Search for new physics in single-top-quark production with the ATLAS detector at the LHC
2018
Esta tesis presenta dos análisis dedicados a la búsqueda de nueva física en eventos de producción de quarks top únicos con datos recopilados por el detector ATLAS en el LHC. A pesar de su gran éxito, se cree que debe haber una teoría más general que subyace al Modelo Estándar de física de partículas que arroge luz a preguntas sin respuesta, como la asimetría de materia-antimateria del universo o la existencia de la Materia Oscura. Esta tesis cubre dos enfoques diferentes para abordar los dos temas anteriores. El objetivo del primer análisis es explorar la estructura del vértice Wtb a través de la medición de asimetrías angulares relacionadas con los observables de polarización del bosón W q…
Measurement of top-quark polarisation observables and a search for dark matter in single-top-quark production with the ATLAS detector at the LHC
2022
Esta tesis presenta dos análisis diferentes basados en los datos resultantes de colisiones protón-protón a una energía en el centro de masas de 13 TeV recolectados con el detector ATLAS del LHC, correspondientes a una luminosidad integrada de 139 fb$^{-1}$. El primer análisis presenta una medida de secciones eficaces diferenciales normalizadas del canal de producción de quarks top en solitario $t$-channel, donde el quark top se desintegra leptónicamente, como función de los tres ángulos de polarización del leptón para eventos con quarks top y quarks antitop tanto separadamente como de forma inclusiva. Estos observables son particularmente sensibles a efectos de nueva física en el vértice $t…
Neutrino physics from cosmological observables and oscillation experiments
2018
Aquesta tesi se centra en la física dels neutrins. En particular, se centra en l'estudi de les oscil·lacions de sabor, el paper dels neutrins relíquia en alguns escenaris cosmològics i la interacció entre aquests dos temes. Els neutrins es troben entre les partícules elementals més conegudes. Presenten comportaments interessants, com les seves oscil·lacions, i constitueixen un dels vincles entre les diferents àrees de la física. A través d'aquest document explotem la seva relació amb la cosmologia, amb especial èmfasi en l'Univers primerenc, encara que també parlem de projectes relacionats amb les últimes etapes de la història de l'Univers. En la primera part de la tesi presentem un ajustam…
Role of theN*(1535)resonance and theπ−p→KYamplitudes in the OZI forbiddenπN→ϕNreaction
2008
We study the $\ensuremath{\pi}N\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\phi}N$ reaction close to the $\ensuremath{\phi}N$ threshold within the chiral unitary approach, by combining the ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}^{+}{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{\ensuremath{-}},{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}^{0}{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{0}$, and ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}^{0}\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ amplitudes with the coupling of \ensuremath{\phi} to the $K$ components of the final states of these reactions via quantum loops. We obtain good agreement with experiment when the dominant ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{…
Charged charmonium molecules
2010
We make use of a self-consistent quark-model based study of four-quark charmonium-like states to interpret recent charmonium experimental data. We conclude that there exists a ${D}^{*}{\overline{D}}^{*}$ meson-meson molecule with quantum numbers $({I}^{G}){J}^{PC}=({1}^{\ensuremath{-}}){2}^{++}$. Our study confirms the presence of charged charmonium-like resonances on the excited charmonium spectrum. We find support from recent experimental data by the Belle Collaboration [R. Mizuk et al. (Belle Collaboration), Phys. Rev. D 78, 072004 (2008)]. Confirmation of the experimental data by the Belle Collaboration and the determination of the quantum numbers of the new structures would help in dis…
High-statistics study of f0(1500) decay into π0π0
1995
Abstract A partial-wave analysis of the reaction p p →π 0 π 0 π 0 has been performed using a high-quality high-statistics data set of 712 000 events. In addition to the f0(975) and f0(1300), the scalar resonance with mass m = (1500 ± 15) MeV and width Γ = (120 ± 25) MeV is necessary to describe the data.
Summary of Trap Properties
2009
Three-dimensional confinement of charged particles requires a potential energy minimum at some region in space, in order that the corresponding force is directed toward that region in all three dimensions. In general, the dependence of the magnitude of this force on the coordinates can have an arbitrary form; however, it is convenient to have a binding force that is harmonic, since this simplifies the analytical description of the particle motion.
Experimental investigations of backward transition radiation characteristics in extreme ultraviolet region
2011
ABSTRACT This report summarizes the results of an experiment dedicated to the observation of backward transition radia-tion in the EUV spectral region. This radiation was ge nerated by an 855MeV electron beam at a molybdenumtarget. The radiation characteristics in the EUV region are compared to those in the optical region. It wasshown that the radiation measured in the EUV region was more intense than theoretically predicted. As aresult the EUV radiation yield seems to be suci ent for standard beam prole diagnostics.Keywords: EUV, Transition radiation, Beam diagnostics 1. INTRODUCTION Transverse prole diagnostics in mo dern electron linear accelerators as F ELs or injector linacs is mainl…
Regge phenomenology in π0 and η photoproduction
2017
The $\ensuremath{\gamma}N\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}N$ and $\ensuremath{\gamma}N\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\eta}N$ reactions at photon beam energies above 4 GeV are investigated within Regge models. The models include $t$-channel exchanges of vector ($\ensuremath{\rho}$ and $\ensuremath{\omega}$) and axial-vector (${b}_{1}$ and ${h}_{1}$) mesons. Moreover, Regge cuts of $\ensuremath{\rho}\mathbb{P},\phantom{\rule{0.28em}{0ex}}\ensuremath{\rho}{f}_{2},\phantom{\rule{0.28em}{0ex}}\ensuremath{\omega}\mathbb{P}$, and $\ensuremath{\omega}{f}_{2}$ are investigated. A good description of differential cross sections and polarization observables at photon beam energies fr…
Future Aspects of Positron Spectroscopy
1987
In the first week of this conference experimentalists made us familiar with the features of the positron peaks observed in the collision of very heavy ions with atoms. We learned that these peaks are not understandable in terms of known positron production mechanisms like monoenergetic pair decay of excited nuclear levels or the proposed spontaneous positron production in superheavy atoms. In addition, theorists told us that, at present, also the interpretation that the positron peak structures originate from the decay of a previously not observed neutral particle is in contradiction to well-known experimental facts. Some of you may have, in addition, become confused by the results of the t…
