Impact of beam-beam effects on absolute luminosity calibrations at the CERN Large Hadron Collider

Tatiana Pieloni, Claudia Tambasco

At the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), absolute luminosity calibrations obtained by the van der Meer (vdM) method are affected by the mutual electromagnetic interaction of the two beams. The colliding bunches experience relative orbit shifts, as well as optic ...

New insight on the nature of cosmic reionizers from the CEERS survey

Michaela Hirschmann

The Epoch of Reionization (EoR) began when galaxies grew in abundance and luminosity, so their escaping Lyman continuum (LyC) radiation started ionizing the surrounding neutral intergalactic medium (IGM). Despite significant recent progress, the nature and ...
