  1. 31. Strange Hadron Production as a Function of Multiplicity and Transverse Spherocity in proton-proton Collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$~TeV

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

    Author : Maria Mårtenson; [2018]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the study of the K$^{0}_{s}$, $\Lambda$, and $\bar{\Lambda}$ production in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$~TeV recorded by the ALICE experiment at the LHC. The K$^{0}_{s}$, $\Lambda$, and $\bar{\Lambda}$ particles are reconstructed in the transverse momentum ($p_{\mathrm{T}}$) range of $1.0-12. READ MORE

  2. 32. Electrons from heavy- flavor semileptonic decays in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV measured with the ALICE detector at the LHC

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

    Author : Madeleine Petersson Sjögren; [2018]
    Keywords : LHC ALICE Heavy-ion physics particle physics heavy-flavor; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Heavy-flavor hadrons, containing charm and bottom quarks, serve as a tool available for the characterization of the hot and dense strongly interacting Quark Gluon Plasma state of matter, produced in heavy-ion collisions. As a benchmark for heavy-ion collision measurements, proton-proton collisions are also studied. READ MORE

  3. 33. 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

  4. 34. Development, Testing and Future Outlook of a Penalized Spline as a Representation of the Standard Model Background in Dijet Searches

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

    Author : Alexander Ekman; [2017]
    Keywords : spline; p-spline; SPLINTER; b-spline; penalized spline; standard model; standard model background; SM; SMB; dijet; ATLAS; dark matter; MadGraph; python; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to develop, test and evaluate a penalized basis spline as a method for representing the Standard Model background in dijet searches from proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider. Current representations of the Standard Model background are complex and dependent on current assumptions of the Standard Model. READ MORE

  5. 35. Making ATLAS Data from CERN Accessible to the General Public : The Development and Evaluation of a Learning Resource in Experimental Particle Physics

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskaplig kommunikation och lärande (ECE)

    Author : Svea Ekelin; Louise Hagesjö; [2017]
    Keywords : CERN; ATLAS Outreach; ATLAS Open Data; Analogy; Variation Theory; Cognitive Load Theory; Experimental Particle Physics; Histogram Analyzer; Learning Resource; Curiosity; General Public; Website; CERN; ATLAS Outreach; ATLAS Open Data; Analogi; Variationsteori; Kognitiv Belastningsteori; Experimentell Partikelfysik; Histogramanalys; Laromedel; Nyfikenhet; Allmanheten; Webbsida;

    Abstract : In 2016, the ATLAS experiment at CERN released data from 100 trillion proton-proton collisions to the general public. In connection to this release the ATLAS Outreach group has developed several tools for visualizing and analyzing the data, one of which is a Histogram analyzer. READ MORE
