Speakers: Barmak Shams Es Haghi (University of Texas, Austin) In this talk, I will present a novel perspective on the role of inflation in the production of Dark Matter (DM). Specifically, I will explore the DM production during Warm Inflation via ultraviolet Freeze-In (WIFI). After a brief review of DM production from a thermal bath, ... Read more
Speakers: Yun-Tsung Lai (KEK) Abstract: In the high-energy experiments, especially for those with high luminosity collider, the data acquisition system is designed to be capable of handling large event rate and data size. Electronics devices with Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) and Field-Programmable-Gate-Array (FPGA) are essential to perform real-time processing on the data from particle ... Read more
Speakers: Bhaskar Dutta (Texas A&M university) In this talk, I will present new detection channels for light dark matter, with a particular focus on utilizing proton beam dump–based neutrino facilities. The high-intensity beams at these experiments open up the possibility of probing previously unexplored regions of light dark matter parameter space. These detection strategies are ... Read more

This highly interactive workshop, presented in coordination with the Writing Center, is designed to enhance some of the foundational tools needed to successfully present your research to an academic journal audience. Some of the topics that will be covered are "structuring a paper for journals in ... Read more
To understand what’s above, some particle physicists are seeking answers below the Earth. Nobel Laureate and Queen’s Professor Emeritus Arthur McDonald will lecture on the topic of how researchers are uncovering the nature of the Universe and neutrinos from underground laboratories including SNOLAB in Sudbury, Canada. Dr. McDonald received the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physics ... Read more
Workshop on Ghost Particle Hunting: Neutrino Physics and its Applications to World Peace With a Tribute to Professor John Learned Advances in neutrino physics in the last decades have brought breakthroughs in Beyond Standard Model Physics with the discovery of neutrino oscillations and mass; detection of supernovae, extragalactic and galactic neutrinos that shone light on ...
