  1. 1. Upgrade of the LHCb simulation framework with advanced particle event generators

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Ruben Pozzi; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The LHCb experiment is one of the main detectors in function at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. In order to interpret the data recorded by the detector, Monte Carlo (MC) samples are used as a way to validate and test theories by comparison with the experimental data. READ MORE

  3. 2. Study of the decay modes of Ξc0→pK−K−π+ with the LHCb experiment.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Kärnfysik

    Author : Yuliya Bilinskaya; [2022]
    Keywords : Particle physics; hadron physics; resonance; particle decay; LHCb; Dalitz plot; Lambda resonance; Delta resonance;

    Abstract : This thesis reports the first indications of the Λ(1520) and ∆(1232)++ decay modes in the Ξc0 → pK−K−π+ decay. The obtained fractions relative the inclusive Ξc0 → pK−K−π+ decay are (6.4±0.6)% and (32. READ MORE

  4. 3. Rare Weak Decays of the Omega Baryon

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Kärnfysik

    Author : Cornelis Johannes Gerardus Mommers; [2022]
    Keywords : hadron; physics; nuclear; particle;

    Abstract : We study rare decays of the Omega baryon using SU(3) chiral perturbation theory, a successfuleffective field theory of quantum chromodynamics at low energies. At leading-order, we calculatethe branching fractions of the decay Ω− → Ξππ for all possible combinations of pions. READ MORE

  5. 4. 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

  6. 5. Investigating the Electron Reconstruction Efficiency at the LHCb

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Martin Andersson; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : An exploratory investigation of the electron reconstruction efficiencyat the LHCb is presented. The study is done through simulations ofparticle interaction with the full LHCb detector setup, both by firingsingle particles into the detector and by generating the decay of Bmesons into J/psi K, where the J/psi decays into dileptons.
