The study of the Standard Model of Particle Physics (SM) requires the analysis of enormous amounts of data that has been measured by particle detectors. It is therefore essential to build tools that can handle such data efficiently. An important step in the data processing is the reconstruction of…

The Standard Model of particle physics is the most successful theory describing the fundamental properties of matter that govern the universe. At the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, these properties are studied by colliding high energetic particles together, which has led to significant discoveries, …

Monolithic active pixel sensors in SiGe BiCMOS combine fast charge collection, low-noise hetero-junction bipolar front-ends and dense CMOS logic on the same substrate, suited for centimeter-scale, sub-nanosecond timing detectors in High-Energy Physics and medical imaging. At this scale, the readout …

The trigger and data acquisition system is an essential and evolving component of the ATLAS detector. The sequential hardware and software triggers are responsible for the real-time reconstruction of all physics signatures of interest and the selection of events based on diverse trigger hypotheses. …

Underground laboratories provide the ultra-low background and low-vibration environments essential for rare-event searches, gravitational-wave detection, and quantum-sensing technologies. We report a comprehensive environmental characterisation of the Bedretto tunnel in Ticino, Switzerland, a site…

The DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) is a spaceborne high-energy particle detector that surveys the γ -ray sky above ∼2 GeV with a peak acceptance of ∼0.2 m ² sr. With the 102 months of data collected by DAMPE, we show that the Fermi bubbles are detected at a significance of…

In most particle acceleration or propagation theories, the characteristic features of the cosmic ray spectra due to acceleration limits or propagation phase changes are charge-dependent^1-4 . Alternatively, the interaction scenario would expect mass-dependent spectral features in general. …

Free Fractionally Charged Particles (FCPs) are predicted by some theories beyond or extended to the standard model. FCPs have been widely searched for by underground and space-based experiments based on the assumption of heavy lepton-like particles. However, there is a paucity of research focusing…
