  1. 16. Production of J/Ψ mesons in p–Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider

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

    Author : Madeleine Petersson Sjögren; [2015]
    Keywords : particle physics; heavy-ion collisions; Quark Gluon Plasma; J Ψ production; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Data from p–Pb collisions reconstructed with the ALICE experiment at √s = 5.02 TeV is analyzed to study J/Ψ production (a possible Quark Gluon Plasma signal) in different pT ranges. READ MORE

  3. 17. Search for Jet Quenching in Pb-Pb collisions at s_NN = 2.76 TeV

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

    Author : Adrian Nassirpour; [2015]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to further investigate the state of matter known as Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) that is produced in heavy ion collisions. This is done by analyzing jets and jet quenching in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt[]{s_\textrm{NN}}$ = 2.76 TeV from ALICE. READ MORE

  4. 18. Search for azimuthal anisotropic flow in proton-proton collisions

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

    Author : Adam Johansson; [2015]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In high energy heavy ion collisions a new state of matter called quark gluon plasma is produced. An important observable is azimuthal anisotropy flow. Data from the ALICE experiment is used in the search for azimuthal anisotropic flow in pp collisions, at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 7$ TeV. p--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 5. READ MORE

  5. 19. Dynamics of the η' meson at finite temperature

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Kärnfysik

    Author : Elisabetta Perotti; [2014]
    Keywords : effective field theory; chiral perturbation theory; resonance chiral theory; large Nc limit; chiral anomaly;

    Abstract : At the present time it is unknown how the U(1)A anomaly of Quantum Chromodynamics behaves at high temperatures. We therefore want to look for thermal changes of the effects of the anomaly. READ MORE

  6. 20. Dihadron correlations and flow

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Leonora Vesterbacka Olsson; [2013]
    Keywords : LHC; ALICE; Heavy-Ion Collisions; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis treats two methods for the computation of the flow found in Quark Gluon Plasma produced in lead-lead collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76\,$TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC. READ MORE
