The muon is 200 times heavier than the electron and still lighter than any hadron, which make it’s interactions, at once, potentially sensitive to undiscovered phenomena, and predictable to high […]

T2K is a long baseline neutrino experiment situated in Japan. A muon neutrinos and antineutrinos beam is produced and fired 295km across the country and observed using the 50 kTon […]

The next generation of cosmological surveys promises significant advancements in the field of weak gravitational lensing. As such, it is crucial that relevant systematic effects such as the intrinsic alignment […]

The next-generation Enriched Xenon Observatory (nEXO) is a proposed experiment to search for neutrinoless double beta (0νββ) decay whose observation would imply lepton number violation and confirm the existence of […]

From the reflection and reverberation of X-rays off the innermost regions of AGN accretion discs, a three-dimensional picture is starting to emerge of the extreme environments around supermassive black holes […]

In recent years, lattice QCD has matured to the stage where it is now routine for calculations to be performed at or near the physical pion mass, with fully controlled […]

The large-scale structure of the Universe can only be observed directly via luminous tracers of the underlying matter density field. However, luminous tracers, such as galaxies, do not precisely mirror […]

Cold stellar streams, remnants of tidally disrupted globular clusters, have been employed as exquisite tracers of dark matter in the Milky Way. Because of their different positions in phase space, […]

The optical light curves of AGN provide a unique window into the conditions and behavior within the accretion disk. The development of a specialized pipeline for AGN science with the […]

Gravitational waves have been directly detected by the LIGO experiment in 2015. Since then, five black holes and one neutron star binaries merging have been observed during the two observational […]

The next generation of large scale neutrino detectors, such as DUNE or Hyper-Kamiokande, will heavily rely on a precise understanding of neutrino-nucleus interactions to reach their goal of measuring leptonic […]

We present the measurement of the Baryonic Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) scale from the correlation between absorption in the intergalactic medium and the positions of galaxies and quasars in the SDSS […]

In the past fifteen years, dozens of tidal streams of stars pulled from dwarf galaxies and globular clusters have been discovered in the Milky Way's stellar halo. Recently, it has […]

Supermassive Black Holes (SMBHs) lurk in the centers of all massive galaxies, a fraction of these SMBHs are actively accreting and this can result in powerful outbursts which have important […]

Time projection chambers (TPCs) based on the ionization of cryogenic liquids are a prominent tool for neutrino oscillation, neutrinoless double beta decay, and dark matter experiments. Over the past two […]

One of the paramount problems in modern astrophysics is to understand the end of the cosmic dark ages when the first stars, supernovae, black holes, and galaxies transformed the simple […]

MicroBooNE is a large (85-ton active mass) liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) experiment operating near the surface at Fermilab in Batavia, Illinois. The detector observes neutrino interactions from the […]
