Forcing neutrinos to obey the holographic principle Gravity does not like the vast amounts of states present in QFT, and quantum gravitational effects are expected to drastically reduce the dimension of the QFT Hilbert space. This is e.g. achieved by "operator dressing", which changes the commutation relations of quantum fields....

Exploring the Universe at the Highest Energies: when Particle Physics and Astronomy meet High-energy neutrinos propagating over cosmological distances are the ideal messenger particles for astrophysical phenomena, but the neutrino landscape above 10 PeV is still mostly unexplored. At these extreme energies, neutrinos can image the most extreme objects in...

Particle tracking and identification with Timepix-series detector setups in nuclear, particle and astrophysics In high energy physics experiments, hybrid pixel detectors are an integral part of the tracking systems closest to the interaction points, where their good spatial resolution and high radiation resilience allow for particle tracking by connection of...
