The ongoing goal of relativistic heavy-ion collision experiments is to constrain the properties of nuclear media under extreme densities. Mounting evidence gathered from these experiments suggests that a strongly interacting plasma of quarks and gluons – the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) – is created within these collisions. The QGP is well described using multi-stage simulations, where...
In order to search for the physics beyond the Standard Model at the precision frontier, it is sometimes essential to account for Next-to-Next- Leading Order (NNLO) theoretical corrections. Using the covariant approach, we calculated the full electroweak leptonic tensor up to quadratic (one loop squared) NNLO (α3) order, which can be used for the processes like e^− p and μ^− p scattering...
The MOLLER (Measurement of a Lepton-Lepton Electroweak Reaction) experiment aims to measure the weak mixing angle with unprecedented precession at low momentum transfer. The measurement will be carried out with Jefferson Laboratory's state-of-the-art Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) to measure the parity violating scattering asymmetry of 11 GeV highly-polarized electrons...
Parity Violating Electron Scattering (PVES) experiments are a powerful tool for exploring physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. These experiments, which conduct highly accurate measurements of the parity-violating asymmetry across various kinematic conditions and targets, significantly contribute to advancements in particle, nuclear, and hadronic physics. Achieving precise...
The High Voltage Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (HVMAPS) will be used as electron detectors in The Measurement of a Lepton-Lepton Electroweak Reaction (MOLLER) experiment. The HVMAPS will map the response across the face of the quartz integrating detectors. Using two commercial GEM detectors, a position calibration system for the MOLLER's HVMAP was commisionned. The pair of of GEMs are...
