67. The nervous system of the LUX-ZEPLIN detector

Guilherme Pereira (LIP)

27/06/2020, 10:30

PhD student talk

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) detector, currently in the final stage of development, is being assembled in the Davis Laboratory at SURF (Sanford Underground Research Facility, South Dakota, USA), at a depth of 1500m.
This presentation will focus on the key aspects of the Control group whose mission is to ensure the detector safety, monitorization and control during operations.

53. Muon Tomography applied in the Lousal Mine (Portugal)

Pedro Teixeira (LIP / UÉvora)

27/06/2020, 10:45

Muon Tomography is an imaging technique that uses muons as a means of observing the earth’s subsurface and with it obtain muographs that display the column density distribution of the surveyed region. The University of Évora and the LIP intend to develop muon telescopes and apply the muon tomography in the geophysics field.
The detection will take place inside the Lousal Mine, about 18 m...

68. Top quark physics and search for physics beyond the Standard Model at the Large Hadron Collider

Alex Toldaiev (CMS LIP)

27/06/2020, 11:20

PhD student talk

A measurement of the production cross section of the top quark pair decay with a tau lepton in the final state that is carried out in the 13TeV proton-proton collisions data collected with the Compact Muon Solenoid detector at Large Hadron Collider. The ratio to the cross section in the light dilepton final states and the partial width of the top quark decay to tau lepton are also estimated....

64. Testing cosmological structure formation in Unified Dark Matter-Energy models

Diogo Castelão (IA)

27/06/2020, 11:35

PhD student talk

Future cosmological data from the Euclid space mission will allow us to test many hypotheses of the nature of Dark Energy. In this talk I present an alternative approach to ΛCDM, a class of models where dark matter and dark energy exist as a single fluid, usually called Unified Dark Matter-Energy models (UDM). I will present the results of testing an UDM model implemented in the Boltzmann...
