  1. 16. Study of the Loss of Information from the Modified Mass-Drop Tagger in PYTHIA 8 for Z to qqbar

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Markus Ernstsson; [2017]
    Keywords : PYTHIA; Jet; mMDT; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the information loss from the modified Mass-Drop tagging of a Z to qqbar jet is studied for a pp collision at LHC centre-of-mass energies in PYTHIA 8 using FastJet 3. The jet created by the Z has minimum transverse momentum of 200 GeV. READ MORE

  3. 17. Elliptic Flow Studies using Event Shape Engineering in Pb-Pb Collisions at ALICE

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

    Author : Rickard Lydahl; [2017]
    Keywords : Elliptic Flow; ALICE; Event Shape Engineering; Pb-Pb; lead-lead; Particle physics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Inn ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions, QCD matter undergoes a phase transition to a strongly interacting Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) where quarks and gluons are deconfined. The expansion of this plasma is well described by ideal hydrodynamics, suggesting that it behaves like a perfect, reversible, liquid. READ MORE

  4. 18. 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

  5. 19. Elliptic flow of π, K, p and φ in Pb-Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider

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

    Author : Maria Mårtenson; [2016]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Data extracted from Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN = 2.76 TeV measured with the ALICE detector is used for analyzing the azimuthal anisotropic expansion in momentum space at different collision centralities for identified particles. The results are obtained with the event-plane method and an invariant mass analysis. READ MORE

  6. 20. Blast-Wave Model Studies in Pb-Pb Collisions at LHC

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

    Author : Isabell Bågenholm; [2016]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In high-energy heavy-ion collisions, a state of matter called quark-gluon plasma (QGP) can be created. The production of particles from the QGP can be described by different models, one of these is the blast-wave model. The blast-wave model describes the production of particles from the QGP, not from jets. READ MORE
