This thesis presents a measurement of charm mixing and CP-violation parameters using D0 -> K0S pi+ pi- decays. These mixing parameters include the mass and decay-width differences of the mass eigenstates of the D0-D0bar system. A search for Charge-Parity v ...

Identification of hadronic tau lepton decays using a deep neural network

A new algorithm is presented to discriminate reconstructed hadronic decays of tau leptons (th) that originate from genuine tau leptons in the CMS detector against th candidates that originate from quark or gluon jets, electrons, or muons. The algorithm inp ...

Branching Fraction Measurements of the Rare B-s(0) -> phi mu(+)mu(-) and B-s(0)-> f(2)' (1525)mu(+)mu(-) Decays

A parametrized Kalman filter for fast track fitting at LHCb

Michel De Cian

We present an alternative implementation of the Kalman filter employed for track fitting within the LHCb experiment. It uses simple parametrizations for the extrapolation of particle trajectories in the field of the LHCb dipole magnet and for the effects o ...

The structure of nucleons is multidimensional and depends on the transverse momenta, spatial geometry, and polarization of the constituent partons. Such a structure can be studied using high-energy photons produced in ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions. ...
