  1. 1. Probing Charm Production with Three-Particle Correlations in pp Collisions

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

    Author : Kim Haupt; [2023]
    Keywords : pp collisions; charm production; three-particle correlation; Pythia; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to investigate possible correlations between charm production and baryon production in proton-proton collisions through three-particle correlations. The question attempted to be answered is where, for a given charmed baryon, the balancing anti-charm particle and balancing anti-baryon are located. READ MORE

  3. 2. Investigation of Ion Extraction Anomalies at TwinEBIS

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

    Author : Niek van Woudenberg; [2023]
    Keywords : CERN; ISOLDE; Ion Source; EBIS; REXEBIS; TwinEBIS; Ion losses; Charge Breeding; Ion Extraction; CST Studio Suite; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The electron beam ion source REXEBIS at CERN-ISOLDE delivers highly-charged ra- dioactive ions for post-acceleration in the HIE-ISOLDE LINAC. Research and develop- ment of components for electron beam ion sources is carried out at the TwinEBIS test stand, currently equipped with a Brillouin electron gun called MEDeGUN. READ MORE

  4. 3. Characterisation of the LYCCA Double-Sided Silicon Strip Detectors

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

    Author : Marwan Mohamed; [2023]
    Keywords : DSSD LYCCA HISPEC FAIR Characterisation; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The goal of this thesis work is to describe the methods used and perform comprehensive testing of the Double-Sided Silicon-Strip Detectors (DSSD) prior to their implementation in the Lund-York-Cologne CAlorimeter (LYCCA) detector. In the framework of this project, the DSSD characterisation was carried out to ensure specification compliance prior to their "in-kind contribution" delivery to the HISPEC experiment at the NUSTAR collaboration.

  5. 4. Dead layer determination for the new implantation detector of the LUNDIUM decay station

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Eleftheria Kosta; [2022]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The Nuclear Structure Group in Lund, focuses on nuclear spectroscopy of decays of rare isotopes. A new decay station, called LUNDIUM, is currently being built, which will involve silicon and germanium detectors for the study of these nuclei. This thesis focuses on the characterization of one of the new silicon detectors, the implantation one. READ MORE

  6. 5. Digitised charged-particle discrimination in CsI detector signals

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Mats Bror Linus Persson; [2022]
    Keywords : Microball; Gammasphere; pulse-shape discrimination; scintillator; charge-comparison method; cosine similarity; exotic nuclei; fusion-evaporation reaction; Argonne National Laboratory; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This work is aimed at improving the discrimination of protons and α particles in digitised signals from CsI(Tl) scintillators. This has been achieved using pulse-shape discrimination, wherein the shape of the pulses is used to learn which particle is detected. READ MORE
