A source list to support DEI/EDI work in mathematical sciences

This article presents a source list to support departments in creating more equitable, diverse, and inclusive mathematics classrooms. Included are relevant general-interest books, as well as articles and books presenting research results about how matters of inequity, exclusion, and homogeneity surface in educational contexts. We also present sources more specifically focused on research about the past and present of relationships between mathematics and gender, (dis)ability, race, and class, as well as articles proposing approaches and case studies in mathematics classrooms.Peer reviewe

Weak Decays of Strange and Light Quarks

The present report of the RF2 Topical Group to Snowmass 2021 describes the physics case for the studies of weak decays of strange and light quarks. Ongoing and proposed precision measurements of kaon, hyperon, pion and $\eta^{(\prime)}$ meson decays allow for unique tests of the Standard Model (SM). This includes precision measurements of the elements of the CKM quark-mixing matrix leading to stringent unitarity tests; precision symmetry tests including lepton flavor and lepton number conservation; and precision lepton flavor universality tests. In the context of models beyond the SM description, strange and light quark decay experiments provide sensitivity to new physics up to the PeV mass scale, as well as leading sensitivities to scenarios involving feebly interacting hidden sectors below the GeV mass scale
