Measurement of the $Ω_c^0$ lifetime at Belle II

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, F. Abudinén, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal, H. Ahmed | Summary: We report on a measurement of the $Omega_c^0$ lifetime using $Omega_c^0 to Omega^-pi^+$ decays reconstructed in $e^+e^-to cbar{c}$ data collected by the Belle II experiment and corresponding to $207~{rm fb^{-1}}$ of integrated luminosity. The […]

Compton Telescopes for Gamma-ray Astrophysics

Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Carolyn Kierans, Tadayuki Takahashi, Gottfried Kanbach, , | Summary: Compton telescopes rely on the dominant interaction mechanism in the MeV gamma-ray energy range: Compton scattering. By precisely recording the position and energy of multiple Compton scatter interactions in a detector volume, a photon’s original direction and energy […]

Asymptotic density of states in 2d CFTs with non-invertible symmetries

Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Ying-Hsuan Lin, Masaki Okada, Sahand Seifnashri, Yuji Tachikawa, | Summary: It is known that the asymptotic density of states of a 2d CFT in an irreducible representation $rho$ of a finite symmetry group $G$ is proportional to $(dimrho)^2$. We show how this statement can be generalized when […]

Probing early structure and model-independent neutrino mass with high-redshift CMB lensing mass maps

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiya Namikawa | First 5 Authors: Frank J. Qu, Blake D. Sherwin, Omar Darwish, Toshiya Namikawa, Mathew S. Madhavacheril | Summary: CMB lensing maps probe the mass distribution in projection out to high redshifts, but significant sensitivity to low-redshift structure remains. In this paper we discuss a method to remove the low-redshift contributions […]
