   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

   Author : Otto Lundberg; [2022]
   Keywords : climate change; Egyptian gardens; Persian gardens; Alhambra; urban heat island; desert gardens;

   Abstract : In this day and age we are faced with urban cores getting hotter, with the main drivers being climate change and the urban heat island effect. This gets even more complicated as the parts of Europe that have the largest need too cool down, i.e. the south, has the least amount of space available for interventions in the form of green space.

6. 25. Study of the doubly charged Higgs boson single production using lepton parton distribution functions with the ATLAS detector

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

   Author : Daniel Magdalinski; [2022]
   Keywords : doubly charged Higgs boson; ATLAS; lepton parton distribution function; same-sign; dilepton; beyond standard model; LHC; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Searches for the doubly charged Higgs(H±±) aim to find evidence for models that could explain the origin of neutrino masses. Earlier searches at the LHC have used different production processes for the H±±, with the recent development of lepton parton distribution functions new leptonic production processes are able to be studied.
