Modern Particle Physics Event Generation with WHIZARD [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2015 We describe the multi-purpose Monte-Carlo event generator WHIZARD for the simulation of high-energy particle physics experiments. Besides the presentation of the general features of the program like SM physics, BSM physics, and QCD effects, special emphasis will be given to the support of the most accurate simulation of the collider environments at ...

Pre-training strategy using real particle collision data for event classification in collider physics [PDF]
, 2023 This study aims to improve the performance of event classification in collider physics by introducing a pre-training strategy. Event classification is a typical problem in collider physics, where the goal is to distinguish the signal events of interest from background events as much as possible to search for new phenomena in nature.

Cryogenic scintillators for search and investigation of extremely rare events in particle physics and astrophysics [PDF]
Journal of Physical Studies, 2005 The inorganic scintillator is an important element of a new type of cryogenic phonon scintillation detectors (CPSD) developed for single particle detection. These detectors exhibiting superior energy resolution and ability to identify the type of interaction event are considered as a next generation instrumentation in the search for extremely rare ...

End-to-end simulation of particle physics events with flow matching and generator oversampling [PDF]
Machine Learning: Science and TechnologyAbstract The simulation of high-energy physics collision events is a key element for data analysis at present and future particle accelerators. The comparison of simulation predictions to data allows looking for rare deviations that can be due to new phenomena not previously observed.

Interpretable Joint Event-Particle Reconstruction for Neutrino Physics at NOvA with Sparse CNNs and Transformers [PDF]
, 2023 The complex events observed at the NOvA long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment contain vital information for understanding the most elusive particles in the standard model. The NOvA detectors observe interactions of neutrinos from the NuMI beam at Fermilab. Associating the particles produced in these interaction events to their source particles,

Minimising Event Size, Maximising Physics: Inclusive Particle Isolation for LHCb's Run 3 [PDF]
The Run 3 of the LHC brings unprecedented luminosity and a surge in data volume to the LHCb detector, necessitating a critical reduction in the size of each reconstructed event without compromising the physics reach of the heavy-flavour programme. While signal decays typically involve just a few charged particles, a single proton-proton collision ...

Simulation of Solar Energetic Particle Events Originated from Coronal Mass Ejection Shocks with a Data-driven Physics-based Transport Model [PDF]
The Astrophysical JournalAbstract Solar energetic particle (SEP) events are associated with coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and/or solar flares. SEPs travel through the corona and interplanetary space to reach Earth, posing a radiation hazard to spacecraft and astronauts working in space and the electronics on spacecraft.
