Future of Particle Physics: ESPPU in Venice

The European Strategy for Particle Physics (ESPP) took place in Venice with talks and discussion on the future direction of European particle physics in the global context, for a programme, see https://agenda.infn.it/event/44943/overview

National input from members of the high-energy physics communities in CERN’s 25 Member States so far indicate broad support for the FCC programme on account of its outstanding scientific potential and long-term strategic value. From the summary talk by Calin Alexa (direct link https://agenda.infn.it/event/44943/contributions/265700/attachments/137706/207148/ESG%20WG1%20report%20v15.1.pdf)

“I am happy to see that the recommendations of the 2020 ESPP update and their implementation via the FCC Feasibility Study enjoy overwhelming support from the vast majority of the high-energy physics community as well as leading experts,” said Costas Fountas, President of the CERN Council.

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.

Scientific visit – India

From November 21 to December 4, 2023 Bartosz Dziewit and Krzysztof Grzanka had a scientific visit to IIT Kanpur in India. The stay was part of the project realization: Minimal Left-Right Symmetric Model as an Effective Field Theory, Polish National Agency For Academic Exchange (Bilateral exchanges PL – INDIA).

As part of this agreement, they were guests in a group led by Dr. Joydeep Chakrabortty.

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.
