The Accelerator Applications Planning Team is excited to offer 6 exclusive excursion opportunities for participants and their guests. All excursions will be held on TBD, 2024 starting at TBD. Each excursion will include either a boxed lunch or light refreshments. View the available excursions below. Space is limited so book your excursion soon!
We kindly ask all attendees to provide their full name when entering the event. If attendees have questions for the speaker, please introduce yourself before asking the question.
Speaker: Peter Meinzinger (Durham University)
Title: Event simulation of ep collisions: a theory introduction to electro- vs photoproduction
Abstract: Electron--proton collisions are an important mode for...
We kindly ask all Zoom for government participants to provide their full name upon entering the event. Additionally, if you have a question, please introduce yourself before asking your question.
Speaker: Chien-Yeah Seng (Michigan State and University of Washington)
Title: Nuclear physics in Vud
Abstract: The experimental determination of the first-row Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix element Vud has reached an impressive 0.03% level, serving as one of the most powerful tests of the Standard Model (SM) at low energies. In recent years, an...

Speaker: Arkaitz Rodas (Jefferson Lab)
Title: "Studying non-ordinary hadrons from first principles"
Abstract: Understanding the emergence of hadrons, from quarks and gluons, is one of the major challenges in modern physics. The non-perturbative nature of the strong interactions prevents us from determining the hadron spectrum algebraically. We rely on...
Recent advances in semiconductor 3D integration technology could enable modularity in sensors: An advanced digital chip may be combined with a separately fabricated analog detector front end and a separate detector. This technology will enable common use of highly capable but expensive digital components across sensing mode (imaging, photon counting, photon timing, etc) and wave band (gamma through LWIR). We report on recent efforts to produce an advanced digital imaging platform in an advanced (14nm) CMOS process as part of the DARPA ReImagine program. We give an overview of status and...
The Heavy Photon Search Experiment (HPS) at Jefferson Lab will hold its semiannual collaboration meeting at JLAB on May 10 to May 12, 2023. Collaboration has completed the full analysis of engineering runs and sent the results for publication. The calibration and alignment of the 2019 and 2021 physics run data are now in full swing. At this meeting, we will hear updates on the calibrations and the status of the ongoing analysis. Besides canonical dark photons, collaboration is engaged...

GAMMA FACTORY ABSTRACT
There exist an enormous, but rather hidden, potential of the existing CERN accelerator infrastructure to conduct new research programs in a very broad domain of science with novel, unprecedented-quality tools. This potential needs to be...
The Third MODE Workshop on Differentiable Programming for Experiment Design will take place at Princeton University on July 24–26.
