Calibration and Particle Reconstruction with the Mu2e Straw Tracker

Yury Kolomensky - Professor, Physics

Status: Current Term Now Closed     Weekly Hours: to be negotiated     Location: Off Campus

Mu2e is a medium-scale particle physics experiment operating at Fermi National Lab, with UCB and Lawrence Berkeley National Lab (LBNL) as collaborating institutions. Mu2e will search for the ultra-rare process whereby a muon particle converts directly into an electron, without the emission of any neutrinos. Though not forbidden...

Analysis, simulations, and hardware developments for the studies of the weak interactions

Yury Kolomensky - Professor, Physics

Status: Current Term Now Closed     Weekly Hours: 6-8 hrs     Location: On Campus

The Weak Interactions group at the Department of Physics is involved in several sensitive experiments, such as searches for neutrinoless double beta decay (NLDBD) with experiments CUORE and CUPID at Gran Sasso Underground Lab in Italy, and the measurement of electron's weak charge with MOLLER experiment at Jefferson Lab. We...
