  1. 1. Studies of a neutral Higgs boson produced in gluon-gluon fusion and vector boson fusion

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Författare :Max Isacson; [2014]
    Nyckelord :neutral; higgs; boson; high energy physics; hep; atlas; lhc; simulation; gluon fusion; vector boson fusion; mechanism;

    Sammanfattning : This paper presents an outline of the generation of mass for the massive Standard Model particles (fermions, $W^\pm$, $Z^0$) through electroweak symmetry breaking via the Higgs mechanism, and how the Higgs boson emerges from this framework. A Monte Carlo study was done on the decay $H\rightarrow\tau\tau$, with one leptonically and one hadronically decaying tau, with two different production channels for the $H$, gluon-gluon fusion (gg) and vector boson fusion (VBF), at $\sqrt s = 7\tev$ with a Higgs mass $m_H = 120\gev$.

  3. 2. Comparison of dilepton events in simulation and $pp$ collision data at $\sqrt s = 8\tev$ gathered by the ATLAS detector at the LHC

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Författare :Max Isacson; [2014]
    Nyckelord :charged; higgs; boson; high energy physics; hep; monte carlo; collision data; dilepton; control region; atlas; lhc; leptons;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents the results of a comparison between collision data and simulations based on Monte Carlo methods. The experimental dataset consists of $20.3\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt s = 8\tev$ collected during 2012 by the ATLAS experiment located at the Large Hadron Collider.
