  1. 1. Misalignment effects on the physics performance of the inner tracker upgrade at the ALICE experiment

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

    Författare :Jesper Karlsson Gumprecht; [2024]
    Nyckelord :ALICE; ITS; ITS2; ITS3; O2; O2Physics; Distortion; Misalignment; Alignment; Realignment; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the physics performance of an approved inner tracker upgrade of the ALICE experiment involving a novel and ultra-thin silicon detector with a cylindrical geometry. During the thesis work, a method was developed in simulations to induce distortions to the detector’s geometry, and the resulting loss in physics performance was evaluated. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Glauber Monte Carlo for proton-proton and virtual-photon-proton collisions

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Oscar Sepp; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : In high energy physics, we want to probe the inner structures and behaviours of the particles that are the building blocks of our universe. This is often done by colliding nuclei together. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Probing Charm Production with Three-Particle Correlations in pp Collisions

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

    Författare :Kim Haupt; [2023]
    Nyckelord :pp collisions; charm production; three-particle correlation; Pythia; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to investigate possible correlations between charm production and baryon production in proton-proton collisions through three-particle correlations. The question attempted to be answered is where, for a given charmed baryon, the balancing anti-charm particle and balancing anti-baryon are located. LÄS MER

  4. 4. An Open-Source Autoencoder Compression Tool for High Energy Physics

    Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Axel Gallén; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Physics; Particle Physics; Analysis; Machine Learning; Neural Networks; Autoencoders; Data Compression; Lossy Compression; Baler; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : A common problem across scientific fields and industries is data storage. This thesis presents an open-source lossy data compression tool with its foundation in Machine Learning - Baler. Baler has been used to compress High Energy Physics (HEP) data, and initial compression tests on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) toy data have been performed. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Event categorisation and Machine-learning Techniques in Searches for Higgs Boson Pairs in the ATLAS Experiment at the LHC

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Författare :Milads Emadi; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Particle Physics; ATLAS; BDT; Boosted Decision Tree; Decision Tree; Optimization; Machine Learning; Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the pair production of Higgs bosons (di-Higgs events) at the ATLAS experiment in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), focusing on the channel where one Higgs boson decays into two bottom quarks and the other decays into two tau leptons. The main objective was to determine whether introducing a split in the invariant mass of the decay products from the two Higgs bosons (the di-Higgs mass) and using this as an analysis variable improves the sensitivity of the Boosted Decision Tree (BDT) machine learning algorithm to the di-Higgs signal.
