  1. 1. Neutron backgrounds in neutrino-nucleus scattering at the European Spallation Source

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

    Author : José Guilherme Rodrigues de Albuquerque Vale; [2023]
    Keywords : Neutrino-nucleus scattering; background; PHITS; weight window; ESS; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Being, when built, the most powerful neutron accelerator in the world, there will be a large number of potential discoveries at the European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund. One of the most exciting of these, from a particle physics point of view, is the Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CEνNS). READ MORE

  2. 2. PHITS simulations for CEvNS experiments at ESS

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

    Author : Jesper Karlsson Gumprecht; [2021]
    Keywords : PHITS; CEvNS; Coherent; ESS; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Recently the interest for coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering experiments has increased since it is believed that through these experiments, a wide range of new physics, e.g., sterile neutrinos, could be discovered. READ MORE

  3. 3. Performance of jet subtraction in pPb and PbPb collisions, without collectivity

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

    Author : Sebastian Grabowski; [2018]
    Keywords : heavy ion: scattering; Angantyr; underlying event; subtraction; jet: quenching; non-collectivity; stacking; jet: correlation; non-colliective; background; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : We investigated the performance of basic jet subtraction, by the utilization of jet reconstruction generally used at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). This was done by studying Z-bosons, in the dielectron decay channel, and the associated jet correlation in pp, pPb and PbPb collisions, using datasets generated by the Monte Carlo generator PYTHIA8.

  4. 4. Search for Jet Quenching in Pb-Pb collisions at s_NN = 2.76 TeV

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

    Author : Adrian Nassirpour; [2015]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to further investigate the state of matter known as Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) that is produced in heavy ion collisions. This is done by analyzing jets and jet quenching in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt[]{s_\textrm{NN}}$ = 2.76 TeV from ALICE. READ MORE

  5. 5. Dynamics of the η' meson at finite temperature

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Kärnfysik

    Author : Elisabetta Perotti; [2014]
    Keywords : effective field theory; chiral perturbation theory; resonance chiral theory; large Nc limit; chiral anomaly;

    Abstract : At the present time it is unknown how the U(1)A anomaly of Quantum Chromodynamics behaves at high temperatures. We therefore want to look for thermal changes of the effects of the anomaly. READ MORE
