  1. 1. Transverse Momentum Spectra in pp collisions (\sqrt{s}\) = 7 TeV and \(\sqrt{s}\) = 13 TeV in ALICE

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

    Author : Andreas Stokkeland; [2023]
    Keywords : Multiplicity; Multiplicity classes; Soft interactions; Quark Gluon Plasma; QGP; transverse momentum; p_T; Chi-squared; fits; fit functions; Levy; Lévy; Exponential; BGBW; Boltzmann-Gibbs blast-wave; Fermi-Dirac; Bose-Einstein; Boltzmann; pion; kaon; proton; transverse momentum spectra; p_T spectra; surface velocity; Minimum Bias; MB; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this project particle production as a function of transverse momentum (\(p_{\rm T}\)) in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy (\(\sqrt{s}\)) of 7 TeV and 13 TeV has been studied. The transverse momentum is interesting to study since it reflects momentum created in the collision (before the collision, all momentum is in the beam - going in a longitudinal direction) and therefore gives information on the collision dynamics.

  2. 2. Strain-induced nonlinear Hall effect in graphene systems

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Pedram Pakmehr; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to study the nonlinear electrical transport response of monolayer and bilayer graphene systems under the influence of different lattice deformations (strain). Broken inversion and rotation symmetries can generate a second-order transverse current response called the nonlinear Hall effect in the presence of time-reversal symmetry. READ MORE

  3. 3. Impact of loosening the requirement on missing transverse momentum in tt+DMsearches with the ATLAS experiment

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Alice Knutas; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Dark matter is required in the universe to explain certain phenomenona, like the dynamics of stars and temperature fluctuations of the cosmic microwave background. This thesis focuses on the production of dark matter in the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider, where the dark matter is detected through momentum conservation. READ MORE

  4. 4. Multiplicity and Classification of Final State Particles in Herwig7

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Carl Rosenkvist; [2021]
    Keywords : MPI; multiple parton interactions; multi-parton interactions; event generation; cluster; cluster classification; Herwig7; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this work we investigate the hard and soft interactions in the multiple parton interactions (MPI) simulation in Herwig7. The investigation covers how the number of soft and hard interactions in an event is linked to the multiplicity of final state particles. READ MORE

  5. 5. The impact of initial state radiation on jets from PbPb collisions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Hilmi Kycyku; [2021]
    Keywords : heavy-ion physics; QGP; quark-gluon plasma; kvark-gluon plasma; initial state radiation; jets; medium response; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the study of how initial state radiation impacts jets produced in pp and PbPb collisions, by investigating the transverse momentum spectra, the rapidity spectra and the differential jet shape. This is done for central collisions with nucleon-nucleom COM energy 2.76 TeV and 5.02 TeV. READ MORE
