(2011-08-08)The subject of this thesis is an extension of a two-dimensional, axisymmetric, Timoshenko-beam finite-element rotordynamic code to include a three-dimensional non-axisymmetric solid-element casing model. Axisymmetric beams ...
-
The high luminosity upgrade to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), means a significant increase in data, which the existing muon trigger system’s bandwidth is inadequate to process. The solution for enabling the muon system ...
-
In light of the recent major upgrades to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in the second long shutdown, the intense experimentation of Run 3 will follow in the coming years. At an energy level of approximately 13.6 ...
-
(2013-02-01)In searches for new fundamental particles in high energy particle collisions, the ability for a detector to select collisions that might signify the presence of such particles is one of the top priorities. Equally important ...
-
(2015-12-09)Higher wheat prices, performance potential of hybrids and the availability of new next generation sequencing have sparked a renewed interest in the development of hybrid wheat. Floral characteristics and heterosis are an ...
-
The Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) is a gas based detector used to detect charged particles in high-energy physics applications. It amplifies signals related to particle interaction within a detector and provides high gas ...
-
Proton-proton collisions in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) produce a number of particles and it takes a large detector to make precision measurements to identify all of them. The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) is one of the ...
-
The new operational conditions associated with the high luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN requires an upgrade of the muon system in the forward region of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector. ...
-
(2019-07-03)The standard model (SM) of particle physics is to date the most accurate description of fundamental particles and the interactions between them. While there are strong motivations for physics beyond the SM, experimental ...
-
(2015-01-22)The Standard Model (SM) describes the known fundamental particles and their interactions due to the electromagnetic, weak, and strong forces through vector boson exchange. Although the SM has had major success in predicting ...
-
(2016-08-09)The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics is a theory that summarizes our current knowledge about the most fundamental constituents of matter and interactions between them. The Higgs boson is a central part of the SM as ...
-
(2013-02-28)In this dissertation results are presented from a search for the pair production of heavy colored particles (gluinos, squarks) in R-parity conserving supersymmetric models, in which the lightest supersymmetric particle is ...
-
(2018-04-02)The Higgs boson discovery was announced on July 4th, 2012. It was measured to have a mass of 125.7 ± 0.3 (stat) ± 0.3 (syst) GeV and since then boson has been seen in many decay paths, including the H→γγ, H→ZZ→4l, H→τ τ, ...
-
(2013-09-28)The Optical Trigger Mother Board (OTMB) and mezzanine card is part of the upgrade of the muon Level-1 trigger system of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). 72 of the new boards ...
-
(2013-05-02)Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) is one of the flagship experiments in particle physics operating at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). CMS was built to search for signatures of Higgs bosons, supersymmetry, and other new phenomena. ...
