The Wright Lab community is invited to a weekly meeting on Mondays at 9:30 a.m. in WL-216 to hear about and discuss what is going on at the lab.
It has been realized recently that Type Ia supernova are the most sensitive distance indicators in measuring the Hubble Constant. Our Yale group has been collaborating with the Carnegie Observatory Group (Mark Phillips, Wendy Friedman, et al) with our La Silla/QUEST Supernova Survey providing a substantial part of the supernovae for the most recent precision measurement of the Hubble Constant. Results of this measurement will be presented and and its significance discussed.

Since the Higgs boson’s discovery in 2012, the High Energy Physics community has centered its efforts on thoroughly studying this particle’s properties. As a step towards that goal, the ATLAS Collaboration has undertaken a study of the CP nature of the Higgs Yukawa coupling to the tau lepton. A Run 2 analysis has measured the CP mixing angle to be 9 ± 16°, excluding the pure CP-odd Higgs hypothesis at 3.4σ. The next iteration of this analysis with partial Run 3 data is underway.
The session will provide an overview of free ACCESS resources, outline the application process for various resource allocations, as well as reporting requirements for successful applications.
If you are a graduate student, post-doc or professor experiencing restrictions via CPU hour limits, gpu access, and/or other resource-related limitations then ACCESS may be the solution for you.
This workshop introduces parallel programming concepts and demonstrates their implementation with Python. We will discuss parallel concepts, classes of parallel programs, Python’s implementation of parallel workflows, and showcase several toolkits for CPU and GPU-based parallel programming in Python. Additionally, we will discuss leveraging cluster-infrastructure for large parallel work via Slurm Job Arrays.

A first search is conducted for boosted Higgs boson production via vector boson fusion in the H(bb) decay channel at the LHC proton-proton collider. The result is based on the full 13 TeV dataset collected by the CMS detector in 2016, 2017, and 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb^{-1}. Jet kinematics are used to define independent regions targeting vector boson fusion (VBF) and gluon fusion (ggF) production of Higgs bosons with p_T>450 GeV.
This prospectus carries the goal of testing the DAMA/LIBRA (DL) dark matter claim by combining two collaborations who have set forth to reproduce the DL annual modulation signature, COSINE-100 and ANAIS-112. COSINE-100’s recent modulation results support both the no modulation case and the DL modulation case. ANAIS- 112 excludes DL to 2σ. A combination of the two experiments would allow for a sensitive search from opposite sides of the world, notably, Spain and Korea.
Well-defined operators which are capable of describing measurements made at future null infinity in collider experiments are naturally of phenomenological interest, but they are also of great formal interest. Here we discuss the properties of these so called asymptotic detector operators, including both their formal construction in terms of light-ray operators in a conformal field theory, as well as their utility in jet substructure phenomenology.
