  1. 1. Defining dark jets at the particle level

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

    Author : Gustav Lindberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Particle physics; Dark matter; QCD; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : One hypothesis that attempts to explain dark matter is dark QCD, which suggests that there would be a dark sector made up of dark quarks. Dark quarks would interact with each other through dark QCD similar to how Standard Model quarks interact with each other through Standard Model QCD. READ MORE

  3. 2. Non-perturbative models of diffractive hadronic collisions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Edgars Karnickis; [2022]
    Keywords : diffractive process; proton-proton collision; elastic; parton; PDF; saturation; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a new model for diffractive proton-proton collisions is presented. Interpreting protons as systems of many partons, we treat diffraction in terms of elastic interactions between the partons of the colliding protons. READ MORE

  4. 3. Computational simulations of the Axion Longitudinal Plasma HAloscope

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Tove Klaesson; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The quantum chromodynamics axion is a very light hypothetical particle that may simultaneously solve the dark matter and the strong CP problem. Recently, a new type of haloscope that can detect the resonant conversion of axions to photons was suggested, The Axion Longitudinal Plasma HAloscope (ALPHA). READ MORE

  5. 4. 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

  6. 5. 2d Gauge Theories

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Zhou Zheng; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Yang-Mills gauge theories play prominent role in modern high energy physics and the direct non-perturbative calculations present the main challenge in the field.Two dimensional gauge theories provide a nice playground where it is possible to carry out exact computations and at the same time some non-trivial phenomena canbe studied.
