Next-to-leading-order QCD analyses of the ZEUS data on deep inelastic scattering together with fixed-target have been performed, from which gluon and quark densities proton value strong coupling constant αs(MZ) were extracted. The study includes a full treatment experimental systematic uncertainties including point-to-point correlations. resulting in parton density functions are presented. A combined fit for yields agreement world average. derived alone indicate importance HERA determining...
Inclusive production of D*± (2010) mesons in deep inelastic scattering has been measured with the ZEUS detector at DESY HERA using an integrated luminosity 81.9 pb−1. The decay channel D*+→D0π+ D0→K−π+ and corresponding antiparticle were used to identify D* mesons.

Machine Learning algorithms have played an important role in hadronic jet classification problems. The large variety of models applied to Large Hadron Collider data has demonstrated that there is still room for improvement. In this context Quantum a new and almost unexplored methodology, where the intrinsic properties quantum computation could be used exploit particles correlations improving performance. paper, we present brand approach identify if contains hadron formed by $b$ or $\bar{b}$...
Fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) to align with user preferences is challenging due the high cost of quality human annotations in Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) and generalizability limitations AI Feedback. To address these challenges, we propose RLTHF, a human-AI hybrid framework that combines LLM-based initial alignment selective achieve full-human annotation minimal effort. RLTHF identifies hard-to-annotate samples mislabeled by LLMs using reward model's...

Scikit-HEP is a community-driven and community-oriented project with the goal of providing an ecosystem for particle physics data analysis in Python. toolset approximately twenty packages few “affiliated” packages. It expands typical Python tools physicists. Each package focuses on particular topic, interacts other toolset, where appropriate. Most are easy to install many environments; much work has been done this year provide binary “wheels” PyPI conda-forge The gaining interest momentum,...
Some of the biggest achievements modern era particle physics, such as discovery Higgs boson, have been made possible by tremendous effort in building and operating large-scale experiments like Large Hadron Collider or Tevatron. In these facilities, ultimate theory to describe matter at most fundamental level is constantly probed verified. These often produce large amounts data that require storing, processing, analysis techniques push limits traditional information processing schemes. Thus,...
