Abstract

An electron-proton/ion collider facility (eRHIC) is under consideration at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). Such a new facility will require the design and construction of a new optimized detector profiting from the experience gained from the H1 and ZEUS detectors operated at the HERA collider at DESY. The details of the design will be closely coupled to the design of the interaction region, and thus to the machine development work in general. An overview of the accelerator and detector design concepts will be provided.

Search for $C\!P$ violation in $D^+ \to ϕπ^+$ decays

A search for charge-parity ($C\!P$) violation in the Cabibbo-suppressed $D^+ \to ϕπ^+$ decay is presented, using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $6\text{ fb}^{-1}$, collected at a centre-of-mass energy of $13\text{ TeV}$ with the LHCb detector during Run 2. An abundant sample of $D^+ \to K_{\rm S}^0 π^+$ decays is employed to correct for asymmetries arising from the production of the charmed meson and from detection effects associated with the charged pion accompanying the $ϕ$ meson. Asymmetries induced by interference of multiple processes, such as neutral kaon mixing, regeneration of neutral kaons, and interference between the Cabibbo-favoured $D^+ \to \overline{K}^0 π^+$ and the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed $D^+ \to {K}^0 π^+$ decay, are subtracted. The direct $C\!P$ asymmetry in the $D^+ \to ϕπ^+$ decay is measured to be \begin{equation*} a_{C\!P}(D^+ \to ϕπ^+) = \left(0.1 \pm 4.9\text{ (stat)} \pm 2.4\text{ (syst)} \right)\times 10^{-4}. \end{equation*} For the first time at a hadron collider, the modulus of the ratio and the relative strong phase of the $D^+ \to {K}^0 π^+$ to $D^+ \to \overline{ K}^0 π^+$ decay amplitudes are also investigated. Two-dimensional confidence intervals are reported for these parameters.

A High Performance Partial Wave Analysis Framework for Hadron Spectroscopy

Partial wave analysis (PWA) is a key method in hadron physics for extracting the properties of hadronic resonances. As experimental statistics grow, conventional implementations face severe difficulties in both memory usage and speed. We present \texttt{CTPWA}, a high performance PWA framework based on covariant tensor formalism. This framework adopts extensive precomputation and caching mechanisms, as well as fully GPU-based likelihood computation and minimization. With these optimization, the fitting speed is accelerated by two orders of magnitude relative to autograd-based GPU PWA programs, rendering high-statistics partial-wave analysis feasible at high-precision experiments like BESIII.

FCC-μe: High Energy, High Luminosity Muon-Electron Collider & Neutrino Factory at CERN

The concept is presented of making at the FCC-$ee$ (or CEPC) facility $μ^+e^-$ collisions at the centre-of-mass energy between 1 and 2 TeV and the average luminosity above $10^{34}$cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$, concurrently to the $e^+e^-$ collisions. First, a concise scientific motivation is given, including the exciting prospect of measurements of the Higgs boson self-interaction, and is followed by a presentation of the FCC-$μe$ layout -- from the source of ultra-cold anti-muons, through the muon booster, to the main muon ring. Basic considerations are also given regarding the machine-detector interface and the performance of the FCC-$μe$ and associated neutrino factory. The paper concludes with an outlook underlying relevance of such anti-muon beams for any future high energy storage ring as well as for neutrino science.
