Foundation models are changing the way machine learning is used across many fields byproviding a shared pretrained model that can be adapted to a wide range of downstream tasks. Incollider physics, many analyses face similar challenges in understanding complex events.reconstructing invisible particles, and extracting subtle physics ...

The equation of state (EOS) of dense nuclear matter is one of the open problems in physics, receiving lot of attention recently because of the observational window on compact astrophysical objects openedoy gravitational waves detection. Effective field theories are reliable up to slightly above saturatiordensity,...

Speaker: Da Yu Tou, Tsinghua UniversityTime: Tuesday, May 19, 2026, 15:40Location: Room 9557Abstract:The LHCb experiment provides an ideal environment for the spectroscopy of heavyhadrons. This is evidenced by the 72 new hadrons discovered at the experiment to date,including the world's first observation of pentaquark states. These states exist withinhe non-perturbative regime of Quantum Chromodynamics ...

Speaker: Yajun He (何亚君), DESYTime: Tuesday, May 19, 2026, 14:30Location: Room 9557Abstract:Commercial CMOS imaging sensor technologies enable the integration of the sensor and readout on a single silicon substrate, forming Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS). MAPS offers several advantages, including a low material budget and the potential for small pixel sizes, making it a promising candidate ...

Speaker: Dr. Jose Maria Benlloch RodriguezTime: 10:00 A.M., 21st, May 2026Location: Room 9557Abstract:The NEXT (Neutrino Experiment with a Xenon TPC) collaboration searches for neutrinoless double beta decay (0v BB) in 136Xe using high-pressure xenon gas time projection chambers with electroluminescent amplification (HPXeEL). This technology offers a powerful combination of sub-percent energy resolution,...
