  1. 1. Ω- Yields in pp Events at √s = 13 TeV Using the ALICE Detector

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

    Author : Henrik Pålsson; [2021]
    Keywords : LHC; ALICE; strangeness enhancement; charged multiplicity; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Ω- is a baryon which is rarely produced in proton collisions. The theoretical models for how these Ω- appear are yet not fully developed. Previous studies have shown that the experimental data did not agree with the models since more Ω- particles appeared in the proton collisions than expected. READ MORE

  2. 2. Studies of Possible QGP Estimators in proton-proton Collisions

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

    Author : Anna Önnerstad; [2019]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis presents studies of three different Quark-Gluon Plasma estimators in proton-proton collisions using what is currently believed to be quark-gluon plasma observables; radial flow, elliptic flow and strangeness enhancement. The three tested estimators were Transverse Spherocity, an altered version of Transverse Spherocity where all p_T was put to one, and a newly developed estimator called Mid-Forward. READ MORE

  3. 3. Xi Production in pp Collisions at Different Multiplicity and Spherocity

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

    Author : Martin Angelsmark; [2019]
    Keywords : Particle Physics Quark Gluon Plasma ALICE LHC CERN Xi Baryon Transverse Spherocity Multiplicity; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The protons and neutrons that make up the atoms in our Universe are part of a larger group of particles called hadrons. Hadrons have an inner structure consisting of the elementary particles called quarks. The interaction of the quarks is described by the quantum field theory quantum chromodynamics. READ MORE

  4. 4. Omega Baryon Production as a Function of Multiplicity in Proton-Proton Collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV

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

    Author : Lisa Vergara Urrutia; [2019]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis the production of the $\Omega^-$ and $\Omega^+$ baryons, in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV, is analyzed as a function of charged-particle multiplicity. The events analyzed were recorded by the ALICE detector, at the LHC. READ MORE

  5. 5. Production of φ Mesons as a Function of Multiplicity & Spherocity

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

    Author : Adrian Nassirpour; [2017]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The purpose of this project is to further investigate whether the collective behavior observed in high energy proton-proton (p-p) collision can be attributed to the formation of Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). This is done by measuring the production rate of the strange φ meson in high multiplicity p-p collisions at √sNN = 13 TeV. READ MORE
