Brad Andrew Brown
/ Brown, Brad Andrew (speaker) (University of Texas at Arlington)
Hello! My name is Brad Brown and I’m a senior undergraduate physics student at the University of Texas at Arlington. This summer, I worked with the LHCb Simulation team on restoring and modernizing the Machine-Induced Background (MIB) generator — a simulation tool originally developed during Run 1 of the LHC but unused since.

Measurement of the natC(n,p) and natC(n,d) reactions from n_TOF at CERN
/ n_TOF Collaboration
The energy dependence of the cross section of the (n,p) and (n,d) reactions on $^\text{nat}$C has been studied for the first time at the n_TOF facility at CERN, from the particle detection threshold up to 25 MeV. The measurement was performed with two telescopes made of position-sensitive silicon $ΔE$-$E$ detectors, covering the angular range from 20° to 140°. [...]

Large charge meets semiclassics in $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills
/ Brown, Augustus (Queen Mary, U. of London) ; Galvagno, Francesco (Queen Mary, U. of London) ; Grassi, Alba (U. Geneva (main)) ; Iossa, Cristoforo (U. Geneva (main)) ; Wen, Congkao (Queen Mary, U. of London)
We study the large-charge sector of $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory (SYM) with $SU(N)$ gauge group by constructing a special class of half-BPS heavy operators, termed "canonical operators". Such operators exhibit remarkable simplicity in the large-charge 't Hooft limit, where the dimension of the operators $\Delta \to \infty$ with $\Delta\, g_{\text{YM}}^2$ held finite. [...]

Gaia Data Release 3 - Stellar multiplicity, a teaser for the hidden treasure
/ Gaia Collaboration
Context.TheGaiaDR3 catalogue contains, for the first time, about 800 000 solutions with either orbital elements or trend parameters for astrometric, spectroscopic, and eclipsing binaries, and combinations of these three.Aims.With this paper, we aim to illustrate the huge potential of this large non-single-star catalogue.Methods.Using the orbital solutions and models of the binaries, we have built a catalogue of tens of thousands of stellar masses or lower limits thereof, some with consistent flux ratios. Properties concerning the completeness of the binary catalogues are discussed, statistical features of the orbital elements are explained, and a comparison with other catalogues is performed.Results.Illustrative applications are proposed for binaries across the Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram (HRD).

Results of the $^{244}$Cm, $^{246}$Cm and $^{248}$Cm neutron-induced capture cross sections measurements at EAR1 and EAR2 of the n_TOF facility
/ nTOF Collaboration
Accurate neutron capture cross section data for minor actinides (MAs) are required to estimate the production and transmutation rates of MAs in light water reactors, critical fast reactors like Gen-IV systems, and other innovative reactor systems such as accelerator driven systems (ADS). In particular, 244Cm, 246Cm and 248Cm play a role in the transport, storage and transmutation of the nuclear waste of the current nuclear reactors, due to the contribution of these isotopes to the radiotoxicity, neutron emission, and decay heat in the spent nuclear fuel.

Detector set up for the measurements of the neutron-induced fission cross section of $^{235}$U relative to n-p scattering up to 150 MeV at CERN-n_TOF
/ Pirovano, E (Braunschweig, Phys. Tech. Bund.) ; Manna, A (INFN, Bologna ; U. Bologna, DIFA) ; Colonna, N (INFN, Bari) ; Console Camprini, P (INFN, Bologna ; ENEA, Bologna) ; Cosentino, L (INFN, LNS) ; Dietz, M (Braunschweig, Phys. Tech. Bund.) ; Ducasse, Q (Braunschweig, Phys. Tech. Bund.) ; Finocchiaro, P (INFN, LNS) ; Massimi, C (INFN, Bologna ; U. Bologna, DIFA) ; Mengoni, A (INFN, Bologna ; ENEA, Bologna) et al.
A new measurement of the $^{235}$U(n,f) fission cross section was carried out at n_TOF. The experiment covered the neutron energy range from 10 MeV up to 500 MeV, and it used the 1H(n,n) cross section as normalization for the neutron fluence measurement. [...]
