6 -The unobserved transition b → sττ is a promising probe to perform Lepton Flavour Universality tests and search for possible New Physics effects. In this project, the selected student will investigate signal and background characteristics in the decay Λb⁰ → pKτ⁺τ⁻ and develop strategies to maximize background rejection while preserving signal efficiency. The work will involve the use of modern machine-learning techniques, including BDTs, Neural Networks, and hyperparameter optimization tools such as Optuna, applied to realistic LHCb datasets.
6 +A miniTrasgo detector with very high angular resolution has recently been installed at IGFAE for cosmic ray measurement.
7 +We propose to participate in the study of the performances of the detector and analyzing the relationship between variations in the angular distribution of cosmic rays and the atmospheric temperature profile above the detector.
