This work examines quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) generated by charged particles orbiting magnetized Bocharova–Bronnikov–Melnikov–Bekenstein (BBMB) black holes. We study charged particles’ circular orbits, deriving expressions for energy and angular momentum influenced by scalar and magnetic interactions, and investigate the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO). Using the relativistic precession (RP) model, we derive the fundamental orbital, radial, and vertical frequencies of charged particle oscillations, highlighting deviations caused by conformal scalar and magnetic interactions. Our analysis shows that the conformally coupled scalar field significantly modifies the spacetime curvature, producing a repulsive gravitational effect that shifts stable orbits outward, thereby reducing the radial oscillation frequency. Using observational QPO data from well-known astrophysical sources-GRS 1915+105, GRO J1655-40, M82 X-1, and Sgr A*-we performed Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulations to constrain black hole mass, scalar coupling, magnetic interaction, and orbital radius parameters. Our results reveal significant deviations from standard General Relativity predictions, offering clear evidence of scalar and magnetic field influences.

The challenge is to accurately track and (especially) time the particles produced in neutrino interactions in large and seamless volumes down to few-MeV energies. We propose to accomplish this through an optically-read time projection chamber (TPC) filled with high-pressure argon and equipped with both tracking and timing functions. In this work, we present a detailed study of the time-tagging capabilities of such a device, based on end-to-end optical simulations that include the effect of photon propagation, photosensor response, dark count rate and pulse reconstruction.
