The corresponding pe rturbative series is then rearranged and partially resummed into a “univ ersal global background” supporting even a uniformly convergent analytic functional expansion of all non-BPS monopole profiles for all radii. Thes e findings are explicitly demonstrated at the maximally non-BPS setting fo r which the ratio of the quartic scalar coupling to the (square of the) ga uge coupling goes to infinity\; a perfect match to what is known about the local expansions of its profile at zero and infinite radii is achieved \, along with simple analytic prescriptions for the locally inaccessible n umerical parameters therein.\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8612/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

After the Big Bang and billions years of evolution\, the universe has provided us around 2000 nuclei. Based on the information from these nuclei\, nuclear theory has been established. T he steady progress over the past twenty years in the development of high i ntensity stable beams and of beams of radioactive isotopes has allowed to vastly expand the objectives of experimental nuclear research. With more t han 2000 nuclei produced artificially and around 6000 expected to be produ ced in the facilities in operation or under construction in China\, Europe \, Japan and US\, nuclear physics meets serious challenges. It is becoming possible to study in the laboratory a range of nuclear reactions that tak e place in exploding stars providing crucial information to understand how the chemical elements that we find on Earth were formed. To achieve this ambitious goal\, one needs to study the characteristics of unstable (radio active) nuclei through their decays and the various nuclear interactions. Such unstable nuclei have also a wide range of applications including nucl ear medicine\, climate changes etc..\n\nIn this presentation I will report on the AGATA -ray tracking array and on the experimental campaign pres ently ongoing at LNL including results from the previous GANIL campaign. I will also present future programs of the new SPES ISOL radioactive ion be am facility focused on nuclear astrophysics and applications. Concerning a strophysics\, we have recently measured at ANL (USA) the 85Kr (n\, ) re action using the surrogate reaction method with the HELIOS solenoidal spec trometer. Referring to application I will also report on the results of th e REMO-ClimOcean project\, performed in Spain and in Italy within the EU P NRR program using radiotracers to monitor the adaptation of marine calcify ing species to the new climatic conditions. \n\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.e s/event/8663/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

Valencia)\nSemi-leptonic pr ocesses involving pions are used to test the Standard Model with high prec ision. On the theory side\, the evaluation of radiative corrections is a c rucial ingredient for a robust comparison between theoretical predictions and experimental measurements. In this talk\, I will present the first com plete effective field theory treatment of radiative corrections in pion $\ \beta$ decay ($\\pi^{\\pm} \\rightarrow \\pi^0 \\\, e \\\, \\nu_{e}$) and $\\tau^{\\pm} \\rightarrow  \\pi^{\\pm} \\\, \\pi^{0} \\\, \\nu_{\\tau}$ beyond leading-logarithmic accuracy within the Standard Model. \nAs main applications\, I will first show how the theoretical uncertainty for the S M prediction of $V_{ud}$ based on pion  $\\beta$ decay is reduced by a fa ctor of three\, making it negligible even beyond the reach of future exper iments. Second\, I will present an evaluation of isospin-breaking correcti ons to $\\tau \\rightarrow \\pi \\pi \\nu_{\\tau}$\, which are an essentia l ingredient for a future $\\tau$-based determination of the hadronic-vacu um-polarization contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. \nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8682/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

Hadronic jets are everywhere in the ATLAS experiment\, serving as vita l pieces of almost every major physics analysis. Because of this\, even a tiny mismatch in how we measure jet energies can completely stall our prog ress.\n\nIn this seminar\, I will take you behind the scenes of how the AT LAS collaboration achieves world-class jet energy scale (JES) precision\, focusing on the crucial in-situ calibration stage. We will look at how we use well-understood reference objects—like $Z$ bosons and photons—to b alance against jets\, allowing us to correct the subtle differences betwee n our data and simulations. Finally\, I’ll connect the dots between thes e technical calibrations and their massive payoff for precision physics. U sing the top quark mass measurements as a prime example\, we’ll explore how mastering the JES or bJES allows us to chip away at our dominant syste matic uncertainties and push forward the precision needed to stress-test t he Standard Model.\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8672/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

In this talk\, I will present recent progress i n analytic two-loop electroweak calculations at high energies [2603.08789] and corresponding multi-loop techniques. As a key example\, I will discus s Higgs boson pair production\, where NLO EW corrections reach the level o f −10% at high energies. By exploiting the mathematical structure in thi s limit\, we obtain more than one hundred expansion terms\, enabling preci se predictions in the phenomenologically relevant phase space region at th e LHC.\n\nI will further discuss how precise control of electroweak effect s enables realistic probes of new physics. In particular\, at future e+e- colliders such as FCC-ee\, electroweak loop effects can significantly enha nce observable deviations predicted in models with extended Higgs sectors [2509.05421].\n\nThese results demonstrate that advancements in electrowea k calculations can translate into powerful tools for precision Higgs and B SM studies at current and future colliders.\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/eve nt/8643/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.

At the same time\, their collective pho non modes offer a natural continuous-variable Hilbert space with bosonic s tatistics. This hybrid DV/CV structure offers a promising route to simulat ing quantum field theories with both matter and gauge degrees of freedom.  \n\nIn this talk\,  I will discuss how phonon modes of trapped ions can be used to encode gauge bosons\, and present a CV/DV quantum signal proce ssing protocol to compute Wilson lines. This construction can serve as a s ubroutine for full quantum simulations of lattice gauge theories\, and may also provide quantum-accelerated methods for classical lattice gauge theo ry simulations.\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8673/ LOCATION:1001-Primera-1-1-1 - Paterna.
