  1. 509. TRIUMF-ARIEL: Tripling TRIUMF's RIB capabilities¶
    Luca Egoriti (TRIUMF)
    23/06/2026, 10:15
    Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    TRIUMF's ISAC facility operates ISOL targets under high-power particle irradiation up to 500 MeV and 100 μA of current, producing Radioactive Ion Beams (RIBs) for Canadians and international nuclear and particle physics experiments. The ARIEL facility (Advanced Rare IsotopE Laboratory) is currently under construction with the objective to add two RIBs, in addition to the RIB already being...

  2. 712. Hybrid cluster algorithms and SiPM characterization for the Barrel Imaging Calorimeter at the EIC
    Akshaya Vijay (University Of Manitoba)
    23/06/2026, 10:45
    Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)
    Oral Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition orale (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

    The upcoming Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory will study the quark and gluon contributions to the mass, spin, and dynamics of nuclear structure. The Barrel Imaging Calorimeter (BIC) at the EIC uses a hybrid system that combines high-performance sampling calorimetry based on lead-scintillating fiber (Pb/ScFi) technology with silicon sensors for shower profiling. The...

  3. 964. Ultracold Neutron Transport and Simulation Studies for the TUCAN nEDM Experiment
    Ryunosuke Chiba (TRIUMF, SFU)
    23/06/2026, 11:00
    Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)
    Oral Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition orale (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

    The TUCAN(TRIUMF UltraCold Advanced Neutron) collaboration aims to measure the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) with the world's highest sensitivity, $10^{-27}\,e\cdot\mathrm{cm}$, which is an order of magnitude better than the current best sensitivity. A nonzero nEDM would shed light on new sources of Charge-Parity violation beyond the Standard Model. A nonzero nEDM has the potential to...

  4. 672. Commissioning Progress of PENeLOPE at TRIUMF
    Dennis Salazar
    23/06/2026, 11:15
    Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)
    Oral Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition orale (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

    The neutron lifetime is a fundamental parameter in particle physics and cosmology, with important implications for tests of Standard Model consistency and predictions of light-element abundances in the early universe. More precise neutron lifetime measurements are needed both to test these predictions and to help resolve the long-standing neutron lifetime puzzle. This puzzle refers to a 3.8 σ...

  5. 710. Fission Product Xenon for Rare-Event Detectors
    Regan Ross (McGill University)
    23/06/2026, 11:30
    Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)
    Oral Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition orale (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

    Following decades of independent experimental development, detectors exploiting the useful physical properties of xenon have emerged as leading tools to search for hypothesized physics: WIMP dark matter and Majorana neutrinos.

    As current xenon-based experiments approach the end of their operational lifetimes, plans for future detectors with substantially greater exposure are being...

  6. 967. Standoff Neutron and Gamma Radiation Detection for Thermalhydraulic Safeguard Development of the McMaster Nuclear Reactor
    Bafrin Ali (McMaster University)
    23/06/2026, 11:45
    Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)
    Oral Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition orale (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

    Thermalhydraulic power analysis is one of the most important considered metrics when operating a nuclear reactor. Not only does it establish smooth control of operations within a nuclear reactor, but can act as a safeguard – a preventative method to ensure peaceful, nonproliferated nuclear reactor operation.
    Standoff radiation detection refers to the technique of continuous analysis of...
