  1. 6. Understanding Rt using two-particle correlations by simulating proton-proton collisions in a Monte-Carlo model

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

    Author : Johan Leygonie; [2021]
    Keywords : QGP; Quark-Gluon-Plasma; Rt; Particle Physics; Proton-proton Collisions; Pythia; Monte-Carlo Model; Bachelor s Thesis; Heavy-ion Collisions; ALICE; CERN; Relative Transverse Activity; Jets; Two-Particles Correlations; Quantum Physics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The observable Rt is investigated in the Monte Carlo Model Pythia in order to better understand results from experimental data obtained in the ALICE detector at CERN. The purpose is to reproduce the experiment in a simulation and use the features proposed by Pythia to dig into the unexpected outcomes. READ MORE

  3. 7. 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

  4. 8. 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

  5. 9. Investigating RT using two-particle angular correlations in proton-proton collisions

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

    Author : Dilan Chroscik; [2020]
    Keywords : particle physics; proton-proton collisions; two-particle angular correlations; underlying event; relative transverse activity; ALICE; LHC; collective flow; long range correlations; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The observable, RT , is investigated using two-dimensional (∆η, ∆φ) angular correlations, where ∆η and ∆φ are the differences in pseudorapidity and azimuthal angle respectively, between the trigger and associated tracks. The analysed data consists of reconstructed tracks, from proton-proton collisions at collision energy ps = 13 TeV, taken from the ALICE detector at the LHC. READ MORE

  6. 10. J/psi suppression via string interactions in Au-Au collisions at 200 GeV/NN

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Julian Boy; [2020]
    Keywords : Suppression; gold-gold collisions; string interactions; fluxtubes nuclear modification factor; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In 2018 the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) reported sig- nals of a strongly coupled quark gluon plasma. This plasma is thought to be the reason for J/psi suppression when a fraction of the produced J/psi's dissolves due to the high-energy density of quarks and gluons. READ MORE
