  1. 31. Anomaly Detection in Computer Networks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Polyxeni Ioannidou; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this degree project, we study the anomaly detection problem in log files of computer networks. In particular, we try to find an efficient way to detect anomalies in our data, which consist of different logging messages from different systems in CERN’s network for the LHC-b experiment.

  3. 32. Developing a Resonance Correction Scheme in the LHC

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/FREIA

    Author : Elias Waagaard; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Non-linear errors in the magnetic field of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN often lead to undesirable resonances and instabilities in the particle motion, which can negatively affect the operations of the accelerator. This project focuses on developing a new correction scheme with a response matrix approach to optimize the values of the skew sextupolar correctors of the LHC at injection, in order to mitigate the impact of resonance driving terms (RDTs).

  4. 33. Event Geometry and Anisotropic Flow in Proton-Proton Collisions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Johannes Holst; [2021]
    Keywords : high energy physics; particle physics; proton; collision; quark-gluon plasma; flow; anisotropy; anisotropic flow; elliptic flow; initial state; geometry; eccentricity; gaussian; cms; alice; lhc; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : We seek to better understand the relationship between an anisotropic distribution of partons in the initial state of pp-collisions and the amount of elliptic flow. We do this through the implementation of a new model that is based in generating positions for multiparton interactions from the uneven volume created by the overlap of two Gaussians. READ MORE

  5. 34. The impact of initial state radiation on jets from PbPb collisions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Hilmi Kycyku; [2021]
    Keywords : heavy-ion physics; QGP; quark-gluon plasma; kvark-gluon plasma; initial state radiation; jets; medium response; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : 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

  6. 35. Towards observing HH with ATLAS: ZH production and assessing theoretical uncertainties

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Jonatan Gisslén; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Even though the Standard Model of particle physics represents one of the triumphs of modern physics and seems to predict the outcome of any collision experiment, it has several shortcomings and therefore needs to be extended. After the discovery of the Higgs boson, one of the main aims of experimental particle physics is to probe the Standard Model for measurements that deviate from predictions, as this would imply new physics.
