Study of a Light Standard Model Higgs Boson in the t¯tH0 Channel with ATLAS at LHC and Decay-Mode Independent Searches for Neutral Higgs Bosons with OPAL at LEP
(2004)
The production of a light Standard Model Higgs boson in association with a top-quark pair at the LHC is studied in a simulation of the ATLAS detector. The Higgs boson is assumed to decay into bb, and the top-quark pair to ......
Development of high speed integrated circuit for very high resolution timing measurements
(2009-12-07)
A multi-channel high-precision low-power time-to-digital converter application specific integrated circuit for high energy physics applications has been designed and implemented in a 130 nm CMOS process. To reach a target ...
Development of a Benchmark Parameter Scan for Higgs Bosons in the NMSSM Model and a Study of the Sensitivity for H->AA->4τ in Vector Boson Fusion with the ATLAS Detector
(2008)
An evaluation of the discovery potential for NMSSM Higgs bosons of the ATLAS experiment at the LHC is presented. For this purpose, seven two-dimensional benchmark planes in the six-dimensional parameter space of the ...
Identification of hadronic τ decays using the τ lepton flight path and reconstruction and identification of jets with a low transverse energy at intermediate luminosities with an application to the search for the Higgs boson in vector boson fusion with the ATLAS experiment at the LHC
(2010-07-01)
Three studies of different components of the object reconstruction with the ATLAS experiment using simulated data are presented. In each study, a method for the improvement of the reconstruction is developed and the ...
Sensitivity of the ATLAS experiment in pp-collisions at a centre of mass energy of 14TeV at the LHC to a Higgs boson with large decay-width to invisible final states
(2012-01-20)
So far experimentally not ruled out, the stealthy Higgs scenario proposes a hidden scalar sector, to which only the Higgs has non-vanishing and possibly large couplings. Due to decays into the scalars the Higgs acquires a ...
Tau lepton reconstruction with energy flow and the search for R-parity violating supersymmetry at the ATLAS experiment
(2012-08-31)
The ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is measuring proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s=7 TeV since 2010, an energy never reached before in collider experiments. A wide variety of ...
Measurement of the Weak Mixing Angle and the Spin of the Gluon from Angular Distributions in the Reaction pp → Z/γ* + X → μ+μ- + X with ATLAS
(2013-11-15)
The measurement of the effective weak mixing angle with the ATLAS experiment at the LHC is presented. It is extracted from the forward--backward asymmetry in the polar angle distribution of the muons originating from $Z$ ...
A search for stable massive particles carrying electric charges in the range of 2e to 6e in proton-proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC
(2013-09-02)
This dissertation presents a search for long-lived, multi-charged particles using the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Motivation for this search arose from an unexploited search regime at ATLAS of stable massive particles with ...
Measurement of the transverse momentum distribution of Z bosons in proton-proton collisions at √s = 7TeV using the ATLAS detector
(2013-09-25)
Z boson production at the LHC presents a good opportunity to test Standard Model predictions. This thesis reports the measurement of the Z boson transverse momentum distribution in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s)=7TeV, ...
Observation of W → τντ Decays with the ATLAS Experiment
(2011-05-04)
Physics studies of processes with t leptons in the final state, while challenging at hadron colliders, are of great importance at the LHC. The τ leptons provide important signatures in searches for the Higgs boson as well ......
