    I will first review the basic characteristics of neutrinos as the only weakly-only interacting particles in the Standard Model, and the experimental results that show how neutrinos are indeed massive (thus introducing the need for some addition to the Standard Model itself to get their mass). I will then explain how we can use neutrinos to test the matter content of the Earth, either by...

    Session

    I will review the basics of gravitational wave astronomy, the detection of gravitational wave sources and how their parameters are inferred. The success of gravitational wave astronomy depends on very precise measurements and on quenching various noises. I will describe the noises and sketch the methods to mitigate them. The seismic noise is affecting modern interferometers at low frequencies....

    9/9/26, 9:00 AM

    This lecture provides an introduction to the fundamentals of seismic
    exploration. Although seismics is definitely not the same as
    seismology, the physical and geological principles are the same in
    both fields; the only fundamental difference lies in the process by
    which mechanical waves are generated. During the lecture, we will
    briefly review the structure of the Earth, the different...

    Geoneutrinos are tiny particles produced by the radioactive decay chains of elements such as uranium and thorium inside the Earth. Although they interact only very weakly with matter, modern particle detectors can measure them, opening a unique window into the deep interior of our planet, most of which cannot be sampled directly. Their study connects particle physics and geoscience and can...

    The lecture covers the path from noisy data to scientifically defensible AI results, including signal-to-noise assessment, preprocessing, data leakage, validation, uncertainty, and reproducibility. It also presents explainable AI as a tool for auditing model behaviour while distinguishing model explanations from causal and scientific conclusions.

    This thesis consists of two parts: theoretical and research. The theoretical part briefly presents the history and classification of gamma rays, describes the mechanisms of their origin and the instruments used for their detection, with emphasis on the Fermi-LAT satellite. Special attention is given to active galactic nuclei and their subclass blazars, with a detailed focus on the blazar BL...

    Seismic observations provide information about the Earth's internal structure and its response to transient disturbances. Conventional seismometers provide measurements at discrete locations while coherent laser interferometry applied to deployed telecommunication fibers offers a way to extend seismic observations into sparsely instrumented regions, including the submarine environment.

    We...

    The weak equivalence principle is a basic assumption of physics. It has been tested multiple times throughout history, with the greatest improvement in accuracy being Loránd Eötvös’ measurements with a torsion balance at the beginning of the twentieth century. Decades later, however, a systematic error was found in his measurements, still unexplained today. In order to find an explanation, new...

    Seismic and geophysical observations are becoming increasingly important in interdisciplinary research connecting Earth sciences, engineering, and fundamental physics. From a civil and structural engineering perspective, buildings and infrastructure can also provide useful information through their response to ground motion. This contribution presents a conceptual framework for linking...

    Gravitational-wave (GW) detection has become a significant area of research following the first successful observation by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO). The detection of signals emerging from binary black hole (BBH) mergers have challenges due to the presence of non-Gaussian and non-stationary noise in observational data. Using traditional matched filtering...

    Gravitational-wave detectors are affected by short-duration non-Gaussian noise transients, known as glitches, which can resemble astrophysical gravitational-wave signals and reduce the quality of detector data. Reliable classification of these glitches is therefore important for gravitational-wave data analysis. In this work, we investigate a computationally efficient approach to glitch...

    Previous studies [1] reported statistically significant correlations between variations in secondary cosmic-ray detection rates and global seismic activity, with the strongest correlations observed when seismic data are shifted by approximately two weeks relative to cosmic-ray data. The main characteristics of this cosmo-seismic effect will be presented and discussed.

    Modern experiments in fundamental physics increasingly rely on large-scale simulations and machine-learning techniques to extract rare signals from complex datasets. While these approaches have become indispensable, the computational cost of producing sufficiently large Monte Carlo datasets is rapidly becoming one of the major challenges for future precision measurements.

    In this work, we consider non-Hermitian Hamiltonians exhibiting $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry, which possess real energy spectra despite their complex potentials. We study in detail the generalized Kronig-Penney model with a complex periodic potential of the Dirac delta form to explore its electronic properties. By analyzing special cases, we demonstrate the effect of the complex form of the...

    The Cosmic-Ray Extremely Distributed Observatory (CREDO) uses a geographically distributed network of smartphones to detect secondary cosmic radiation. A major challenge in such a citizen-science experiment is the heterogeneous quality of data and the large number of artefacts caused by light leakage, damaged pixels and improper detector operation. This poster presents a data-processing...

    The neural network framework allows us to obtain empirical fits to electron scattering cross sections on carbon over a wide kinematic region. Transfer learning makes it possible to adapt a deep neural network trained on one type of data to new problems. We apply transfer learning to derive a new model from a previously obtained set of neural networks trained on electron-carbon cross-section...

    In this poster, we present recent results on the application of the minisuperspace (MSS) formalism to General Relativity in the static, spherically symmetric sector. We investigate the correspondence between the MSS approach and the standard formulation of Einstein's field equations, demonstrating that the formalism reproduces a known non-trivial spacetime solution while providing a consistent...

    This study investigates the presence of deterministic chaos in human cardiac dynamics by analyzing electrocardiographic (ECG) time series through the framework of nonlinear dynamics. Although the heartbeat exhibits a macroscopic rhythm, secondary fluctuations display complex, irregular patterns characteristic of non-linear systems. The scalar time series was analyzed using spectral...

    In the Kaluza–Klein model, where one extra compactified spatial dimension is added to usual spacetime, one can consider hadronic states emerging from extra dimensional excitations. These can be associated with e.g., strangeness or higher mass states appearing in the nuclear equation of state, with a non-trivial modification to the speed of sound, especially in the...

    Radon concentrations in enclosed subterranean environments exhibit strong temporal variability driven by environmental conditions, making reliable short-term forecasting challenging. Elevated radon levels and the decay products of $^{222}$Rn are particularly relevant in underground laboratories, caves, and mines, where they pose health risks and can contribute significantly to the radiation...

    By investigating Newtonian gravity within the framework of nonequilibrium thermodynamics it is possible to use specific energy density with up to 3rd order gradient dependency.

    We propose a novel method for testing gravity models using seismic data from Earth. By imposing observational constraints on Earth's moment of inertia and mass, we rigorously limit the gravitational models' parameters within a 2σ accuracy. In our research, we focus on the Palatini f(R) gravity in the Palatini approach, the Eddington-inspired Born Infeld gravity, and Degenerate Higher-Order...
