1. WIMP searches in an Effective Field Theory Framework from XENON1T to XENONnT
Sammanfattning : Observations from cosmology and astronomy suggest that most of the matter in the Universe is comprised of dark matter. In this thesis the evidence for dark matter and the possible candidates are explored, focusing on the Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) hypothesis. LÄS MER
2. Instrumentation for silicon tracking at the HL-LHC
Sammanfattning : In 2027 the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN will enter a high luminosity phase, deliver- ing 3000 fb 1 over the course of ten years. The High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) will increase the instantaneous luminosity delivered by a factor of 5 compared to the current operation pe- riod. LÄS MER
3. Silicon Tracking and a Search for Long-lived Particles
Sammanfattning : The ATLAS Detector, below the surface of the Swiss-French border, measures the remnants of high-energy proton-proton collisions, accelerated by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Recently the LHC paused operations, having delivered an integrated luminosity corresponding to 150 fb−1 of data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. LÄS MER
4. Design of the HIBEAM/NNBAR Calorimeter and Upgrades to the ATLAS Tile Calorimeter Readout Electronics
Sammanfattning : The Standard Model has been greatly successful in predicting the laws that govern our universe. Yet there are still seemingly missing pieces to the model. LÄS MER
5. FPGA-based Instrumentation for Advanced Physics Experiments
Sammanfattning : Modern physical experiments often demand advanced instrumentation based on advances in technology. This work describes four instrumentation physics projects that are based on modern, high-capacity Field-Programmable Gate Arrays, making use of their versatility, programmability, high bandwidth communication interfaces and signal processing capabilities.
