Bridging the Vendor Gap: Enabling AMD GPU Support for Awkward Array via ROCm/HIP for the HL-LHC Era

Ianna Osborne, Maxym Naumchyk, Tai Sakuma +2

The High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) will demand order-of-magnitude gains in analysis throughput, and increasingly those gains must come from GPUs that are not made by a single vendor.…

Training on Data Analysis Reproducibility via Containerization with Apptainer

Roy Cruz Candelaria, Wouter Deconinck, Aman Desai +10

We present the material and resources developed for training physicists on containerization technologies enabled by Apptainer. In the context of analysis preservation using Apptain…

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…

Computational Mirror Symmetry

Mehmet Demirtas, Manki Kim, Liam McAllister +2

We present an efficient algorithm for computing the prepotential in compactifications of type II string theory on mirror pairs of Calabi-Yau threefolds in toric varieties. Applying…

CYTools: A Software Package for Analyzing Calabi-Yau Manifolds

Mehmet Demirtas, Andres Rios-Tascon, Liam McAllister

We provide a user's guide to version 1.0 of the software package CYTools, which we designed to compute the topological data of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric varieties. CYTools…

A Cosmological Constant That is Too Small

Mehmet Demirtas, Manki Kim, Liam McAllister +2

We construct a vacuum of string theory in which the magnitude of the vacuum energy is in Planck units. Regrettably, the sign of the vacuum energy is negative, and som…

Small Cosmological Constants in String Theory

Mehmet Demirtas, Manki Kim, Liam McAllister +2

We construct supersymmetric vacua of type IIB string theory in compactifications on orientifolds of Calabi-Yau threefold hypersurfaces. We first find explicit orie…

Bounding the Kreuzer-Skarke Landscape

Mehmet Demirtas, Liam McAllister, Andres Rios-Tascon

We study Calabi-Yau threefolds with large Hodge numbers by constructing and counting triangulations of reflexive polytopes. By counting points in the associated secondary polytopes…
