  1. 1. Exploring electroweak symmetry breaking in the scale-invariant Two-Higgs-Doublet Model

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Erik Rustas; [2023]
    Keywords : Two-Higgs-Doublet Models; 2HDM; Scale-invariance; Baryogenesis; BSM; Baryon Asymmetry; Coleman-Weinberg Potential; Theoretical Particle Physics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the properties of a general scale-invariant Two-Higgs-Doublet Model and its phenomenological consequences with focus on the scalar sector. The concept suggests that introducing more CP-violation, both spontaneous and explicit, may make it possible to meet the Sakharov conditions and account for the Universe's baryon asymmetry.

  3. 2. Exploring New Physics Through Collider and Gravitational Wave Measurements with Artificial Neural Networks: the Case Study of QCD-like Technicolor

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Ashar Ahmed Kamal; [2023]
    Keywords : Artificial Neural Networks; ANN; Beyond the Standard Model; BSM; parameter space scan; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : With physicists actively exploring Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) theories that may fill in the gaps of the Standard Model (SM), a fundamental question arises: which parameters hold physical significance? In this thesis, we present our initial progress towards the development of a model-independent artificial intelligence framework designed for conducting parameter space scans in BSM scenarios. Our framework incorporates several publicly available high-energy physics packages, namely SPheno, HiggsBounds, HiggsSignals, and CosmoTransitions. READ MORE

  4. 3. Defining dark jets at the particle level

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

    Author : Gustav Lindberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Particle physics; Dark matter; QCD; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : One hypothesis that attempts to explain dark matter is dark QCD, which suggests that there would be a dark sector made up of dark quarks. Dark quarks would interact with each other through dark QCD similar to how Standard Model quarks interact with each other through Standard Model QCD. READ MORE

  5. 4. Phase Transitions in the Two-Higgs-Doublet Model with a Softly-Broken Z2 Symmetry

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Filip Gustavsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Particle Physics; Beyond Standard Model; Two-Higgs Doublet Model; 2HDM; Electroweak Phase Transitions; Strong First-order Phase Transition; Dimensional Reduction; CP-conserving; Softly broken Z2-symmetry; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) is an extension to the Standard Model which adds a second Higgs doublet. This extension provides freedom within the model, in comparison to the Standard Model, which makes it possible to study strong electroweak phase transitions. READ MORE

  6. 5. Laser Metrology for assembly of ATLAS ITk-Strips

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Jonathan Arvin; Johannes Berg Wallin; Hugo Eskner; Olof Lindman Jardfelt; [2023]
    Keywords : Laser metrology; ATLAS; Inner Tracker ITk ; Micro Epsilon;

    Abstract : The ATLAS detector at CERN's Large Hadron Collider has been instrumental in scientific discoveries,including the Higgs particle. As part of the High Luminosity (HL) upgrade, the current Inner Detector (ID) isbeing replaced by the new IInner Tracker (ITk), and Uppsala University is collaborating with industrypartner NOTE to produce around 700 modules for the ITk.
