A study of CP violation in the decays <sup>B±</sup>→[<sup>K+</sup><sup>K-</sup><sup>π+</sup><sup>π-</sup>]D<sup>h±</sup> (h= K, π) and <sup>B±</sup>→[<sup>π+</sup><sup>π-</sup><sup>π+</sup><sup>π-</sup>]D<sup>h±</sup>
, European Physical Journal C, Vol: 83, ISSN: 1434-6044The first study of CP violation in the decay mode B±→[K+K-π+π-]Dh± , with h= K, π , is presented, exploiting a data sample of proton–proton collisions collected by the LHCb experiment that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 9 \,fb - 1 . The analysis is performed in bins of phase space, which are optimised for sensitivity to local CP asymmetries. CP -violating observables that are sensitive to the angle γ of the Unitarity Triangle are determined. The analysis requires external information on charm-decay parameters, which are currently taken from an amplitude analysis of LHCb data, but can be updated in the future when direct measurements become available. Measurements are also performed of phase-space integrated observables for B±→[K+K-π+π-]Dh± and B±→[π+π-π+π-]Dh± decays.

Track reconstruction and analysis of particle interactions in short bent crystals
, Journal of Instrumentation, Vol: 18Measurements of the interaction of positively charged particles with bent crystals were obtained by developing a new and consolidated analysis method, for the use of UA9 collaboration. The method was deployed to characterize crystals with a length of a few mm along the beam direction and a bending angle in the order of 10 μrad to 100 μrad, typically exploited in the CERN accelerators. To assess their properties and quality, the crystals have been investigated in the Super Proton Synchrotron North Area with a beam of mixed hadrons at 180 GeV. The UA9 telescopic tracker has been used to collect the data. Some of them are used in the present study to describe and validate the applied data-analysis methodology.

Charging of free-falling test masses in orbit due to cosmic rays: Results from LISA Pathfinder
, Physical Review D, Vol: 107, ISSN: 2470-0010A comprehensive summary of the measurements made to characterize test-mass charging due to the space environment during the LISA Pathfinder mission is presented. Measurements of the residual charge of the test mass after release by the grabbing and positioning mechanism show that the initial charge of the test masses was negative after all releases, leaving the test mass with a potential in the range from -12 to -512. Variations in the neutral test-mass charging rate between 21.7 and 30.7 e s-1 were observed over the course of the 17-month science operations produced by cosmic ray flux changes including a Forbush decrease associated with a small solar energetic particle event. A dependence of the cosmic ray charging rate on the test-mass potential between -30.2 and -40.3 e s-1 V-1 was observed resulting in an equilibrium test-mass potential between 670 and 960 mV, and this is attributed to a contribution to charging from low-energy electrons emitted from the gold surfaces of the gravitational reference sensor. Data from the onboard particle detector show a reliable correlation with the charging rate and with other environmental monitors of the cosmic ray flux. This correlation is exploited to extrapolate test-mass charging rates to a 20-year period giving useful insight into the expected range of charging rate that may be observed in the LISA mission.

Measurement of the double-differential muon-neutrino charged-current inclusive cross section in the NOvA near detector
, Physical Review D, Vol: 107, ISSN: 2470-0010We report cross-section measurements of the final-state muon kinematics for νμ charged-current interactions in the NOvA near detector using an accumulated 8.09×1020 protons on target in the NuMI beam. We present the results as a double-differential cross section in the observed outgoing muon energy and angle, as well as single-differential cross sections in the derived neutrino energy, Eν, and square of the four-momentum transfer, Q2. We compare the results to inclusive cross-section predictions from various neutrino event generators via χ2 calculations using a covariance matrix that accounts for bin-to-bin correlations of systematic uncertainties. These comparisons show a clear discrepancy between the data and each of the tested predictions at forward muon angle and low Q2, indicating a missing suppression of the cross section in current neutrino-nucleus scattering models.

Optimizing graph Neural Networks for jet tagging in particle physics on FPGAs
, International Conference on Field Programmable Logic and Applications, Publisher: IEEE, Pages: 327-333This work proposes a novel reconfigurable architecture for reducing the latency of JEDI-net, a Graph NeuralNetwork (GNN) based algorithm for jet tagging in particlephysics, which achieves state-of-the-art accuracy. AcceleratingJEDI-net is challenging since it requires low latency to deploythe network for event selection at the CERN Large HadronCollider. This paper proposes an outer-product based matrixmultiplication approach customized for GNN-based JEDI-net,which increases data spatial locality and reduces design latency.It is further enhanced by code transformation with strengthreduction which exploits sparsity patterns and binary adjacencymatrices to increase hardware efficiency while reducing latency.In addition, a customizable template for this architecture hasbeen designed and open-sourced, which enables the generationof low-latency FPGA designs with efficient resource utilizationusing high-level synthesis tools. Evaluation results show that ourFPGA implementation is up to 9.5 times faster and consumes upto 6.5 times less power than a GPU implementation. Moreover,the throughput of our FPGA design is sufficiently high to enabledeployment of JEDI-net in a sub-microsecond, real-time collidertrigger system, enabling it to benefit from improved accuracy.

Measurement of the ν_{e}-Nucleus Charged-Current Double-Differential Cross Section at ⟨E_{ν}⟩=2.4 GeV Using NOvA.
, Phys Rev Lett, Vol: 130The inclusive electron neutrino charged-current cross section is measured in the NOvA near detector using 8.02×10^{20} protons-on-target in the NuMI beam. The sample of GeV electron neutrino interactions is the largest analyzed to date and is limited by ≃17% systematic rather than the ≃7.4% statistical uncertainties. The double-differential cross section in final-state electron energy and angle is presented for the first time, together with the single-differential dependence on Q^{2} (squared four-momentum transfer) and energy, in the range 1 GeV≤E_{ν}<6 GeV. Detailed comparisons are made to the predictions of the GENIE, GiBUU, NEUT, and NuWro neutrino event generators. The data do not strongly favor a model over the others consistently across all three cross sections measured, though some models have especially good or poor agreement in the single differential cross section vs Q^{2}.

Demonstration of FPGA acceleration of Monte Carlo simulation
, Journal of Physics : Conference Series, Vol: 2438, Pages: 1-7, ISSN: 1742-6588We present results from a stand-alone simulation of electron single Coulomb scattering as implemented completely on an Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) architecture and compared with an identical simulation on a standard CPU. FPGA architectures offer unprecedented speed-up capability for Monte Carlo simulations, however with the caveats of lengthy development cycles and resource limitation, particularly in terms of on-chip memory and DSP blocks. As a proof of principle of acceleration on an FPGA, we chose a single scattering process of electrons in water at an energy of 6 MeV. The initial code-base was implemented in C++ and optimised for CPU processing. To measure the potential performance gains of FPGAs compared to modern multi-core CPUs we computed 100M histories of a 6 MeV electron interacting in water. Without performing any hardware-specific optimisation, the results show that the FPGA implementation is over 110 times faster than an optimised parallel implementation running on 12 CPU-cores, and over 270 times faster than a sequential single-core CPU implementation. The results on both architectures were statistically equivalent. The successful implementation and acceleration results are very encouraging for the future exploitation of more sophisticated Monte Carlo simulation on FPGAs for High Energy Physics applications.

Large-scale atom interferometry for fundamental physics
, Contemporary Physics, Vol: 64, Pages: 93-110, ISSN: 0010-7514Atom interferometers measure quantum interference patterns in the wave functions of cold atoms that follow superpositions of different space-time trajectories. These can be sensitive to phase shifts induced by fundamental physics processes such as interactions with ultralight dark matter or the passage of gravitational waves. The capabilities of large-scale atom interferometers are illustrated by their estimated sensitivities to the possible interactions of ultralight dark matter with electrons and photons, and to gravitational waves in the frequency range around 1 Hz, intermediate between the peak sensitivities of the LIGO and LISA experiments. Atom interferometers can probe ultralight scalar couplings with much greater sensitivity than is currently available from probes of the Equivalence Principle. Their sensitivity to mid-frequency gravitational waves may open a window on mergers of masses intermediate between those discovered by the LIGO and Virgo experiments and the supermassive black holes present in the cores of galaxies, as well as fundamental physics processes in the early Universe such as first-order phase transitions and the evolution of networks of cosmic strings.
