  1. 16. Search for Higgs-like bosons through optimization of top-quark modelling

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

    Author : Rafael Antonio Lopez; [2021]
    Keywords : ttbar; top quark modelling; BSM; 2HDM S; Higgs-like bosons; ATLAS; HWW; XSh; top estimation; top remodelling; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Accurate estimations of background processes associated with top-quarks are vital to studies concerned with finding new physics at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)at CERN. Search for Higgs-like bosons in the ATLAS experiment at LHC was performed by optimising the use of b-jet tagging algorithms and improving on tt backgroundmodelling. READ MORE

  2. 17. Understanding Rt using two-particle correlations by simulating proton-proton collisions in a Monte-Carlo model

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

    Author : Johan Leygonie; [2021]
    Keywords : QGP; Quark-Gluon-Plasma; Rt; Particle Physics; Proton-proton Collisions; Pythia; Monte-Carlo Model; Bachelor s Thesis; Heavy-ion Collisions; ALICE; CERN; Relative Transverse Activity; Jets; Two-Particles Correlations; Quantum Physics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The observable Rt is investigated in the Monte Carlo Model Pythia in order to better understand results from experimental data obtained in the ALICE detector at CERN. The purpose is to reproduce the experiment in a simulation and use the features proposed by Pythia to dig into the unexpected outcomes. READ MORE

  3. 18. Exploring a Two Higgs Doublet Model with a U(1) Family Symmetry and a Complex Singlet

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Michal Nowak; [2021]
    Keywords : Two Higgs Doublet Model; Complex Singlet Extension; Phenomenology; Physics Beyond the Standard Model; Branco-Grimus-Lavoura Model; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this project a two Higgs doublet model with a complex singlet and an extra family symmetry providing a mechanism for suppression of flavor changing neutral currents is explored. The goal is to investigate the phenomenological consistency of the model using a custom software framework. READ MORE

  4. 19. Di-Higgs Production in the Standard Model and Beyond

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Hanna Brännström; [2021]
    Keywords : ATLAS; CERN; Higgs; partikelfysik; di-Higgs;

    Abstract : This thesis examines how the kinetic properties of pair-produced Higgs bosons depend on whether the process is mediated by particles in the Standard Model or a simplified supersymmetric model. The analysis is based on simulated data made using MadGraph. READ MORE

  5. 20. Event Geometry and Anisotropic Flow in Proton-Proton Collisions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Johannes Holst; [2021]
    Keywords : high energy physics; particle physics; proton; collision; quark-gluon plasma; flow; anisotropy; anisotropic flow; elliptic flow; initial state; geometry; eccentricity; gaussian; cms; alice; lhc; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : We seek to better understand the relationship between an anisotropic distribution of partons in the initial state of pp-collisions and the amount of elliptic flow. We do this through the implementation of a new model that is based in generating positions for multiparton interactions from the uneven volume created by the overlap of two Gaussians. READ MORE
