  1. 21. Derivation of Improved K^0_L Response Uncertainty for use in the Jet Energy Scale Calibration at ATLAS

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

    Author : Alexander Ekman; [2019]
    Keywords : kaon; neutral kaon; K^0_L; K_Long; klong; single-particle response; response; detector response; calorimeter; ATLAS; CERN; jets; trigger level analysis; TLA; physics list; Monte Carlo; MC; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The Standard Model of particle physics (SM) attempts to describe the fundamental particles and how they interact with each other. This model is however incomplete, as shown by various experimental observations. ATLAS is one of the experiments currently in operation at the Large Hadron Collider, which aims to search for new physics beyond the SM. READ MORE

  3. 22. Using Boosted Decision Trees in the Search for Heavy Neutral Higgs Bosons in the ATLAS Experiment

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Hesham El Faham; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A search for heavy neutral Higgs bosons in the τ_μ τ_had channel is presented. The analysis was performed using approximately 32 fb^−1 of 13 TeV proton-proton collision data with the ATLAS detector and improves upon earlier ATLAS searches through the use of Boosted Decision Trees (BDT). ..

  4. 23. Electrons from heavy- flavor semileptonic decays in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV measured with the ALICE detector at the LHC

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

    Author : Madeleine Petersson Sjögren; [2018]
    Keywords : LHC ALICE Heavy-ion physics particle physics heavy-flavor; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Heavy-flavor hadrons, containing charm and bottom quarks, serve as a tool available for the characterization of the hot and dense strongly interacting Quark Gluon Plasma state of matter, produced in heavy-ion collisions. As a benchmark for heavy-ion collision measurements, proton-proton collisions are also studied. READ MORE

  5. 24. Monte Carlo production of proton-proton collision events using the ATLAS@Home framework

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

    Author : Dimitrios Sidiropoulos Kontos; [2018]
    Keywords : Particle; Physics; ATLAS; ATLAS@Home; framework; Volunteer; Computing; Monte; Carlo; BOINC; proton; collider; LHC; event; virtual; machine; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The ATLAS@Home project is a volunteer computing project, part of the larger LHC@Home project, aimed at using the computational power of personal computers from volunteers around the globe, who are interested in helping with the particle physics research taking place at the ATLAS experiment at LHC. Up this point it runs only ATLAS detector simulation tasks. READ MORE

  6. 25. Trigger Algorithms and Monte Carlo Event Generation for Dijet Searches in ATLAS and Beyond

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

    Author : Sebastian Murk; [2017]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : So far, the Standard Model (SM) has been very successful in describing non-gravitational interactions of fundamental particles. However, many of its theoretical and experimental shortcomings remain unresolved. READ MORE
