Centre for Experimental Physics and Quantum Technology

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a next-generation long-baseline neutrino experiment designed to determine the remaining unknown parameters of the standard three-flavor neutrino oscillation framework, including the octant of θ23, the neutrino mass hierarchy, and the CP-violating phase. In addition to its primary oscillation program, DUNE will provide a powerful platform to probe several physics beyond the Standard Model. In this talk, I will explore the sensitivity of DUNE to...

Centre for Theoretical Physics and Astronomy

Many dark matter experiments are exploiting the Migdal effect, a rare atomic process, to improve sensitivity to low-mass WIMP-like dark matter candidates. Following the recent first observation of the Migdal effect in nuclear scattering [1] the characterisation of the effect and measurements of the cross-section in a range of elements is of great importance to the DM community. The MIGDAL experiment aims to characterise the Migdal Effect in a range of species and test theoretical predictions of...

Centre for Theoretical Physics and Astronomy

Since the first experimental detection of gravitational waves in 2015, observations in this field have profoundly transformed our understanding of the Universe, leading to discoveries that were once only anticipated and are now being realised. In this presentation, I will offer a personal (and admittedly biased) overview of gravitational wave science, emphasising how this field naturally operates at the interface of multiple disciplines, ranging from astrophysics and cosmology to particle...
