Maestro NCN grant 2024-2029

A new project, Precision Studies for particle-collider physics, has received funding from Polish National Science Centre (~3.4 MPLN). The research mainly focuses on calculations and simulations using the Monte Carlo higher-order perturbation effects generators within the Standard Model of particle physics in current and future high-energy accelerators. These calculations will allow the verification of subtle effects predicted by extended theoretical models that attempt to answer still unexplained aspects of particle physics related to the interactions of Higgs particles and their impact on the evolution of the Universe with matter-antimatter asymmetry and the effects of CP symmetry violation, or the generation of masses and neutrino oscillations. The research will be conducted in cooperation with scientists from Germany, Hungary, Switzerland, Ukraine, the UK and the USA.

Participation in Corfu 2022

August 28 – September 8, 2022, Janusz Gluza and Krzysztof Grzanka participated in Corfu 2022, the Standard Model and Beyond workshop, and they gave talks which can be found here.

as in physics, sometimes it’s hard to get to the point.

Participation in NuFact 2022, Snowbird, USA

From July 30 through 6th August Janusz Gluza took part in NuFact 2022, chairing one of the plenary sessions and giving the talk “PMNS and the number of additional neutrino flavors” https://indico.fnal.gov/event/53004/contributions/243136/attachments/158351/207755/NuFact_2022.pdf. This conference was held in Snowbird, Utah, USA, and focused on neutrino physics and colliders. The twenty-third of the series of yearly international workshops started in 1999.

Particles in Rybnik

We were at the secondary school LO1 in Rybnik: dr Biswajit Karmakar gave a lecture „Neutrinos and secrets of our Universe” with introduction by prof. Janusz Gluza „Wielkie urządzenia, małe obiekty – krótko o fizyce cząstek elementarnych” – “Big facilities, small objects – shortly about particle physics”. Some photos: link
