The retrieval of particle size distributions from measured scattering or attenuation data constitutes a classic inverse problem, whereby one seeks to infer an underlying size spectrum from indirect ...
It sounds fantastical, but it's a reality for the scientists who work at the world's largest particle collider. In an underground tunnel some 350 feet beneath the France–Switzerland border, a huge ...
The model we have for understanding the universe’s fundamental particles is a bit like a gearbox: one tiny change to any one single particles’ properties throws off the mechanics of the other ...
The increasing complexity and high-dimensional nature of real-world optimization problems necessitate the development of advanced optimization algorithms. Traditional Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) ...
One of the major challenges in particle physics is how to interpret large data sets that consist of many different observables in the context of models with different parameters. A new paper published ...
A new tool to break down and segment large data set problems and problems with many parameters in particle physics could have a wide range of applications. One of the major challenges in particle ...
Recently, I watched a fellow particle physicist talk about a calculation he had pushed to a new height of precision. His tool? A 1980s-era computer program called FORM. Particle physicists use some of ...
