It \nis used for cancer detection \, as well as for heart and brain diseases\, \nand other physiological pr ocesses.\n\nPETALO is a project that consists of a PET system based on liq uid xenon \n(LXe) instead of crystals as the scintillator material. LXe i s a very \ngood candidate for use in PET due to its scintillation propert ies: high \nlight yield and fast decay time. PETALO uses SiPMs for readou t and fast \nelectronics from PETsys to be applied in TOF-PET technology. \n\nIn this talk\, I will first introduce the principles of a PET scanner\ , \nand then I will focus on explaining how our first prototype PETit\,  \ndeveloped following the PETALO concept\, works. Finally\, I will present  \nthe results on energy and time resolution obtained with this prototype \, \nas well as the problems we faced in achieving them.\nhttps://indico. ific.uv.es/event/8544/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

The analysis uses the topology of two high-pT taus produced back-to-back in the transverse plane.

Southern Denmark\, QTC)\nAbstract:  We address the signal-to-noise problem in lattice field theory by recast ing it as a problem in variance-optimal transport. The exponential degrada tion of the signal-to-noise ratio is identified as a consequence of poor o verlap between the base and target distributions in a source reweighting s cheme. We introduce an infinitesimal transport map and derive a perturbati ve expansion of the KL divergence that determines the optimal velocity fie ld. The first-order term vanishes by Stein's identity\, and the problem re duces to a Poisson equation for the generator of overdamped Langevin dynam ics. For interacting theories\, the Feynman–Kac formula provides a forma l solution\, establishing a connection to linear response theory and the f luctuation-dissipation theorem. We present preliminary numerical results f or scalar lattice field theories.\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8543/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

In this semin ar\, I will discuss how flavor symmetries can guide the study of baryon-nu mber-violating (BNV) effects in the SMEFT. After briefly reviewing the mai n nucleon-decay signatures and the relevant dimension-six operators\, I wi ll present their classification under different flavor-symmetry assumption s and the resulting phenomenology. In particular\, I will show that in som e flavor scenarios the interplay with tiny neutrino masses allows proton-d ecay bounds to be compatible with BNV scales in the multi-TeV range.

Unlike in flat spacetim e QFT\, curvature requires renormalization already at the level of the fre e theory. This yields a renormalized stress-energy tensor for quantum fiel ds on a given background\, capturing effects such as Hawking radiation of black holes and particle production in expanding universes. The next step is to include the effect of quantum fields on spacetime geometry\, the so- called backreaction problem.\n\nIn this seminar\, I introduce this framewo rk\, highlight its main challenges\, and present effective two-dimensional black hole models that address them while retaining the essential quantum features. In two dimensions\, the renormalized stress-energy tensor can b e written in closed form in terms of the metric\, transforming the semicla ssical equations into a second-order system of PDEs. This makes it possibl e to study the full dynamics\, including backreaction.\nhttps://indico.ifi c.uv.es/event/8561/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

These approaches have been shown to represent tensor-network states and states with volume-law entanglement efficiently. However\, the key pr operty underlying the limitations of Neural Quantum State techniques remai ns an open question.\nWithin quantum information theory\, among all possib le unitary transformations that can be applied to an \nN-qubit state\, the re exists a subgroup known as the Clifford unitaries. Although these trans formations can generate entanglement\, they are entirely classically simul able and therefore provide no quantum advantage. As a result\, quantifying the non-stabilizerness of a given computational approach is important for assessing its expressibility in representing arbitrary quantum many-body states.\nI will focus in particular on recent results highlighting the lim itations of Neural Quantum States in representing the ground-state wave fu nctions of atomic nuclei in the nuclear shell model within variational Mon te Carlo calculations\, thereby testing the limits of classical computing in strongly correlated quantum systems.\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8 557/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

By solving the Many-Body Schrödinger equation using only fundame ntal physical constants and atomic structures (without empirical fitting p arameters) this approach provides a predictive\, unbiased description of m aterial properties that can be directly validated by experiments.\n\nIn th is seminar\, I will provide a pedagogical overview of the state-of-the-art theoretical frameworks used to determine the electronic and optical prope rties of semiconductors. We will discuss the transition from ground-state properties via Density Functional Theory (DFT) to quasiparticle excitation s using the GW approximation\, and finally\, the description of excitonic effects through the Bethe-Salpeter Equation (BSE). Furthermore\, we will t ouch upon non-equilibrium optical properties by exploring the equation of motion for the density matrix. By bridging theoretical foundations with re al-world results\, this seminar aims to demonstrate the powerful capabilit y of first-principles methods to predict the behavior of semiconducting ma terials."\n \n\nJoin online:  https://uv-es.zoom.us/j/94847718912\nhttps ://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8564/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

Despite its success\, unanswered questions remain: What is the mech anism for neutrinos to acquire mass? Why is Charge-Parity symmetry highly conserved in QCD? What is the reason for the particle-antiparticle asymmet ry in the Universe? And what is really dark matter?\n\n\nExtremely sensiti ve detectors placed deep underground\, such as dual-phase liquid xenon tim e projection chambers\, can aid to answer these questions. In particular\, the XLZD Observatory is a planned 80-tonne liquid xenon time projection c hamber\, with high sensitivity to a plethora of rare interactions of matte r. Low background terrestrial experiments are complementary to searches in accelerators\, in an exciting research field that spans particle\, astro- and nuclear physics.\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\nThis Seminar has received fundin g/support from Research Project CIDEXG/2022/20 funded by Generalitat Valen cia.\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8545/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

In this talk\, I show how symbolic regression offers a practi cal alternative: lightweight analytical formulas derived directly from NLO simulation data. Using the PySR package\, we recover closed-form expressi ons for the full set of angular coefficients as functions of transverse mo mentum\, rapidity\, and invariant mass. Beyond efficiency\, these expressi ons shed light on the underlying physics in a way that neural networks can not. Our results demonstrate that symbolic regression can produce accurate and generalisable expressions that match Monte Carlo predictions within u ncertainties\, while preserving interpretability and providing insight int o the kinematic dependence of angular observables.\nhttps://indico.ific.uv .es/event/8582/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

Remarkably\, when applied to the Compton tensor\, the resulting amplitude decomposes into four separate ga uge invariant pieces that are naturally organized around a heavy-mass exp ansion.

Employing the formalism of thermal field theory to compu te in-medium self-energies and mixing rates\, we will see that scalars and KK gravitons with masses smaller than the plasma frequency in the stellar core can be efficiently produced by resonant mixing with in-medium electr omagnetic excitations\, and that this previously neglected effect gives th e dominant robust contribution to supernova and/or red giant cooling.

In a variety of scenarios their breaking is associated with the fo rmation and expansion of bubbles of true vacuum in what is called a first order phase transition. In this context\, Electroweak Baryogenesis\, a me chanism proposed over 40 years ago\, takes advantage of Electroweak symmet ry breaking and offers a way to address the baryon asymmetry of the unive rse\, as all three Sakharov conditions can be realised on the walls of sa id bubbles. Additionally\, the dynamics of bubble collisions could provide interesting gravitational waves signals that could be detected in the yea rs to come. \n\nAlthough the Standard Model contains all required ingred ients\, it has long been established that the electroweak phase transition does not proceed via nucleation of bubbles\, rather it is a smooth crosso ver. Additionally\, the smallness of the CP violation in SM is insufficien t to account for the observed baryon asymmetry. \n\nExtending the SM sca lar sector can\, however\, drastically modify the dynamics of symmetry b reaking and provide a richer vacuum structure. In this talk\, I will ana lyse one such extension\, the Zee model\, first proposed to generating ne utrino masses at loop level via the introduction of additional scalar degr ees of freedom. We shall show how in this framework the electroweak phase transition actually proceeds via bubble nucleation\, and how it could be s trong enough to generate the observed baryon asymmetry of the universe. \ nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8589/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

In this approach\, insights from detailed studies of local quantu m neutrino transport are used to formulate effective prescriptions that mo dify classical neutrino distributions\, enabling their incorporation into large-scale simulations. Over the past year\, the first supernova and neu tron star merger simulations including these subgrid treatments have been performed\, a key step toward fully incorporating neutrino physics into su ch models and assessing its wide-ranging implications.\nhttps://indico.ifi c.uv.es/event/8590/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

Th e conventional SN1987A cooling bound constrains the dark photon mass-mixin g parameter space by requiring that the luminosity from the proto-neutron star core not exceed the observed neutrino emission. In this work\, we rev isit these limits by including the effect of dark matter (DM) captured ins ide the progenitor star before collapse. The trapped DM acts as an additio nal scattering target for dark photons\, modifying their free-streaming le ngth and\, consequently\, the supernova cooling rate. We perform a self-co nsistent analysis for both annihilating and asymmetric DM scenarios\, inco rporating light-mediator effects in the capture rate calculation. For anni hilating DM\, the equilibrium density remains too small to affect the boun ds significantly. In contrast\, symmetric DM can accumulate to large densi ties\, leading to the formation of a “dark photosphere” that suppresse s the dark-photon luminosity. The results presented are intended as a proo f-of-principle demonstration of how astrophysical dark matter populations can alter supernova cooling constraints and do not provide precision excl usion limits on any given model.\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8558/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

Sea rches for new mechanisms of CP (or T)-violation are being carried out in p recision measurements of electric dipole moments of particles\, nuclei\, a toms\, and molecules as well as in properly selected correlations in decay processes. Positronium (Ps) is a purely leptonic state that decays into p hotons. The observation of a CP violating correlation associated with the decay process\, at the current level of sensitivity\, would provide a sign ature of physics beyond the Standard Model. A CP violating correlation can be formed in Ps decay\, involving the tensor polarization and the momenta of the two highest energy photons in the three-photon decay of ortho-Ps. We have designed and built a new apparatus to search for CP-violation in o rtho-Ps decay with an order of magnitude improved sensitivity relative to previous work. This talk will present the driving elements for its design and optimization\, which includes a photon detector array and the Ps forma tion medium and will discuss the improved sensitivity of the design.\n\n\n https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8574/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

K. (Assistant Professor\, Department of > Physics\, Cochin University of Science and Technology\, Kerala\, Ind ia)\nThe study of nuclear structure and its evolution across the nuclear c hart remains one of the most fundamental and challenging problems in moder n physics. Despite significant progress in theoretical modeling\, certain regions of the nuclear landscape\, particularly near the drip lines and am ong superheavy elements (SHE)\, continue to present substantial theoretica l and experimental uncertainties.\n\nRecent advances in Artificial Intelli gence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) offer a promising new paradigm for mo deling complex physical systems by uncovering nonlinear correlations embed ded within nuclear data. These data-driven approaches have the potential t o complement\, and in some cases surpass\, computationally intensive many- body methods through improved inference\, uncertainty quantification\, and the discovery of novel empirical relationships.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present recent work carried out in this direction at Cochin University of Science and Technology\, Kerala\, India.\n\n \nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/ event/8601/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

This colloquium offers an overview of the structure of Monte Carlo simulation in the ATLAS experiment\, including the accurat e description of geometry and materials and the modeling of physics proces ses with the Geant4 toolkit. Major upgrades to CERN's accelerator complex are now being undertaken to increase the data taking rate by a factor of 7 -10\, putting stress on computing resources. The advent of artificial inte lligence\, particularly generative AI\, is currently poised to complement particle transport paradigms which are essentially unchanged for decades.

In this talk \, I will first discuss the gravitational production of scalars during inf lation. I will compare Bogolyubov coefficient and Starobinsky stochastic a pproaches\, showing that they only agree in the limit of infinitely long i nflation. High-scale inflation is very efficient in particle production\, leading to constraints on the existence of free\, light\, and stable scala rs: such particles are viable only if their masses are below the eV scale or if the reheating temperature is in the GeV range. These constraints mot ivate scenarios in which dark matter is produced via low-temperature freez e-in. In this framework\, I will consider warm Higgs portal dark matter. I n scenarios where the Standard Model thermal bath never reaches high tempe ratures\, dark matter production can be suppressed. This allows for a sign ificant dark matter-Higgs coupling\, enabling warm dark matter detection v ia Higgs decay at colliders. I will further discuss the strong Lyman-α bo und on the dark matter mass\, excluding masses below 50-100 keV\, and show how the shape of the warm dark matter momentum distribution is highly non -thermal and not captured by the commonly used αβγ-parametrization.\n\n https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8592/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

These processes are essential for pro bing neutrino properties and exploring physics beyond the Standard Model. However\, reliable determination of NMEs remains a major challenge in nucl ear physics.\nA novel experimental strategy seeks to constrain NMEs throug h the study of electromagnetic (EM) transitions from isobaric analog state s (IAS)\, providing an indirect but powerful probe of the relevant nuclear structure components.\nIn this presentation\, I will discuss the joint ef forts of the LNL-CSIC group toward this goal\, highlighting ongoing experi ments\, complementary methodological approaches\, and the broader implicat ions of this program for reducing theoretical uncertainties in NME calcula tions.\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8552/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

Focusing on the hadronic $\\tau$-decay co rrection $\\delta^{(0)}$\, we employ complementary approaches—Levin-type transformations and Shanks transformations implemented via Wynn’s $\\va repsilon$-algorithm and its generalizations\, to resum the divergent FOPT series and extract higher-order information. These methods generate ration al approximants that encode the large-order behavior of the series\, yield ing stable and consistent predictions for the coefficients $c_{n\,1}$ acro ss independent transformation schemes.  We show that Levin-type transform ations\, through explicit remainder estimates\, and Shanks-type transforma tions\, via elimination of leading asymptotic errors\, provide complementa ry reconstructions of the same underlying structure. Together\, they captu re renormalon-driven factorial growth and provide a data-driven approximat ion to the underlying Borel behavior without explicit multi-loop input. Th e resulting resummed predictions for $\\delta^{(0)}$ exhibit improved conv ergence and reduced truncation uncertainties. Our results establish sequen ce transformations as a systematic\, model-independent bridge between fini te-order perturbation theory and its asymptotic completion\, with direct i mplications for precision QCD phenomenology.\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/ev ent/8576/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

Bey ond its beauty\, a total eclipse is a striking reminder of a central theme in astrophysics: magnetic fields shape what we see\, from faint plasma st ructures to bursts of energetic particles and coherent radio emission.\n\n Like the Sun\, many nearby stars and ultracool dwarfs are magnetically act ive across the electromagnetic spectrum. Over the last decade\, new wideba nd\, high-time-resolution radio facilities have transformed the field: aur oral bursts\, rotational modulation\, and broadband polarimetry are now be ing used as quantitative probes of magnetic geometry\, particle accelerati on\, stellar winds\, and star–planet interactions—and they are opening a realistic path toward detecting and characterising exoplanetary magneto spheres.\n\nTo mark this rare celestial event\, this conference will take place in Valencia\, Spain from 10–12 August 2026\, bringing together an international community working on stars\, ultracool dwarfs\, and radio e xoplanet science. To foster deep discussion and sustained interaction\, at tendance will be capped at 50 participants. A dedicated eclipse field sess ion will allow participants to share the totality experience together as p art of the conference week.\n\nKey themes include:\n\n\n \n Stellar winds and star–planet interaction.\n \n \n Stars and ultracool dwarf magnetism .\n \n \n Radio exoplanet searches and what magnetospheric detections woul d imply for environments and habitability\n \n \n Multi-wavelength magneti c activity diagnostics\, connecting radio to optical/UV/X-ray signatures a nd variability\n \n \n Next-generation facilities and roadmaps for magneti c astrophysics (e.g.\, LOFAR 2.0\, SKA-Low\, ngVLA)\n \n\n\nConfirmed invi ted speakers:\n\n\n \n Aline Vidotto\, Leiden University\n \n \n Joe Calli ngham\, University of Amsterdam/ASTRON\n \n \n Melodie Kao\, Lowell Obser vatory\n \n \n Rachel Osten\, John Hopkins University\n \n \n Jean-Mathia s Grießmeier\, Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS).\n \ n\n\nImportant Dates\n\n\n \n Deadline for abstract submission: March 23\ , 2026\n \n\n\nRegistrations will be processed on a rolling basis on a fir st-come\, first-served basis\, while ensuring a balanced scientific progra mme.\n\n\n \n Notification of acceptance.

The disagre ement is expressed in the value of cosmic expansion as well as in the grow th of large-scale structure in the Universe. New cosmological surveys\, ma ny of which are European\, may expose tension in additional areas of the c oncordance model. The question of cosmological tensions can be confronted in a number of ways. Firstly\, survey data needs to be further analyzed fo r potential systematic uncertainties or biases. Secondly\, there have been numerous advances in approaches to data analysis and statistics\, some of which provide less dependence on cosmological models to make cosmological parameter estimates. Lastly\, there are a plethora of new proposals from fundamental physics which range from novel neutrino physics to dark energy proposals (and others) which may contribute to a solution to the cosmolog ical tensions problem. These represent the three research themes through w hich cosmological tensions will either be alleviated or resolved.\n\nCosmo Verse@Bilbao 2026 (15 September – 17 September 2026 & 18 September Manag ement Committee Meeting) is the fourth annual conference in a series of co nferences that aim to establish a link between the different research area s in cosmology with the main focus on challenges of tensions in cosmologic al survey data.\n\nThis conference is organized within the COST Action ini tiative CA21136 – Addressing observational tensions in cosmology with sy stematics and fundamental physics (CosmoVerse).\n\nThe first conference ca lled CosmoVerse@Lisbon 2023 took place between 30 May and 1st June 2023.
