New paper on arXiv! https://t.co/KfpzV1CxvU Proud of this: we extend a Les Houches 2019 project and design a new graph alg for identifying the best-expected allowed combination of BSM signal regions to use in a recast. Moar power, excellent complexity scaling, public code 👍
Congratulations to our latest @UofGPhysAstro@LHCbExperiment doctor-in-waiting, @DanaLikesQuarks (and supervisors Lars Eklund and Paul Soler), after an epic viva exam and a mighty tome of a thesis. Thanks to examiners @MamaPhysikerin & @agbuckley
@UofGVC indeed it's very exciting, and @UofGParticlePhy@UofGPhysAstro has been part of the CDF experiment for more than 20 years. Checking this aspect of the standard model's internal consistency has only been possible after the Higgs boson discovery!
A team of 400 Collider Detector @Fermilab (CDF) scientists, including many from the UK, have made the most precise measurement of an elementary particle.
And it does not match predictions under the guiding theory of physics. 👀

This measurement is quite breathtaking: 20 years of work from first data to final result. 20 years of really careful, painstaking, difficult work to get the most precise measurement ever of the W boson mass.
congratulations Dr Morag Williams, who just passed her PhD viva!!! 🍾 You can hear her talking about her work with @UofGPhysAstro, @CERN, and @CLIC_study, here! ⬇️

congratulations Dr Spiteri who passed his PhD viva today with a thesis on Higgs measurements at the @ATLASexperiment! As it was all remote, here's a picture from last year of him in a live link with other @UofGParticlePhy students at #CERN for @IoPScotland's Festival of Physics!

NEW! Some lovely videos of our group members talking about work, study & life as an experimental particle physicist in Glasgow & CERN: https://t.co/fc7c0KobDA @UofGPhysAstro@UofGSciEng
We've got two of these student placements remaining at @UofGParticlePhy, which can now operate remotely if needed. Contact me if interested in Rivet or Contur studies, or PDF machinery
+NEW+ A new, fully funded 4-year PhD project on the boundary of collider experiment, theory, and data-science to start this autumn: https://t.co/kn3m0Vubyk @agbuckley@ScotDIST_CDT@UofGPhysAstro
