Dark matter is one of the most important challenges of particle physics. One of the ways to research dark matter is to identify dark matter signals in particle collision experiments. However, a large amount of simulation is required due to the very small cross-section and broad parameter space of dark matter. Therefore, it is important to reduce the Central Processing Unit (CPU) time. In order...
We have studied the automatic reconstruction of particles at e+e- collider, especially B meson, using machine learning algorithm. The main purpose of the research with e+e- collider is to precisely measure the Standard Model and search for the evidence of New Physics beyond the Standard Model. The analyses of B meson are the main objects for e+e- collider. A pair of B meson are created from...
In collisions like the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a large number of physical objects, called jets, are created. They are originated from hadrons such as gluons and quarks, and it is important to identify their origin. For example, a b-jet produced from a bottom quark has features, which can be used for its identification called a “b-tagging” algorithm, enabling precise measurement of the...
In the past few years, using Machine and Deep Learning techniques has become more and more viable, thanks to the availability of tools which allow people without specific knowledge in the realm of data science and complex networks to build AIs for a variety of research fields. This process has encouraged the adoption of such techniques, e.g. in the context of High Energy Physics, new...
The Belle II experiment is a next generation B-factory experiment using an electron-positron collider, SuperKEKB. Our goal is to broadly advance our understanding of particle physics, e.g. search for physics beyond the Standard Model, precise measurements of electroweak interaction parameters, and exploring properties of the strong interaction. We started collecting collision data in 2019,...
With the dramatic growth of data in high-energy physics and the increasing demand for accuracy of physical analysis, the current classical computing model and computing power will become the bottleneck in the near future. There is an urgent need to explore new computational approaches. As a new computing device with great potential, quantum computers have become one of the possible...
The aim of the CYGNO project is to demonstrate the capability of a high resolution gaseous TPC based on sCMOS (scientific CMOS) optical readout for present and future directional Dark Matter searches at low WIMP masses (1-10 GeV) down to and beyond the Neutrino Floor.
CYGNO is a typical medium size astro-particle experiment that requires a relatively small amount of computing resources and...
