The document discusses neutrino oscillations and the T2K experiment. It provides a brief history of neutrino discoveries and outlines the current neutrino oscillation model. The T2K experiment uses a neutrino beam produced at J-PARC that travels 295 km to the Super-Kamiokande detector. Recent T2K results and future prospects are discussed. The document raises several open questions in neutrino physics that ongoing experiments hope to address.

TITLE: Two cultures in high energy nuclear physics
Since the mid eighties a community originating within the Bevalac program at the LBNL has sought to achieve formation of a color-deconfined quark-gluon plasma in heavy ion (A-A) collisions using successively higher collision energies at the AGS, SPS, RHIC and now the LHC, emphasizing a flowing dense "partonic" medium as the principal phenomenon. During much of the same period the high energy physics (HEP) community studying elementary collisions (e-e, e-p, p-p) developed the modern theory of QCD, emphasizing dijet production (fragmentation of scattered partons to observable hadrons) as the principal (calculable) phenomenon. Initially it was assumed that the QGP phenomenon in most-central A-A collisions might be distinguished from the HEP dijet phenomenon in elementary collisions. However, strong overlaps in phenomenology have revealed significant conflicts between QGP and HEP "cultures," especially at RHIC and LHC energies. In this talk I review some of the history and contrast an assortment of experimental evidence and interpretations from the two cultures with suggested conflict resolution.

Anisotropic Kondo effect
Wael Chibani (email: chibani@fhi-berlin.mpg.de)
Using the numerical renormalization group (NRG), we study the STM tunneling current through a Co atom embedded on an anisotropic lattice and experiencing a magnetic field in both directions, parallel and perpendicular to the anisotropy, as was measured by Otte et al. [1]. We introduce the Kondo-Anderson hybrid model (KAHM) Hamiltonian, by which we describe the system, where we take the spin of the Co atom as being S=3/2, and present the mapping of the self energy representation [2] onto our model. After discussing the easy-axis and easy-plan anisotropy, we demonstrate, that our problem is best described by an easy-axis anisotropy. Moreover, the experimental spectra show a dependence of the splitting of the Kondo resonance at finite magnetic fields on the direction of the magnetic field with respect to the anisotropy, which we will also discuss.
Finally, when comparing our NRG calculated current with the experimentally measured one, we found, that, the Kondo temperature as given in the experiment is too small and thus, we choose an effective temperature to describe the system.

Abstract
The double polarization (beam-recoil) observables Ox and Oz have been measured for the reac- tion γp → K+Λ from threshold production to E ∼ 1500MeV. The data were obtained with the linearly polarized beam of the GRAAL facility. Values for the target asymmetry T could also be extracted despite the use of an unpolarized target. Analyses of our results by two isobar models tend to confirm the necessity to include new or poorly known resonances in the 1900MeV mass region.

Neutrino is a hardly reacting with matter, It can travel right through the earth without interacting, As an example 70 billion Neutrinos per square second continue coming from the sun. These Neutrino parts traveled through the Earth Crust to the detection point and they synchronized between the 2 points to the nearest Nanno second (A billion of a second) in this distance, they discovered that the neutrino were 60 seconds ahead of what light takes to cover this distance. It's the first time we have an experimental evidence something faster than light and that will make a major change in physics as we know it now.

Polarization observable measurements for γp → K+Λ and γp → K+Σ for energies up to 1.5 GeV - The European Physical Journal A, Hadrons and Nuclei, January 2007, Vol. 31, N. 1, pp. 73-93, ISSN: 1434-6001, doi: 10.1140/epja/i2006-10167-8

Abstract
Beam asymmetries and hyperon recoil polarizations for the reactions γ p → K +Λ and γ p → K +Σ0 have been measured from the threshold production to 1500MeV with the GRAAL facility located at the ESRF in Grenoble. These results complement the database for the beam asymmetry, covering for the first time the production threshold region. Recent theoretical analyses are presented for which the beam asymmetry data bring interesting new information and allow to better determine some resonance parameters. Most importantly, these results strengthen the need of a new D13 state around 1900MeV.
The Neutrino: Elusive Misfit and Evolutionary DiscoveriesSon Cao
We live in a matrix of neutrinos, the most abundant and perhaps the most elusive of all the known massive particles. The neutrino’s interactions dictate how the Sun shines, how the Sun will evolve, and the dynamics of dying stars. The neutrino, a tangible misfit, also tells us that our theory of the fundamental building blocks of Nature called the “Standard Model” is incomplete. There have been four neutrino-related Nobel prizes in physics awarded since 1995, but to date, the neutrino is still among the most mysterious of all known particles. A recent publication of the T2K experiment, one of the ten most remarkable discoveries of science in 2020, suggests that neutrinos do not respect the charge-conjugation parity-reversal (CP) symmetry, which in turn could explain how our matter-dominated Universe has emerged. The talk will highlight what we have known and what we expect to know in the following decades about this elusive particle. Also, we will discuss how to weigh the extraordinarily tiny mass of the neutrino and detect the CP violation via a quantum mechanical phenomenon called neutrino oscillation.

My little stories, Vietnam & Experimental High Energy PhysicsSon Cao
This is a science dialog for high school students in Japan. I did tell some little stories of my academic path: from a small village of Vietnam, to Hanoi as undergraduate student, then to United State for Ph.D degree and went to Japan after graduation. The main message from these stories is that I enjoyed my journey which I could not imagine when I was in high school and I hope that they (students in class) will enjoy their journey as well. That is the most important thing in life. Then I expressed my inspiration toward symmetry, one of the most beautiful and important concepts in physics. I gave examples from classical physics to model physics. Then I brought up a very fundamental question how the universe begin if the symmetry is held everywhere. I went through the concept of symmetry breaking, and introduced neutrino particle from which we could find the answer for this fundamental question. I also mentioned about the Nobel and Breakthrough prize last year for the contributions in the neutrino physics which I am working on. In the final part of this section, I mentioned about the benefit obtained if they choose to be particle physicists and what they need to prepare for this career. In the final section, I introduced a bit about Vietnam culture in the corresponding to Japanese culture. This section is required from the school since their student will come to Vietnam for excursion this December. While I made some comparison which I think students can find useful when they explore Vietnam culture, the main message I delivered is that culture, which is not better or worse, just different and we need to respect the difference.
Các nhà khoa học tin rằng, mỗi thiên hà luôn có một dải vật chất tối bao quanh. Vì vậy mà quan sát tương tác giữa các thiên hà cho phép các nhà khoa học tìm hiểu về tính chất của vật chất tối thông qua tương tác giữa chúng. Ở đây, các nhà khoa học dùng kính thiên văn Hubble và kính thiên văn cực lớn của đài quan sát Nam châu Âu để quan sát chùm thiên hà Abell 3827 (1.3 tỷ năm ánh sáng từ Trái Đất, tức là khoảng 1/10 độ tuổi của vũ trụ tính từ thời điểm “Vụ nổ lớn”[3] ). Chùm thiên hà này có 4 thiên hà lớn ở trung tâm. Các nhà khoa học quan sát thấy một thiên hà (trong hình ) có khoảng cách vào cỡ 5000 năm ánh sáng so với dải vật chất tối tương ứng của nó. Bạn có thể hình dung như có bốn người bạn gặp nhau, mỗi người đều mang theo một con chó. Những con chó này đứng sau người chủ của mình, nhưng có một con vì một lý do nào đó mà nó đứng cách xa hơn bình thường so với những con khác (ví dụ: nhỏ con hơn..). Đó có thể là bằng chứng cho sự tương tác giữa vật chất tối không chỉ thông qua lực hấp dẫn.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
