongoing work with...
The talk is about ASIC development R&Ds at the University of Melbourne for particle physics experiments. In particular, the processor development for the triggering system of ATLAS detector and radiation-hardened electronics for read-out system of pixel detectors.
