Open Projects

Overview of possible Master and Ph.D. theses

Measurements with Gauge Bosons (Z/W and &gamma)

  • Measurement of differential cross sections of gauge boson production
  • Measurement of the Boson pt spectrum is a test of soft gluon as well as mini-jet resummation and challenges the theory predictions
  • With the TMD approach (using Transverse Momentum Dependent parton density functions) the measurements are expected to be better described. Theoretical development is needed

Measurements with the very first LHC run3 data

  • Measurement of differential cross sections of inclusive and multi-jet production
  • Measurement of differential cross sections of Z+jet production

Longer term projects

  • Comparison of differential cross sections of DY and Higgs production
  • Measurement of UE in gluon induced processes like Higgs

All projects contain experimental tasks, but also theoretical and phenomenological issues. There s a possibility to spend some time on Monte Carlo related issues, and Monte Carlo development. If you are interested, please contact Katarzyna Wichmann
