    Irradiation with mixed helium-carbon ion beams is a promising proposal for online monitoring in carbon ion therapy. Over the past two years, newly developed beam manipulation schemes have enabled us to generate and deliver these novel beams to the MedAustron research irradiation room for first research projects in accelerator physics, detector development, and medical physics.

    We introduce a novel methodology for addressing systematic uncertainties in unbinned inclusive cross-section measurements and related collider-based inference problems. Our approach incorporates known analytic dependencies on parameters of interest, including signal strengths and nuisance parameters. When these dependencies are unknown, as is frequently the case for systematic uncertainties,...

    We discuss our recent efforts to bring together the Austrian community of early-career researchers (ECRs) within nuclear and particle physics. Moreover, we briefly introduce the ECFA ECR panel for which Austria nominates up to three members and outline its tasks and possible benefits for ECRs.

    Starting in the end of 2026, a 1.5 year large scale double exhibition will take place at the Kunsthaus Graz, in cooperation with physics, philosophy and arts groups at the University of Graz. It will connect to both particle physics and (quantum) gravity. This will give an overview of these activities, as well as offer opportunities for collaboration.

    The presentation provides an overview of the activities of the International Particle Physics Outreach Group (IPPOG) and the European Particle Physics Communication Network (EPPCN). It offers insights into the diverse outreach programs of various institutes and provides opportunities for networking and joint projects and activities between institutes in order to significantly increase the...

    I will present recent developments aimed at extending Monte Carlo event generators to include processes with final-state jets while preserving next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) parton-level accuracy. I will discuss the resummation of one-jettiness for the Z+jet process at the LHC. I will then present a general implementation of fully differential NNLO QCD corrections for both colour-singlet...

    CRESST (Cryogenic Rare Event Search with Superconducting Thermometers) and COSINUS (Cryogenic Observatory for SIgnatures seen in Next-generation Underground Searches) are cryogenic dark matter experiments operated at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) in Italy. Both aim to detect dark matter–nucleus interactions using scintillating calorimeters equipped with transition edge sensors...

    Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) occurs within the Standard Model of particle physics when a neutrino interacts with a nucleus as a whole. The coherence condition, which is fulfilled for neutrino energies below 50 MeV, leads to a large interaction cross section, making CEvNS an excellent precision probe of the Standard Model.
    The NUCLEUS experiment aims to detect CEvNS...

    The ability to measure the arrival time of particles is important in many applications, including those in high-energy physics, industry, and medicine. For instance, single optical photon detection and time tagging are used in light detection and ranging (LiDAR) systems for the automotive industry, as well as in optical tomography and fluorescence lifetime measurements in medicine. In these...

    This presentation will present a status report on the work of the groups of Axel Maas, Simon Plätzer, and Denes Sexty at the University of Graz, which uses a combination of numerical and analytical techniques to address key questions about how fundamental matter interacts. We are interested in using these non-perturbative techniques to provide input for phenomenology and experiment. To fully...

    The Belle II detector is a general-purpose spectrometer built around the interaction point of the asymmetric-energy electron–positron collider SuperKEKB, located in Tsukuba, Japan.
    While Belle II is best known as a B-factory, the production rate of charm–anticharm quark pairs at SuperKEKB is slightly higher than that of $B$-meson pairs.

    To date, charm and light quark fragmentation at...

    Experts in quantum field theory (QFT) generally answer the question of the "size of an electron" with "point-like". On the other hand, QFT recognizes quantum effects, shielding by virtual particles, the so-called polarization cloud, which should describe the size of physical electrons. Scattering experiments with electrons, such as those carried out in high-energy experiments at particle...

    ´We investigate the motion of test particles in quantum-gravitational backgrounds by introducing the concept of q–desics, quantum-corrected analogs of classical geodesics. Unlike standard approaches that rely solely on the expectation value of the spacetime metric, our formulation is based on the expectation value of quantum operators, such as the affine connection operator. This allows us to...

    A new canonical quantization framework for static spherically symmetric spacetimes is presented. For a proof-of-principle, the Einstein-Hilbert action is considered. We recover the classical solution and further investigate the quantum uncertainty relations arising among the geometric operators. Our analysis uncovers an intriguing relation to black holes and generalized uncertainty relations....
