The Jagiellonian Positron Emission Tomograph (J-PET) is a detector for tests of discrete symmetries as well as for medical imaging. The novelty of the system is based on usage of plastic scintillators for active detection material and trigger-less data acquisition system. The apparatus consists of 192 plastic scintillators read out from both ends with vacuum tube photomultipliers. Positronium...

Search for violation of the symmetry under combined transformation of charge, parity and time reversal in charged leptonic sector can be tested through the non-vanishing expectation value of certain angular correlation operators that are odd under CPT transformation. In this talk we will discuss the experimental approach for a CPT symmetry test by measuring angular correlations between the...

The comparison of neutral K-meson transition rates between flavour and CP eigenstates is used to perform independent tests of time-reversal T, CP and CPT symmetries. The analysis of 1.7 fb$^{-1}$ of KLOE data acquired at the DA$\Phi$NE $e^+e^-$ collider, using ratios of rates of the two classes of processes, $K_S K_L \to \pi^\pm e^\mp \nu, 3 \pi^0$ and $K_S K_L \to \pi^+ \pi^-, \pi^\pm e^\mp...

The process $\phi \to K_S K_L \to\pi^+ \pi^- \pi^+ \pi^-$ exhibits the characteristic Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen correlation that prevents both kaons to decay into pairs of charged pions at the same time. This constitutes a formidable tool to test with high precision the quantum coherence of the entangled kaon state, and to search for tiny deviations from the quantum mechanical prediction that...

P2 is a precision experiment planned for the Mainz Energy recovering Superconducting Accelerator (MESA) currently under construction. The goal of P2 is to determine the electroweak mixing angle at a four-momentum transfer of Q^2 = 4.5e-3 GeV^2 with a precision of 0.14 %, comparable to existing measurements at the Z pole. The mixing angle is extracted by measuring the protons weak charge...

The MUonE experiment aims to measure with extremely high precision the leading-order hadronic contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment g-2. This currently represents the largest uncertainty in the theoretical prediction. A first test has been performed in 2021, with prototypes of the silicon sensors and related electronics, the fundamental components of the detector. The collected...

The longstanding $(g-2)_\mu$ anomaly is one of the greatest puzzles in particle physics. If confirmed, it would be a clear indication for physics beyond the Standard Model. We discuss the implications of this anomaly on the flavor structure of its possible New Physics (NP) explanations. In particular, we investigate flavor alignment conditions that NP models need to satisfy in order to both...

The NA62 experiment at CERN collected the world's largest dataset of charged kaon decays in 2016-2018, leading to the first measurement of the branching ratio of the ultra-rare K+ --> pi+ nu nu decay, based on 20 candidates.

The radiative kaon decay K+ → pi0e+vg (Ke3g) was studied with a data sample of O(100k) Ke3g candidates with sub-percent background contaminations recorded in 2017-2018.... -

The NA62 experiment at CERN took data in 2016–2018 with the main goal of measuring the K+ -> pi+ nu nubar decay. The high-intensity setup and detector performance make NA62 particularly suited for searching new-physics effects from different scenarios involving feebly interacting particles in the MeV—GeV mass range.

Pietro Bisio (INFN-Genova)11/9/22, 4:45 PMAllTalk
One of the most compelling arguments motivating the search for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) is the need to explain the nature of Dark Matter (DM). Despite an extensive experimental program that combined direct, indirect, and detection at colliders, to date, no conclusive results about DM particle nature have been determined. Among the DM theories, DM particles in the mass range 1 MeV...
