• Seminario de Temas Actuales-Dark Matter: The LUX-ZEPLIN experiment and an intriguing new dark matter search result

    Seminario de Física Nuclear Facultad de Ciencias, Zaragoza, Spain

    Abstract: The nature of dark matter remains one of the biggest mysteries in modern science. With plenty of different possible candidates and a wide mass range, Weakly Interactive Massive Particles (WIMPs) usually rises as one of the most promising candidates. The direct detection experiment LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) primarily searches for WIMPs using 7 tonnes of active […]

  • Seminario: The saga of muon tomography at CEA Saclay: from high-energy particle detector developments to societal applications

    Seminario de Física Nuclear Facultad de Ciencias, Zaragoza, Spain

    Abstract: Muon tomography is an imaging technique that exploits the limited flux of natural cosmic-ray muons to probe the interior of large and dense structures. At CEA Saclay, the development of this technology emerged from detector and electronics technologies originally developed for high-energy particle physics, and has since evolved towards applications far beyond fundamental physics.

  • Seminario Temas Actuales: Any Light Particle Search

    Seminario de Física Nuclear Facultad de Ciencias, Zaragoza, Spain

    Lecturer: Dr. Axel Lindner, Spokesperson of the ALPS II collaboration at DESY in Hamburg, Germany Abstract: ALPS II at DESY in Hamburg searches for axions — hypothetical particles that could help explain dark matter and other mysteries of modern physics. The experiment uses the “light-shining-through-awall” technique: laser light is sent toward a light-tight barrier, while […]

  • Seminario: Cosmological Constant and Renormalization Group Running in the IR

    Seminario de Física Teórica Zaragoza, Spain

    Lecturer: Ilya Shapiro (Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora, Brazil on sabbatical leave at DFTUZ/UNIZAR). Abstract: The Cosmological Constant (CC) Problem emerges in Quantum Field Theory (QFT) in curved space-time owing to the enormous magnitude of the induced vacuum energy. The CC Problem looks rather complicated, such that its solution from the first principles is […]
