16 Sensitivity to mixing and CP violation in $D^0 \to K_S^0 \pi^+ \pi^-$ Decays with 2024 LHCb data

The $D^0 \to K_S^0 \pi^+ \pi^-$ decay channel plays a central role in precision studies of charm mixing and indirect CP violation.
In this talk, we present the status of the time-dependent binned analysis of this decay using data collected by the LHCb experiment during Run 3 in 2024.
This dataset benefits from the fully software-based trigger system introduced in Run 3, which significantly enhances the efficiency for reconstructing hadronic charm decays.
In particular, the new GPU-accelerated HLT1 trigger selects tracks based on displacement and kinematics using a refined approach compared to the Run 2 hardware-based system, which relied heavily on calorimetry.
This leads to a nearly threefold increase in signal yield per unit luminosity and a substantial reduction in trigger-induced correlations between decay time and Dalitz plot position, previously a dominant source of systematic uncertainty.
We present the analysis strategy and demonstrate the improved sensitivity to the mixing and CP-violating parameters x, y.
The results highlight the impact of the upgraded \lhcb trigger system in enabling more precise and robust charm physics measurements.

Speaker: Alessia Anelli (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)

17 Development of a CP symmetry violation measurement system

In this work, we present the development of an experimental apparatus aimed at testing the violation of CP symmetry in the decay of positronium. The experimental approach involves the detection of photons emitted in this process using the Nossa Caixa gamma spectrometer and the application of a magnetic field to manipulate the Ps states. Two complementary methods will be used to analyze the decay of ortho-positronium (o-Ps): the inversion of the normal to the plane of the decay photons and the inversion of the population of the Ps magnetic substates.
By examining the angular correlation between three (or more) photons emitted in the decay of ortho-positronium immersed in a magnetic field, it will be possible to establish an upper limit for the violation of CP symmetry or, potentially, to detect its existence. The spectrometer used consists of an array of 108 LYSO(Ce) crystals, recently built at the Open Laboratory of Nuclear Physics and Applications (LAFNA), in the Department of Nuclear Physics of the Institute of Physics of USP (DFN/IFUSP). In addition, a new plastic scintillator detector is being developed for the detection of positrons from radioactive sources, allowing measurements in temporal coincidence with gamma rays. Preliminary results of this detector will be presented.

Speaker: Jully Vanessa Leandro Nascimento (Universidade de São Paulo)

18 Search for CP violation in $B\to h^+ h'{}^-$ decays at LHCb

Recently, a strong tension in the global fit to $B\to h^+ h'{}^-\,(h\in\{\pi,K\})$ decay parameters has been highlighted by the theoretical community. These decays can be probed with high precision at LHCb: thanks to the high centre-of-mass energy provided by the LHC, it is possible to investigate time-dependent observables which are inaccessible at $b$-factory experiments. In this talk, recent results for $C\!P$-violation observables in $B\to h^+ h'{}^-$ decays collected during the LHCb Run 2 $p$-$p$ collision campaign will be presented.

Speaker: Marco Caporale (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)

19 High segmentation shashlik calorimeter R&D for future intensity frontier experiments

The HIKE experiment was intended to continue the successful tradition of kaon experiments at CERN, building on the achievements of NA62 and exploiting the availability of a high-intensity beam together with an advanced detector design. In particular, the new shashlik electromagnetic calorimeter (MEC) was designed to reach a time resolution of approximately $100\,\text{ps}$, while maintaining an energy resolution comparable to that of the NA62 electromagnetic calorimeter. Although HIKE was not approved as an experiment, the MEC project represented an important test bench for the development of high-performance sampling electromagnetic calorimeters, with technologies of direct interest for future projects such as the second phase of the LHCb electromagnetic calorimeter Upgrade 2, to be installed during Long Shutdown 4 and operated in the HL-LHC era.

This presentation will outline the current status of the MEC design, including results from detailed calorimeter simulations carried out with the Geant4 toolkit in synergy with the investigation of readout options. It will also present the status of the analysis of a test beam data collected at the CERN PS T9 facility in September 2024 and discuss plans for a new test beam scheduled for the first week of September 2025 on the same beamline, where a prototype with double-side readout will be tested to improve the time resolution.

Speaker: Ilaria Rosa (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)

20 The LS3 enhancement of the LHCb electromagnetic calorimeter

The LHCb experiment is going to face much higher occupancies and radiation levels in its high-luminosity phase, requiring major upgrades of the electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL). As a first step, an enhancement is planned during Long Shutdown 3 (LS3) of the LHC to mitigate ageing in the central region and to ensure stable performance after Run 3. This upgrade introduces Spaghetti Calorimeter (SpaCal) technology into the innermost part of the ECAL. A total of 176 new SpaCal modules with radiation-tolerant scintillating plastic fibres will be installed: the 32 closest to the beam line will use 3D-printed tungsten absorbers, while the remaining 144 will employ lead absorbers produced with a novel casting approach. Both designs have been studied extensively in test-beam campaigns at DESY and CERN, where the measured performance matches simulations and meets the requirements for operation at higher luminosities. The scintillating fibres will be coupled via radiation-hard light guides to fast photon detectors, with new front-end electronics for 3072 additional readout channels. Modifications to the ECAL support platform are also foreseen to accommodate the installation. In addition, the existing Shashlik modules will be rearranged to better follow the occupancy map, improving uniformity at high luminosity. The LS3 intervention will not only restore ECAL performance for Run 4, but also anticipate several features of the PicoCal upgrade foreseen for LS4.

21 The X(3872) puzzle: insights from its radiative decays

Exotic hadron spectroscopy plays a crucial role in deepening our understanding of the confining regime of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). The discovery of the $X(3872)$ in 2003 by the Belle collaboration marked a turning point in hadron physics, as it represented the first strong candidate for an exotic meson beyond the conventional quark model. To date, the internal structure of the $X(3872)$ remains elusive, and several competing theoretical interpretations are still under investigation. These include a standard charmonium state ($c\bar{c}$), a compact tetraquark configuration ($c\bar{c}q\bar{q}$), and a loosely bound $D^0\bar{D}^{*0}$ molecular state.

One of the most sensitive observables to probe the inner dynamics of this state is the ratio $\mathcal{R}$ between the branching fractions of its radiative decays: $X(3872) \to J/\psi\,\gamma$ and $X(3872) \to \psi'\,\gamma$. Several theoretical works have shown that the value of $\mathcal{R}$ is highly dependent on the underlying structure and wavefunction of the $X(3872)$. Recently, the LHCb collaboration has provided the most precise measurement of this ratio to date, offering a stringent test for competing models.

In this talk, I will present a theoretical framework for computing the mass spectrum of compact tetraquarks using the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. This method allows for the separation of the dynamics of heavy quarks ($c\bar{c}$) from those of the light quark pair ($q\bar{q}$), adapting a technique well-known in QED to the non-perturbative regime of QCD. We will discuss how this approximation can be applied to a confining theory like QCD, and compare our predictions with known exotic candidates listed in the PDG.

Moreover, this approach enables the construction of internal quark wavefunctions within the hadron, which proves essential for calculating $\mathcal{R}$. I will show how these theoretical predictions compare with experimental data from LHCb and with expectations from alternative theoretical models.

22 Studying the beauty mesons structure with radiative leptonic decays at the LHCb experiment

The rare radiative leptonic decay $B^+\to\ell^+\nu_\ell\gamma$, with $\ell=\mu,e$, is considered a golden channel to probe the internal structure of the $B$ meson through its Light-Cone Distribution Amplitude (LCDA). Predicted by the Standard Model with a Branching Ratio (BR) of $\mathcal{O}(10^{-6})$, it has not yet been observed. The most stringent upper limit on its BR has been set by the Belle experiment, while a search at a hadron collider such as LHC was long deemed unfeasible. A novel approach has been developed at the LHCb experiment, which exploits photons that convert to $e^+e^-$ pairs in the material of the VErtex LOcator (VELO), allowing to extract the secondary $B$-vertex. Again, since the information on the final-state neutrino is lost, the corrected mass of the $\ell^+e^+e^-$ system serves as the main observable. A crucial aspect of the strategy is the modelling of backgrounds, dominated by the neutral meson decays $\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma$ and $\eta\to\gamma\gamma$. The LHCb dataset also provides sensitivity to the analogous $B_c^+$ decay modes. The ongoing search for the decay $B^+\to\mu^+\nu_\mu\gamma$ with Run 2 data shows promising sensitivity, and a parallel analysis using Run 3 data has started. Benefiting from the latest detector upgrade and improved trigger efficiencies, the current Run 3 study targets both muon and electron channels with the aim of getting to the first observation of these $B^+_{(c)}$ decays, or at least of significantly constraining the existing upper limits on their BRs.

23 Search for rare $D^0 \to \pi^+ \pi^- e^+ e^-$ and $D^0 \to K^+ K^- e^+ e^-$ decays at LHCb

Rare semileptonic four-body charm decays such as $D^0\to h^+h^-e^+e^-$ (with $h=\pi,K$) can proceed via long-distance (LD) resonant contributions or short-distance (SD) Flavor Changing Neutral Currents (FCNC) $c\to ue^+e^-$, which are highly suppressed in the Standard Model. These modes are therefore sensitive to potential new physics effects and provide a probe of Lepton Flavour Universality through a comparison with their muonic counterparts $D^0\to h^+h^-\mu^+\mu^-$.

Recently, the LHCb experiment has performed a search for $D^0\to \pi^+\pi^-e^+e^-$ and $D^0\to K^+K^-e^+e^-$ decays using Run 2 data at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV collected in 2015-2018 (corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 6 fb$^{-1}$). The decay $D^0\to \pi^+\pi^-e^+e^-$ was observed for the first time when the dielectron pair is compatible with coming from $\rho(770)$, $\omega(782)$ or $\phi(1020)$ intermediate resonances. The decay $D^0\to K^-\pi^+[e^-e^+]_{\rho/\omega}$ was used as normalization channel. To account for the very different background levels and invariant-mass shapes, the dataset was split into events with and without reconstructed bremsstrahlung associated with the electrons. The measured branching fractions are
$BF(D^0\to\pi^+\pi^-[e^+e^-]_{\rho/\omega}) = (4.5\pm1.0\pm0.7\pm0.6)\times10^{-7}$ and
$BF(D^0\to\pi^+\pi^-[e^+e^-]_{\phi}) = (3.8\pm0.7\pm0.4\pm0.5)\times10^{-7}$.

With the enhanced LHCb trigger capabilities and large collected statistics in Run 3, updated searches and branching-fraction measurements are underway. Preliminary studies on the normalization channel indicate a significant increase in signal yields.

24 L’Esperimento ALADDIN ad LHC

LADDIN (An LHC Apparatus for Direct Dipole moments INvestigation, https://aladdin.web.cern.ch/) è un esperimento compatto a bersaglio fisso proposto per LHC, concepito per ottenere misure di precisione senza precedenti dei momenti di dipolo magnetico (MDM) ed elettrico (EDM) dei barioni con charm. Il suo design innovativo sfrutta la deviazione dei protoni provenienti dall’alone del fascio principale su un bersaglio solido, in combinazione con un cristallo curvo. Questa configurazione consente di produrre barioni con charm fortemente collimati in avanti, che vengono poi canalizzati attraverso il cristallo stesso. L’elemento chiave dell’esperimento è lo studio della precessione di spin indotta dall’effetto di canalizzazione nel cristallo curvo. Analizzando la polarizzazione dei barioni con charm in decadimento, ALADDIN punta a misurare con grande precisione sia il momento di dipolo magnetico che quello elettrico, fornendo dati cruciali per la comprensione delle interazioni fondamentali. L’apparato sperimentale prevede uno spettrometro lungo 4,4 m e un rivelatore RICH per l’identificazione delle particelle. L’installazione è pianificata nella regione IR3 di LHC durante il Long Shutdown 3, senza la necessità di interventi infrastrutturali e con un impatto minimo sul funzionamento dell’LHC. La presa dati è prevista per il Run 4. Attualmente, il test di prova di principio TWOCRYST è in corso al LHC per dimostrare la fattibilità del concetto, con risultati attesi per il 2025. La Lettera di Intenti dell’esperimento è stata presentata al LHCC (https://cds.cern.ch/record/2905467), che ha approvato il proseguimento della collaborazione verso una proposta tecnica nel 2025.

25 Invisible jets from composite neutrinos

The origin of Majorana neutrino masses suggests the existence of a sterile neutrino sector, which may be either too heavy or too weakly coupled to the Standard Model (SM) to be detected in the near future. The inverse seesaw mechanism provides a testable framework where the coupling between the sterile sector and the SM is large enough to allow direct experimental probes. In this context, it is crucial to explore whether the sterile sector is a weakly or strongly coupled theory and to identify methods to distinguish between these possibilities.

We propose a novel experimental probe for neutrino coupling with a strongly coupled sterile sector, based on the distinctive signature of neutrino disintegration into ''dark jets'' in high-energy neutrino scattering with electrons and nucleons. We investigate scenarios where the disintegration rate is dominated by events in which the dark jet invariant mass is well above the confinement scale, and we compute production rates within the conformal window. In this regime, we derive a new bound from NuTeV neutral current measurements and assess the expected sensitivity of upcoming experiments, such as DUNE and SHiP. We compare these bounds with the more standard searches of sterile state in meson and EW gauge boson decays (see Figure attached).

The unique signals discussed here offer a new experimental signature for future neutrino experiments, presenting both challenges in optimizing signal-to-background discrimination and a promising avenue for identifying composite neutrino interactions.

26 Amplitude analysis of $B^0 \rightarrow \eta_c(1S) K^+ \pi^-$ decay

Over the past two decades, several heavy-flavor hadrons have been observed, with their properties inconsistent with predictions from conventional $q\bar{q}$ or $qqq$ models. These findings offer insights into quark binding and QCD. It is then important to continue the search for new states, as each discovery improves our knowledge and provides important input to the theory.
This talk presents an amplitude analysis of the $B^0 \rightarrow \eta_c(1S) K^+ \pi^-$ decay, based on a dataset corresponding to approximately 9 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data. The analysis search for the presence of an exotic resonance in the $\eta_c \pi^-$ system.
The Dalitz plot is described using only established $K^{\ast}$ resonances as intermediate states, as no significant evidence is found for an exotic $\eta_c \pi^-$ resonance, contrary to an earlier claim based on previous data.
The inclusive branching fraction of the decay is measured together with the branching fracions of the $B^0 \to \eta_c K^*$ decays.

27 The charming case of X(3872) and 𝜒𝑐₁(2𝑃)

More than twenty years have elapsed since the discovery of $\chi_{c1}(3872)$ previously denoted as $X(3872)$, and an impressive amount of theoretical and experimental studies has been devoted to its properties, decays and production mechanisms.
Despite the extensive work, a full understanding of the nature of $\chi_{c1}(3872)$ is still missing.
In the present study I reconsider a theoretical framework based on the heavy quark large mass limit to analyze the radiative decays of heavy quarkonia, in particular the electric dipole transitions of $\chi_{c1}(2P)$ to $S$-wave charmonia.
The results favorably compare to recent measurements for $\chi_{c1}(3872)$, obtained by the LHCb Collaboration, if this meson is identified with $\chi_{c1}(2P)$.

28 Recent results in charm physics at LHCb

The LHCb experiment was designed to play a decisive role in the study of particle and flavor physics. From the very beginning, LHCb has performed measurements of CP violation in the decays of hadrons containing the charm quark with extremely high precision, and in 2019 it observed direct CP violation in the two-body charged decays of the $D^0$ meson for the first time, using data collected during Run 2.

During the LHC Long Shutdown 2, the LHCb experiment underwent a major upgrade, completely replacing several sub-detectors and implementing a fully software-based trigger. Thanks to these modifications, in 2024 the experiment was able to collect an integrated luminosity comparable to that gathered during Runs 1 and 2, enabling new levels of statistical precision

This contribution will present recent results from the LHCb experiment, including the first result with Run 3 data, on CP violation in the charm sector and on production asymmetries of charm hadrons.

29 Correlating lepton flavour violating b->s and leptonic decay modes in a minimal abelian extension of the Standard Model

An abelian extension of the Standard Model (SM) based on the introduction of a new abelian gauge group $U(1)^\prime$ is considered, with the corresponding neutral gauge boson $Z^\prime$ having flavour violating couplings to quarks and leptons. The fermion content is the same as in the SM, except for the addition of three right-handed neutrinos. The model, proposed by Aebischer, Buras, Cerdà-Sevilla and De Fazio, describes the couplings of $Z^\prime$ to fermions in terms of three rational parameters $\epsilon_{1,2,3}$ that sum to zero when imposing the cancellation of gauge anomalies. Each $\epsilon_i$ is common to all fermions of a given generation, a feature producing correlations among quark and lepton observables.
Within this framework, I investigated $b \to s \ell_1^- \ell_2^+$ transitions, both in the lepton flavour conserving case ($\ell_1=\ell_2$) and in the lepton flavour violating case ($\ell_1 \neq \ell_2$). In the former, small deviations from SM predictions were found, reflecting a feature of the model in which quark and lepton sectors prevent each other to manifest large discrepancies with respect to SM.
Additionally, I studied the correlations between rare $B$ and $B_s$ decays and the leptonic processes $\tau^- \to \mu^- \mu^+ \mu^-$, $\mu^- \to e^- \gamma$, $\mu^- \to e^- e^+ e^-$ and $ \mu^- \to e^-$ conversion in nuclei. The conducted analysis shows that the current experimental upper bounds on these channels play an increasingly important role in constraining the branching ratios of lepton flavor violating $B$ and $B_s$ decays. In particular, the bound on $\tau^- \to \mu^- \mu^+ \mu^-$ does not impose any significant restriction, whereas the other three channels set progressively more stringent limits.

Speaker: Davide Milillo

30 Search for the lepton-flavour violating decay $\tau^+ \to \phi \mu^+$ at the LHCb experiment

Lepton-flavour conservation is an almost perfect symmetry in the Standard Model of particle physics, violated so far only by neutrino oscillations. Neutrino mixing implies that lepton-flavour violation occurs in charged decays as well, albeit with extremely low branching fractions ($\mathcal{B}$) of order $\mathcal{O}(10^{-50})$. Therefore, any direct observation would be a clear and unambiguous sign of new physics beyond the Standard Model. The search for the $\tau^+\to\phi(K^+K^-)\mu^+$ decay provides a sensitive probe for several new physics scenarios, including vector leptoquark models which predict branching fractions up to $10^{-8}$, close to current experimental sensitivities. This contribution presents the first-ever attempt to search for $\tau^+\to\phi(K^+K^-)\mu^+$ in hadronic collisions. The measurement is currently performed with the data collected by the LHCb experiment at CERN during Run 2 (6$\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$, 2015-2018). Based on the Run 2 experience and thanks to the Data Acquisition and Trigger systems of the brand-new LHCb-Upgrade I detector, LHCb is now collecting an enriched sample of $\tau^+\to\phi(K^+K^-)\mu^+$ decay candidates by means of the first dedicated exclusive trigger line implemented at the earliest stage of the High Level Trigger. The new trigger increases the signal selection efficiency by a factor of about 6 compared to Run 2, with LHCb expected to collect $\sim23\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ by the end of Run 3 in 2026. The analysis strategy developed for the Run 2 dataset is presented, along with the design and performance of the new exclusive trigger selection in Run 3. Finally, the expected sensitivity on the upper limit with Run 2 and Run 3 datasets is also discussed.
