1. 16. Optimising the present and designing the future: a novel SPS injection system

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/FREIA

   Author : Elias Waagaard; [2022]
   Keywords : Numerical optimisation; injection; Super Proton Synchrotron; neural networks;

   Abstract : The Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) injection system plays a fundamental role to preserve the quality of injected high-brightness beams for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) physics program and to maintain the maximum storable intensity. The present system is the result of years of upgrades and patches of a system not conceived for such intensities and beam qualities. READ MORE

3. 17. Study of the doubly charged Higgs boson single production using lepton parton distribution functions with the ATLAS detector

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

   Author : Daniel Magdalinski; [2022]
   Keywords : doubly charged Higgs boson; ATLAS; lepton parton distribution function; same-sign; dilepton; beyond standard model; LHC; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Searches for the doubly charged Higgs(H±±) aim to find evidence for models that could explain the origin of neutrino masses. Earlier searches at the LHC have used different production processes for the H±±, with the recent development of lepton parton distribution functions new leptonic production processes are able to be studied.

4. 18. Autoencoder Compression in High Energy Physics

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

   Author : Sten Åstrand; [2022]
   Keywords : High energy physics; LHC; ATLAS; hadron jet; machine learning; autoencoder; dimensionality reduction; artificial intelligence; data compression; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Situated in Geneva, Switzerland, the Large Hadron Collider is largest particle accelerator in the world, and as such, its operation carries with it some of the greatest technical challenges ever faced. Among them are the huge demands put on data storage capacity by experiments in particle physics, both in terms of rate and volume of data. READ MORE

5. 19. Designing a New SPS Injection System With Numerical Optimisation

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

   Author : Elias Waagaard; [2022]
   Keywords : Hierarchical optimisation; injection system; kicker magnet; septa; genetic algorithms;

   Abstract : The Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) injection system plays a fundamental role to preserve the quality of injected high-brightness beams for the LHC physics program and to maintain the maximum storable intensity. The present set-up is the result of years of upgrades and patches of a system that was not conceived for such intensities and beam qualities. READ MORE

6. 20. Projections for charm balance functions in heavy-ion collisions

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

   Author : Tilde Bonnevier Wallstedt; [2022]
   Keywords : Heavy-ion physics; quark-gluon plasma; QGP; balance function; charm quark; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In this thesis, pp collisions were simulated using PYTHIA. D+ D- and D0 D0bar balance functions were created in order to contribute with a reference point for future balance functions measured in real data from Pb-Pb collisions. READ MORE
