Interpretable Joint Event-Particle Reconstruction for Neutrino Physics at NOvA with Sparse CNNs and Transformers [PDF]
arXiv, 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,

Extremal Kerr white holes as a source of ultra high energy particles [PDF]
Phys. Rev. D 102, 024002 (2020), 2020 We consider a process where two identical massive particles fall inwards, starting from rest at infinity towards the extremal Kerr black hole, collide outside the event horizon in its vicinity and produce two massless particles. The center of mass energy of collision between the two particles diverges if one of the particle admits a specific critical ...

Recent results from the search for the critical point of strongly interacting matter at the CERN SPS
, 2014 Recent searches at the CERN SPS for evidence of the critical point of strongly interacting matter are discussed. Experimental results on theoretically expected signatures, such as event-to-event fluctuations of the particle multiplicity and the average ...

Event-by-event fluctuations and the QGP [PDF]
, 2001 We discuss the physics underlying event-by-event fluctuations in relativistic heavy ion collisions. We will emphasize how the fluctuations of particle ratios can be utilized to explore the properties of the matter created in these collisions.

Recent developments in particle yield fluctuation measurements [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences 204, 2019, 2019 In relativistic heavy-ion collisions, properties of the initial state and effects arising during evolution of the medium, such as a transition between the hadronic and partonic phases, should reflect themselves in event-by-event fluctuations of the number of produced particles.
