  1. 1. Majorana Neutrinos - Same Sign Di-Muon Investigations in 8 TeV Datasets with the BUMPHUNTER Algorithm

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

    Author : Einar Elén; [2016]
    Keywords : BUMPHUNTER; Majorana Neutrino; ATLAS; Di-muon; Neutrino; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : A hypertest-algorithm, the BUMPHUNTER, is introduced briefly and tested by probing events containing muons in 8 TeV datasets from the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN against a background spectrum created by selecting muons from different collisions. The hypertest looked for excesses of same sign di-muon pairs which could indicate the existence of a Majorana neutrino. READ MORE

  2. 2. Optimization of a search for doubly-charged Higgs bosons in same-sign di-muon final states at a center of mass energy of 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Leonora Vesterbacka Olsson; [2015]
    Keywords : Same-sign di-leptons; Beyond Standard Model; Doubly-charged Higgs boson; ATLAS; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis an optimization of a previously performed inclusive search for beyond Standard Model Physics in same-sign di-lepton final states is performed, but tuned for a doubly-charged Higgs boson decaying to same-sign di-muons. The doubly-charged Higgs boson is a proposed fundamental particle whose existence would provide evidence for theoretical extensions of the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. READ MORE
