Hannsjörg Weber Triple Threat: The observation of tribosons Abstract: We present the search for heavy triboson production, specifically targeting the production of WWW, WWZ, WZZ and ZZZ processes in multileptonic final states with 137/fb of data collected by the CMS …

Abstract: Muon colliders represent a highly attractive option for future collider thanks to the possibility to reach very high center of mass energy, high luminosity with reasonable costs and dimensions. Nevertheless, the feasibility is not yet fully demonstrated and presents …

ABSTRACT: In this talk, I explain how various concepts and techniques in quantum field theory and collider physics can be naturally translated into a new geometric language. Using the energy mover's distance, which quantifies the minimal amount of "work" required …

ABSTRACT: The Higgs boson is expected to decay to bb approximately 58% of the time. Despite the large branching fraction, due to the large background from SM events with b-jets, measuring this decay has been less precise than other, less …
Abstract: Searching for new physics beyond the standard model (BSM) has been one of the main goals of the LHC. With no new physics found in many SUSY and Exotica searches for prompt BSM particles from the LHC data, I …

ABSTRACT: Quantum information science in the coming decade will likely be carried out on noisy devices consisting of ~100-1000 qubits that do not share full interconnectivity. In this so-called NISQ regime, variational quantum algorithms, which tackle a wide range of …
Abstract: I will talk about quantum simulation algorithms based on the light-front formulation of quantum field theory. They will range from ab initio simulations with nearly optimal resource scalings to VQE-inspired methods available for existing devices.My work is greatly inspired …
Abstract: Noble liquid detectors, especially liquid argon and liquid xenon time projection chambers (TPCs) have been developed and improved during the last decades. They produced the best limits in the search for one of the best motivated dark matter candidates, …
Abstract: The most sensitive searches for dark matter (DM) with mass above ~10 GeV/c2 use the dual-phase xenon time-projection chamber (LXe-TPC) technology. In the U.S., development of this technology is spearheaded by the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment, with first science data coming …
- Abstract: In order to infer cosmological parameters from data of upcoming surveys like DESI, we will use summary statistics such as the power spectrum. An accurate estimate of their covariance matrix is crucial for the inference analysis. The traditional process …
