1. Understanding Rt using two-particle correlations by simulating proton-proton collisions in a Monte-Carlo model
University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : The observable Rt is investigated in the Monte Carlo Model Pythia in order to better understand results from experimental data obtained in the ALICE detector at CERN. The purpose is to reproduce the experiment in a simulation and use the features proposed by Pythia to dig into the unexpected outcomes. READ MORE

2. The impact of initial state radiation on jets from PbPb collisions
University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisationAbstract : This thesis presents the study of how initial state radiation impacts jets produced in pp and PbPb collisions, by investigating the transverse momentum spectra, the rapidity spectra and the differential jet shape. This is done for central collisions with nucleon-nucleom COM energy 2.76 TeV and 5.02 TeV. READ MORE

3. Parton Shower Algorithms - Possible Improvements
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisationAbstract : In this Master thesis, two directions have been explored to improve the current parton shower algorithm of the event generator Pythia. Firstly, three choices of transverse-momentum-ordered evolution variable have been studied for final-state radiation in order to allow more flexibility within the algorithm. READ MORE

4. Analysis of Monte Carlo data at low energies in electron-positron collider experiments using Initial State Radiation
University essay from KärnfysikAbstract : This report explores a novel application of the initial state radiation (radiative return) method in an electron-positron collider, to measure the electron-positron annihilation into a neutral pion and a photon reaction cross section at low energies. The challenge of using ISR events for analysis is due to the combinatorics issue presented by the extra photon(s) in the final state. READ MORE
