Machine learning is now widely used in subatomic physics, yet most applications remain focused on task-specific models embedded in complex workflows involving data analysis, large-scale simulations, and inference. In this talk, I discuss a shift toward AI as scientific infrastructure, highlighting the emerging roles of foundation models, simulation surrogates, and AI agents in astrophysics and...

With the observation of gravitational waves (GWs) in 2015 by the terrestial interferometer LIGO, a new era of fundamental physics begun. Since then, a network of GW ground-based interferemeters has scrutinized the band of frequencies in the Hz to kHz range, finding almost hundred mergers of binaries of black holes or neutron stars. In 2023, a signal in the nHz band was discovered using the...

The electro-weak part of Standard Model of Particle Physics predicts a neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) of 10-32 e cm, far below current experimental sensitivities. Therefore, a non-vanishing nEDM by current experiments would be an unambiguous signature for new physics. Furthermore, any signal would indicate additional charge-parity violation beyond the Standard Model, giving new clues to...

Standard hadrons are composed of either a quark-antiquark pair or three quarks, with their properties accurately described by the quark model. However, ”exotic” hadrons, containing more than three quarks or including gluons, are also theorized. The 2003 discovery of the X(3873) by the Belle collaboration, a four-quark state with unexpected properties, sparked intense interest in these exotic...

Precision measurements in beta decay play an essential role in the search for new physics beyond the standard model (SM), by probing “exotic” phenomena such as scalar and tensor interactions. The presence of these interactions would lead to deviations in specific observables from their SM predictions. The study of the full beta energy spectrum offers a sensitive mean to probe these exotic...
