  1. 6. Study of the Loss of Information from the Modified Mass-Drop Tagger in PYTHIA 8 for Z to qqbar

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Markus Ernstsson; [2017]
    Keywords : PYTHIA; Jet; mMDT; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the information loss from the modified Mass-Drop tagging of a Z to qqbar jet is studied for a pp collision at LHC centre-of-mass energies in PYTHIA 8 using FastJet 3. The jet created by the Z has minimum transverse momentum of 200 GeV. READ MORE

  3. 7. High energy gamma ray emission and multi-wavelength view of the AGN PKS 0537-441

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE); Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för datavetenskap (DV)

    Author : Emma Fransson; [2017]
    Keywords : astrophysics; AGN; PKS 0537-441; jet; accretion; synchrotron self compton; spectral energy distribution;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the analysis of Very High Energy (VHE) emission from the Active Galactic Nucleus PKS 0537-441. It also aims to put the results in a wider context by implementing previous work done on this source. The data chosen for the analysis is provided by the Fermi-LAT satellite and covers the energy range between 300 MeV and 300 GeV. READ MORE

  4. 8. Design, Construction and Characterization of a Portable Fast-Neutron Detector

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik

    Author : Nicholai Mauritzsson; [2017]
    Keywords : fast-neutrons; detector; plastic scintillator; NE110; neutron tracking; scintillation; spallation; european spallation source; sonnig; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : At European Spallation Source ERIC, 2 GeV proton bunches will be accelerated towards a tungsten target where spallation will occur, producing a wide neutron energy spectrum. Despite the shielding and moderators in place to stop and/or reduce their energy, a significant portion of the most energetic neutrons, called prompt neutrons, might still reach the sample position of a neutron-scattering instrument.

  5. 9. Trigger Algorithms and Monte Carlo Event Generation for Dijet Searches in ATLAS and Beyond

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

    Author : Sebastian Murk; [2017]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : So far, the Standard Model (SM) has been very successful in describing non-gravitational interactions of fundamental particles. However, many of its theoretical and experimental shortcomings remain unresolved. READ MORE

  6. 10. 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
