Ultra-high Q cavity-based search for the Dark Photon: new exclusion limit from Dark SRF phase 1 and step forward for phase 2
We present here the first results of Dark SRF, a light-shining-through-wall (LSW) experiment that leverages ultra-high quality factor superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities to search for dark photons. The use of Nb SRF cavities combined with a strict calibration and measurement protocol increased sensitivity to dark photons by several orders of magnitude compared to other LSW experiments, as demonstrated by our new limit that excluded a broad range of previously unstudied dark photon mass and mixing angle.In addition to the results of the search conducted in liquid helium using 1.3GHz SRF cavities, we also present the first steps of the second phase of the experiment, which will take place in a dilution refrigerator using 2.6GHz SRF cavities. These experiments are part of a wider effort of the Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems (SQMS) Center to employ ultra-high Q SRF cavities to search for Beyond the SM particles and wavelike dark matter.

Searching for Sterile Neutrinos Using an Exclusive 1$\mu$;1$\rho$ Selection: The Short Baseline Near Detector (SBND)
Over the last two decades, we have seen several of short-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments report results which challenged mainstream theories of neutrino oscillations. On the forefront of exploring these anomalies further is Fermilab's Short-Baseline Neutrino (SBN) program, which consists of two large liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs), SBND and ICARUS, placed in alignment with the Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB). I'll be showing the strength that a 1mu1p selection at the SBN program can have for delivering world-leading sensitivity to distortions in the muon neutrino spectrum due to sterile neutrino oscillations.
Towards a numu CC exclusive cross section measurement with one proton and one muon in the final state at the NOvA near detector
NOvA is a long-baseline neutrino experiment at Fermilab that studies neutrino oscillations via electron neutrino appearance and muon neutrino disappearance. The NOvA Near Detector, located 1 km from the NuMI target, records a high rate of neutrino interactions in the energy range of 1-5 GeV. One of the limitations in precise extraction of oscillations is the large systematic uncertainty on neutrino-nucleus interactions. The high rate of neutrino interactions in the NOvA Near Detector provides the opportunity to probe various neutrino interaction processes and nuclear models, via the extraction of cross sections of particular final states. Nuclear models can be improved by measuring neutrino-nucleus cross sections with respect to kinematic variables which are known to be more sensitive to nuclear effects, such as transverse kinematic imbalance (TKI) variables. Usage of TKI variables allows for more direct constraints on models of neutrino scattering, as these variables can more directly investigate, for instance, effects of Fermi motion and final state interactions. In this work, we describe progress towards a method of identifying and reconstructing protons in the NOvA near detector to enable the cross section measurement of charged current neutrino interactions with a visible muon and a proton in the final state, reported in TKI variables.
Search for numu Disappearance in the Short-Baseline Neutrino Program Utilizing an Exclusive 1mu1p QE-Like Final State
The Short-Baseline Neutrino (SBN) program at Fermilab is searching for neutrino oscillations over a short baseline as a signature of a sterile neutrino with a mass splitting of about 1eV2. Such oscillations would drive the disappearance of muon neutrinos in the Booster Neutrino Beam between the detectors of the SBN Program. We present progress on an analysis to search for muon neutrino disappearance between the SBND and ICARUS detectors (the SBN Program's near and far detectors, respectively). This analysis leverages the one muon, one proton, quasi-elastic-like final state, which provides the best resolution for reconstructing the neutrino energy. The analysis incorporates a comprehensive set of systematic uncertainties in the neutrino flux, interaction, and detector model. This analysis will soon be completed as part of the first oscillation results at SBN.

Exclusive four pion photoproduction in ultraperipheral Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV
The intense photon fluxes from relativistic nuclei provide an opportunity to study photonuclear interactions in ultraperipheral collisions. The measurement of coherently photoproduced π + π − π + π − final states in ultraperipheral Pb–Pb collisions at √s NN = 5.02 TeV is presented for the first time. The cross section, dσ/dy, times the branching ratio (ρ →π + π + π − π − ) is found to be 47.8±2.3 (stat.)± 7.7 (syst.) mb in the rapidity interval |y| < 0.5. The invariant mass distribution is not well described with a single Breit-Wigner resonance. The production of two interfering resonances, ρ(1450) and ρ(1700), provides a good description of the data. The values of the masses (m) and widths (Γ) of the resonances extracted from the fit are m 1 = 1385±14 (stat.)±3 (syst.) MeV/c 2 , Γ 1 = 431±36 (stat.)±82 (syst.) MeV/c 2 , m 2 = 1663±13 (stat.)±22 (syst.) MeV/c 2 and Γ 2 = 357 ± 31 (stat.)±49 (syst.) MeV/c 2 , respectively. The measured cross sections times the branching ratios are compared to recent theoretical predictions.

GERT EXCLUSIVE-OR combining paths and loops of electrical networks
Program takes a network with multi-parameter branches and reduces it to a network having a single branch connecting source nodes to sink nodes. The program calculates probability, expected time, and variance in the time to go from each source node to each sink node of the GERT network.
Quadrupole mass filter with means to generate a noise spectrum exclusive of the resonant frequency of the desired ions to deflect stable ions
A mass spectrometer for the separation or separate indication of ions of different specific electric charges is reported. The instrument uses a periodically varying electric field in its analyzing section to excite the injected ions into oscillations while traveling along their trajectories which are either stable or unstable depending on specific parameters. Only stable trajectory ions pass through the electric field to the collector for indication.
Ultrafiltration by a compacted clay membrane. I - Oxygen and hydrogen isotopic fractionation. II - Sodium ion exclusion at various ionic strengths.
Laboratory experiments were carried out to determine the magnitude of the isotopic fractionation of distilled water and of 0.01N NaCl forced to flow at ambient temperature under a hydraulic pressure drop of 100 bars across a montmorillonite disk compacted to a porosity of 35% by a pressure of 330 bars. The ultrafiltrates in both experiments were depleted in D by 2.5% and in O-18 by 0.8% relative to the residual solution. No additional isotopic fractionation due to a salt-filtering mechanism was observed at NaCl concentrations up to 0.01N. Adsorption is most likely the principal mechanism which produces isotopic fractionation, but molecular diffusion may play a minor role. The results suggest that oxygen and hydrogen isotopic fractionation of ground water during passage through compacted clayey sediments should be a common occurrence, in accord with published interpretations of isotopic data from the Illinois and Alberta basins. It is shown how it is possible to proceed from the ion exchange capacity of clay minerals and, by means of the Donnan membrane equilibrium concept and the Teorell-Meyer-Siever theory, develop a theory to explain why and to what extent ultrafiltration occurs when solutions of known concentration are forced to flow through a clay membrane.
