Hep-Ex explores the fascinating intersection where particle physics meets experimental reality. This field investigates how scientists build massive detectors and accelerate particles to test the fundamental laws of nature, turning abstract theories into measurable data. It is the rigorous process of searching for new particles or forces that could reshape our understanding of the universe, often requiring years of collaboration and engineering.
At Gist.Science, we ensure these discoveries become accessible to everyone. We process every new preprint in this category directly from arXiv, generating both plain-language explanations for curious readers and detailed technical summaries for specialists. Our goal is to bridge the gap between complex experimental results and public understanding without losing scientific nuance.
Below are the latest papers in Hep-Ex, freshly summarized and ready for you to explore.
Using the ATLAS detector, this study presents a high-precision measurement of prompt charged-particle production in proton-oxygen collisions at TeV, providing data that significantly improves the modeling of cosmic-ray air showers for astroparticle physics.
This paper presents the most precise single measurement of the CKM angle to date, determining it to be by applying a novel, model-independent approach that simultaneously analyzes joint datasets from the BESIII and LHCb experiments.
This paper presents the most precise measurement of the CKM angle to date, yielding a value of by performing a joint, model-independent analysis of quantum-correlated meson data from BESIII and decay data from LHCb.
Using 685 days of data collected between May 2022 and July 2025, the SNO+ experiment achieved a precise measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameter consistent with other long-baseline experiments and reported the first geoneutrino flux measurement in the Western Hemisphere.
The CMS experiment at the LHC reports the first observation of nuclear suppression in coherent (1S) photoproduction off heavy nuclei, measuring a nuclear gluon suppression factor of at a high energy scale of GeV and .
This paper presents a fast, data-driven parametric simulation tool for pixel sensors that bypasses the need for proprietary manufacturing details by using measurement inputs, demonstrating its efficiency and validation on the MALTA2 sensor to guide performance optimizations for the upcoming MALTA3 redesign.
This paper presents the development and validation of pre-supernova neutrino event generation capabilities within the sntools package, aiming to enable early warning detection and unified analysis of pre-collapse stellar neutrinos for current and next-generation detectors like Hyper-Kamiokande.
This paper presents a search for a Higgs boson decaying into soft unclustered energy patterns (SUEP) produced in association with a W or Z boson using 138 fb of 13 TeV proton-proton collision data, finding no significant excess over the Standard Model background and setting limits on the production cross section.
The XENONnT experiment reports a 3.3 measurement of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering from solar B neutrinos, which establishes a "neutrino fog" background that limits light dark matter detection sensitivity while also enabling constraints on the weak mixing angle and physics beyond the Standard Model.
This paper presents a reactor-based search for axion-like particles using a low-background CsI(Tl) detector, demonstrating the potential to probe previously unexplored parameter spaces for ALP masses between 1 keV and 10 MeV, including the cosmological triangle.
