Machine Learning on Heterogeneous, Edge, and Quantum Hardware for Particle Physics (ML-HEQUPP)
Julia Gonski, Jenni Ott, Shiva Abbaszadeh +118
The next generation of particle physics experiments will face a new era of challenges in data acquisition, due to unprecedented data rates and volumes along with extreme environmen…
First MINOS+ Data and New Results from MINOS
Alexandre Sousa
Following a 7-year run with the MINOS experiment from 2005 to 2012, the MINOS+ long-baseline neutrino experiment started operations in September 2013. Utilizing the MINOS Near and…
Analysis of Neutral Current Interactions in MINOS: A Search for Sterile Neutrinos
Alexandre Sousa
A search for disappearance of active neutrinos over a baseline of 735 km was conducted using the NuMI neutrino beam and the MINOS detectors. The data analyzed correspond to an expo…
Searching for neutrino polarizability at DUNE
Sam Carey, Pedro Machado, Gil Paz +4
We perform an initial study of DUNE's sensitivity to enhanced neutrino polarizability within models of light scalar mediators. We identify two possible signatures of polarizability…
From PDF to RAG-Ready: Evaluating Document Conversion Frameworks for Domain-Specific Question Answering
José Guilherme Marques dos Santos, Ricardo Yang, Rui Humberto Pereira +8
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems depend critically on the quality of document preprocessing, yet no prior study has evaluated PDF processing frameworks by their impact…
Building an AI-native Research Ecosystem for Experimental Particle Physics: A Community Vision
Thea Klaeboe Aarrestad, Alaa Abdelhamid, Haider Abidi +457
Experimental particle physics seeks to understand the universe by probing its fundamental particles and forces and exploring how they govern the large-scale processes that shape co…
Snowmass Neutrino Frontier Report

During the past decade, long-baseline neutrino experiments played a fundamental role in confirming neutrino flavor change and in measuring the neutrino mixing matrix with high prec…
Scalable DAQ system operating the CHIPS-5 neutrino detector
Belén Alonso Rancurel, Son Cao, Thomas J. Carroll +57
The CHIPS R&D project focuses on development of low-cost water Cherenkov neutrino detectors through novel design strategies and resourceful engineering. This work presents an end-t…
ACE Science Workshop Report
Stefania Gori, Nhan Tran, Karri DiPetrillo +20
We summarize the Fermilab Accelerator Complex Evolution (ACE) Science Workshop, held on June 14-15, 2023. The workshop presented the strategy for the ACE program in two phases: ACE…
MINOS Search for Sterile Neutrinos
Alexandre Sousa
Using a NuMI beam exposure of 7.1 /times 10^20 protons-on-target, the MINOS long-baseline experiment has performed a search for active to sterile neutrino mixing over a distance of…
Sterile neutrino search in the NOvA Far Detector
Sijith Edayath, Adam Aurisano, Alexandre Sousa +3
The majority of neutrino oscillation experiments have obtained evidence for neutrino oscillations that are compatible with the three-flavor model. Explaining anomalous results from…
Neutrino Tridents at DUNE
Wolfgang Altmannshofer, Stefania Gori, Justo Martin-Albo +2
The DUNE near detector will collect an unprecedented large number of neutrino interactions, allowing the precise measurement of rare processes such as neutrino trident production,…
The Long-Baseline Neutrino Experiment: Exploring Fundamental Symmetries of the Universe
LBNE Collaboration, Corey Adams, David Adams +482
The preponderance of matter over antimatter in the early Universe, the dynamics of the supernova bursts that produced the heavy elements necessary for life and whether protons even…
Predicting leptonic CP violation via minimization of neutrino entanglement
Gonçalo M. Quinta, Alexandre Sousa, Yasser Omar
We show how a minimization principle of quantum entanglement between the oscillating flavors of a neutrino leads to a unique prediction for the CP-violation phase in the neutrino s…
