  1. 16. Monte Carlo production of proton-proton collision events using the ATLAS@Home framework

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

    Author : Dimitrios Sidiropoulos Kontos; [2018]
    Keywords : Particle; Physics; ATLAS; ATLAS@Home; framework; Volunteer; Computing; Monte; Carlo; BOINC; proton; collider; LHC; event; virtual; machine; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The ATLAS@Home project is a volunteer computing project, part of the larger LHC@Home project, aimed at using the computational power of personal computers from volunteers around the globe, who are interested in helping with the particle physics research taking place at the ATLAS experiment at LHC. Up this point it runs only ATLAS detector simulation tasks. READ MORE

  3. 17. Trigger Algorithms and Monte Carlo Event Generation for Dijet Searches in ATLAS and Beyond

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

    Author : Sebastian Murk; [2017]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : So far, the Standard Model (SM) has been very successful in describing non-gravitational interactions of fundamental particles. However, many of its theoretical and experimental shortcomings remain unresolved. READ MORE

  4. 18. Summarising Constraints On Dark Matter At The Large Hadron Collider

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

    Author : Isabelle John; [2017]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Dark matter is estimated to make up around 25% of the Universe, but it is not known what dark matter is. In particle physics, mediators of dark matter are used to model interactions of dark matter particles with known particles (Standard Model particles). READ MORE

  5. 19. Left-Right Symmetric Model : Putting lower bounds on the mass of the heavy, charged WR gauge boson

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Melissa Harris; [2017]
    Keywords : BSM; SM; LRSM;

    Abstract : In this project I have studied the left-right symmetric model (LRSM) as a candidate beyond standard model theory of particle physics. The most common version of the theory, called the minimal LRSM, has been studied and tested extensively for several decades. READ MORE

  6. 20. Fuel Cell for Food Preservation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemivetenskap (CHE)

    Author : Maximilian Spencer; [2016]
    Keywords : food preservation; fuel cell oxygen depletion; proton exchange membrane fuel cells; oxidative food spoilage; Hydrogen fuel cells;

    Abstract : As foodstuffs are being produced, transported and stored in greater quantities than ever before in human history and with an alarming amount of food products being lost to spoilage every year, new, environmentally friendly ways of preserving food products are being actively researched and developed in today’s world. Oxygen is a key pathway towards food decay and destruction, due to its dual roles as a source of respiration for the multitude of microorganisms that can cause food spoilage and through direct destruction through oxidation reactions within food products that cause oxidative deterioration.
