Bubble chambers using fluorocarbons or noble liquids gases are promising tools for detecting low-energy nuclear recoils caused by the elastic scattering of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), a type of dark matter. These chambers comprise a vessel filled with a superheated liquid, which...

We present a Boosted Decision Tree (BDT) based algorithm, with promising potential, that can be used at the level-2 stage of the ATLAS Hadronic Tau Trigger for the selection of a single hadronically decaying tau lepton. The results indicate that our algorithm outperforms the current algorithm on...

Bhabha Scattering is the scattering of an electron off of a positron; it is everywhere in particle physics and plays a special role in particle phenomenology. Its particular use as a luminosity measure in particle colliders gives great motivation to reduce the theoretical uncertainty in the cross...
