  1. 72. Towards Four-Dimensional Particle Detection: Spatial and Temporal Precision with Gas Detectors and Emerging MPGD Technologies
    Gianfranco Morello, Marco Poli Lener (INFN _laboratori Nazionali di Frascati)
    20/10/2026, 09:40
    Precision measurements in fundamental physics
    Oral

    The continuous evolution of high-energy physics experiments is driving detector technologies towards increasingly stringent requirements on the precision of both spatial and temporal measurements. The simultaneous determination of a particle trajectory and its time coordinate is becoming a key element for precision tracking, event reconstruction, fast triggering, particle identification, and...

  2. 41. High-Precision Laser Ranging: From Lunar Reflectors to the GUEST Mission

    Precision measurements in fundamental physics
    Oral

    Since 1969, the Apollo and Lunokhod missions have deployed Laser Retroreflector Arrays (LRAs), consisting of Cube Corner Retroreflectors (CCRs), on the lunar surface. These devices reflect incident laser light back toward their source, enabling high-precision distance measurements through the technique of Lunar Laser Ranging (LLR). In LLR experiments, short laser pulses are transmitted from...

  3. 46. Advanced diagnostic techniques for a 4 ppm measurement of the antihydrogen Ground-State Hyperfine Splitting in the ALPHA experiment at CERN
    Germano Bonomi (University of Brescia and INFN Pavia)

    Precision measurements in fundamental physics
    Oral

    The ALPHA Collaboration recently determined the antihydrogen ground-state hyperfine splitting to a relative precision of 4 ppm, an improvement of two orders of magnitude.
    Achieving this leap required advanced in situ diagnostic and magnetic field characterization methodologies to mitigate the extreme sensitivities of driving resonant microwave transitions within a deep magnetic minimum trap....

  4. 42. From Conventional to Cutting-Edge: A Journey Through Free-Electron Lasers and the Plasma Frontier
    Alessio Del Dotto (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)

    Precision measurements in fundamental physics
    Oral

    Free-electron lasers (FELs) probe matter at the sub-atomic scale through coherent pulses with sub-ångström wavelengths and sub-femtosecond durations, but the high-energy beams driving them have traditionally required large radio-frequency accelerators with a sizeable footprint. Plasma-based acceleration, with gradients up to three orders of magnitude higher, opens the way to far more compact...

  5. 51. Diagnostic technologies in high-sensitivity experiments to detect ultra-rare events
    Giovanni Mazzitelli (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)
    20/10/2026, 11:30
    Precision measurements in fundamental physics
    Oral

    Ultra-rare event searches in astroparticle physics require detectors capable of combining extreme sensitivity with long-term stability, background control, and precise calibration.

    This presentation will focus on international experiments, including direct dark-matter searches, neutrinoless double-beta decay studies, neutrino telescopes, cosmic-ray and gamma-ray observatories, and...
