  1. 1. Quartic Higgs self-coupling at a 100 TeV pp collider

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Sebastian Grabowski; [2021]
    Keywords : Quartic Higgs self-coupling; Triple Higgs production; Future Circular Collider; FCC; MadGraph; MadAnalysis; Events selection; selection strategy; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : We present a parton-level phenomenological study of triple-Higgs production at leading order in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 100 TeV with an integrated luminosity of 30 ab^-1. This study aims to estimate the prospects for measuring the signal hhh production observable at the Future Circular Collider. READ MORE

  2. 2. Looking for mono-Z signatures in Z-boson and scalar dark matter interactions

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Magnus Bertilsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Scalar Dark Matter; Z boson; Mono-Z signatures;

    Abstract : Even though there is a multitude of observational evidence from cosmology and astrophysics, the standard model does not include a suitable dark matter candidate and therefore physics beyond the standard model is necessary. There are hypotheses of what the particle candidate could be coming from theories such as supersymmetry or extra dimensions. READ MORE

  3. 3. QFT and Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Sheila Chauwinoir; [2020]
    Keywords : quantum field theory; abelian and non-abelian gauge theories; quantum electrodynamics; quantum chromodynamics; electroweak interaction; spontaneous symmetry breaking; higgs mechanism;

    Abstract : The aim of this project is to understand the structure of the Standard Model of the particle physics. Therefore quantum field theories (QFT) are studied in the both cases of abelian and non-abelian gauge theories i.e. quantum electrodynamics (QED), quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and electroweak interaction are reviewed.

  4. 4. Renormalization Group Evolution Analysis of the Gauged Froggatt-Nielsen Mechanism in 2-Higgs-doublet Models

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Robin Plantey; [2019]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis, we consider a 2-Higgs-doublet model with a gauged Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism as an extension of the standard model. We assume that (i) the theory at the electroweak scale is the low energy limit of a theory defined at a scale $\Lambda_{FN}$ (ii) the Yukawa couplings at $\Lambda_{FN}$ are generated by the Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism.

  5. 5. The kaon electromagnetic mass difference in AdS/QCD

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Jack Borthwick; [2016]
    Keywords : particle physics; AdS QCD; AdS CFT; kaon; electromagnetic mass difference; quantum field theory; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a holographic model for quantum chromodynamics (QCD) is used to estimate the electromagnetic contribution to the kaon mass difference. The principal ideas of the model are inspired by the AdS/CFT correspondence, which is believed to be exact. READ MORE
