This work mainly introduces the recent experimental process on probing the effect of Lorentz violation (LV) at d = 6, which is a specially striped-type structure experiment to increase the signal of LV. Besides, we also proposed a new experimental design using the striped geometry with triplex modulation to independently constrain the 14 LV coefficients with a higher sensitivity.
This contribution to the CPT16 meeting briefly highlights some of the recent progress in the phenomenology of Lorentz and CPT violation, with emphasis on research performed at the Indiana University Center for Spacetime Symmetries.
CUORE is a 741 kg array of 988 TeO$_2$ bolometeric crystals designed to search for the neutrinoless double beta decay of $^{130}$Te and other rare processes. CUORE has been taking data since summer 2017, and as of summer 2018 collected a total of 86.3 kg$cdot$yr of TeO$_2$ exposure. Based on this exposure, we were able to set a limit on the $0 ubetabeta$ half-life of $^{130}$Te of $T^{0 u}_{1/2}>1.5times10^{25}$ yr at 90% C.L. At this conference, we showed the decomposition of the CUORE background and were able to extract a $^{130}$Te $2 ubetabeta$ half-life of $T_{1/2}^{2 u}=[7.9pm0.1 mathrm{(stat.)}pm0.2 mathrm{(syst.)}]times10^{20}$ yr. This is the most precise measurement of this half-life and is consistent with previous measurements.
In 2009, the BESIII experiment has collected about 225M $jpsi$ and 106M $psip$ samples, both of which are the world largest on-peak charmonium production. Based on these dataset, BESIII has made great effort on the study of the charmonium decays, some important of which have been reviewed in this proceeding. In addition, a searching for new physics through the $CP/P$ violation process is reported.
We present a summary of recent studies on $CP$ violation with the Belle experiment using the final data sample of $772 times 10^{6}$ Bbar{B} pairs produced at the Ypsilon(4S) resonance at the KEK asymmetric e^+ e^- collider. We discuss preliminary measurements of the branching fraction, the polarization and the $CP$ asymmetries of the decay $B^0 rightarrow rho^{+} rho^{-}$ and an updated constraint on the CKM angle $phi_2$ from the $Btorhorho$ system. Being also related to $phi_2$, we present a preliminary measurement of the branching fraction of $B^0rightarrow pi^0pi^0$ decays. Last, a preliminary model independent dalitz plot analysis of the decay $B^0 rightarrow D^0[K_S^0pi^+pi^-]K^{*0}$ is presented and its sensitivity to the CKM angle $phi_3$ is discussed.
Recent progress and the latest results on the bulk thermodynamic properties of QCD matter from lattice are reviewed. In particular, I will stress upon the fact that lattice techniques are now entering into precision era where they can provide us with new insights on even the microscopic degrees of freedom in different phases of QCD. I will discuss some instances, from the recent studies of topological fluctuations and screening masses. The progress towards understanding the effects of anomalous $U_A(1)$ symmetry on the chiral crossover transition and transport properties of QCD matter will also be discussed.
