Rehnisch, Laura. "Search for singly produced vector-like down-type quarks in single-lepton final states with ATLAS." Doctoral thesis, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Fakultät, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.18452/17493.
Full textA search for vector-like and excited down-type (Q = 1/3) quarks with the ATLAS detector is presented in this thesis. The existence of these quarks is predicted by various models beyond the Standard Model, motivated by some limitations of that theory. Quarks from two specific models are searched for in single production mode, as this is predicted to yield higher cross-sections than pair production in the investigated mass range. The search focuses on decays of the heavy quarks to a W boson and a top quark, the latter of which subsequently decays almost exclusively into another W boson and a bottom quark. Requiring one of the two W bosons to decay leptonically leads to final states containing exactly one lepton (electron or muon in this case), several jets, one of which can be identified as originating from a bottom quark, and some amount of missing energy in the transverse plane stemming from the neutrino of the leptonic W decay. The reconstructed mass of the heavy quark is used to discriminate between signal and background. This search was performed on 20.3 inverse femtobarns of proton-proton collision data collected at the Large Hadron Collider in the year 2012 with a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. No significant excess of the data over the background could be observed and therefore exclusion limits were set on model parameters. The search presented here makes use of the boosted event topology that is prominent in the explored range of signal masses, allowing it to by far exceed the exclusion bounds obtained in the preceding search for the excited quark model on the 2011 data set, and producing results that are comparable to those from a recent search performed with the CMS detector on the 2012 data set. Additionally, it is the first search in the single production mode for that specific vector-like quark model.

Full textThis thesis presents a search for singly produced vector-like T quarks with charge +2/3 or Y quarks with charge -4/3. These exotic particles are predicted by several beyond-the-standard-model theories which try to shed light on the mechanism of electro-weak symmetry breaking, thus addressing the Naturalness Problem. The analysis is performed on a proton-proton collision data set with an integrated luminosity of 36.1 inverse fb at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded in 2015 and 2016 by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The focus is on leptonically decaying W bosons from Y/T to Wb decays of the heavy quarks and the event selection requires a jet leading in transverse momentum and being b-tagged, exactly one lepton, a forward jet as well as missing transverse energy beside several isolation requirements. No significant deviation from the expected Standard Model background is observed. Therefore, upper limits on the coupling strength and mixing angle between third generation Standard Model quarks and a T from a singlet model as well as a Y from a (B,Y) doublet or a (T,B,Y) triplet model are computed using the CLs method. This search represents the first analysis in which the interference effects with the Standard Model background are taken into account. The smallest upper limits are found to be |sin(theta_L)|= 0.18 for a T singlet for a mass of 800 GeV, |sin(theta_R)|= 0.17 in the (B,Y) doublet case at 800 GeV and |sin(theta_L)|= 0.16 for the (T,B,Y) triplet model. The observed limits on the mixing parameter |sin(theta_R)| are competitive with indirect bounds from electroweak precision observables in the mass range between about 800 GeV and 1250 GeV.

Full textA measurement of the total {\ttb} production cross section in the single lepton channel is presented. The cross section is extracted in a profile likelihood fit of templates constructed from a likelihood classifier using four kinematic variables. For a top quark of mass $m_t=172.5$ GeV, the measured cross section is $178.9 \pm 12$ pb. The measurement agrees within one-standard deviation with the latest theoretical predictions. The cross section measurement is repeated for seven other values of the top quark mass ranging from 140 GeV to 200 GeV to obtain the mass dependence of the experimental cross section. By comparing this with the mass dependence of different higher-order predictions, the top quark mass is extracted. This method allows the determination of two different theoretical mass parameters: the top quark mass in the on-shell scheme $m_t^{\mathrm{pole}}$ and in the $\overline{MS}$ scheme $\overline{m}_t(\overline{m}_t)$. The most precise measurement obtained is $m_t^{\mathrm{pole}} = 171.2\pm 4.5$ GeV, obtained when employing the most precise higher-order calculations in the $\overline{MS}$ scheme. This value agrees within one-standard deviation with the latest Tevatron average of the best top quark mass measurements.

Full textA search for an excited $b$ quark, $b^*$, in events containing a top quark and a $W$ boson is investigated. These $b^*$ are predicted to have some anomalous couplings to Standard Model bosons aiding the production in high energy proton-proton collisions. The search is aiming for events, where one of the two $W$ bosons decays into an electron or muon, while the other decays hadronically. With only one neutrino, the event can be kinematically fully reconstructed. This enables the use of the mass of the $b^*$ as the discriminant variable. The data source under investigation is the data taken by the ATLAS detector at the LHC accelerator in the years 2015 and 2016 at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt s = \SI{13}{\tera\electronvolt}$. The combined dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $\L_{int} = \SI{36.1}{\femto\barn^{-1}}$. The analysis targets high mass excited $b^*$ quarks, where the products of the hadronically decaying $W$ are contained within a large-radius jet. No significant excess over the expected background is observed and upper limits on the cross-section times branching ratio and coupling limits are derived. Assuming unit coupling, $b^*$ decaying into $Wt$ are excluded up to $m_{b^*,\mathrm{obs}}= \SI{2.5}{\tera\electronvolt}$, with an expected exclusion limit of $m_{b^*,\mathrm{exp}}= \SI{2.4}{\tera\electronvolt}$.

"Search for charged Higgs bosons decaying into top and bottom quarks with single-lepton final states using pp collisions collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector." Doctoral thesis, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.18452/19775.
Full textThis thesis presents a search for charged Higgs bosons produced in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, using 36.1 fb−1 of data collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC in 2015 and 2016. The existence of charged Higgs bosons is predicted by various theories Beyond the Standard Model and it is motivated by the inadequacy of the Standard Model to explain some observed experimental phenomena. The work focuses on charged Higgs bosons heavier than the top quark and decaying via H± → tb. The production in association with a top and a bottom quark (pp → tbH±) is investigated in the mass range between 200 and 2000 GeV. A final state containing one charged lepton and jets is considered. Multiple kinematic variables are combined using a boosted decision tree (BDT) in order to separate signal and background. The output of the BDT is used to perform a profile likelihood fit of the Monte Carlo predictions to the observed data. No significant excess of events above the expected Standard Model background is observed, therefore upper limits are set for the cross-section of the charged Higgs boson production times the branching fraction of its decay. Limits are also provided for the tanβ parameter of the MSSM, in the mhmod− and hMSSM benchmark scenarios. The work improves the reach of all previous searches, including for the first time masses ranging up to 2000 GeV.

Full textINTRODUCTION: Obesity during childhood and adolescence represents a global epidemic and consists in a prominent public health issue of increasing prevalence. Obesity is frequently associated with binge eating (BE) and genetic factors participate of its multifactorial etiology. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the leptin (LEP) and leptin receptor (LEPR) genes may modify the leptin expression and its signaling pathways and, consequently, alter appetite and satiety regulation, thus contributing to the etiopathogeny and maintenance of BE. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of polymorphisms rs7799039 (G > A) in the LEP gene and rs1137100 (A > G), rs1137101 (A > G) and rs8179183 (G > C) in the LEPR gene on BE in obese children and adolescents, besides characterize the population regarding to BE and examine the association of SNPs with cardiometabolic risk (CMR) and obesity. METHODS: Cross-sectional study in which 465 obese children and adolescents aged from 7 to 19 years were enrolled and had anthropometric and metabolic variables assessed. The CMR factors consisted of systemic hypertension, impaired fasting glucose, low HDL-cholesterol levels and hypertriglyceridemia. The BE was evaluated through the Binge Eating Scale (BES). To investigate the effect of SNPs on obesity risk, a control group of 135 eutrophic children and adolescents was enrolled. Genotyping was performed by real-time PCR and for the SNPs analysis, the dominant model was adopted. The linkage disequilibrium between SNPs was calculated and the haplotype frequencies were estimated. Comparisons between groups were performed stratified by gender and pubertal stage. To assess the risk magnitude for the SNPs on BE and obesity, logistic regression adjusted for confounding variables (age, Z-BMI and pubertal stage) was performed. RESULTS: Obese children and adolescents (12.5 ± 2.9 years, 52.7% girls) classified with BE showed greater adiposity and BE frequency was higher among females (OR= 2.146; 95% CI 1.461-3.152; p < 0.001). The observed frequency of A allele of rs7799039 was a higher in the obese group (OR= 1.530; 95% CI 1.022-2.292; p= 0.039) and the allele was associated with higher leptin and total cholesterol levels in girls and higher glucose levels in boys (p < 0.05). For the rs1137100 and rs1137101, the presence of the G allele among girls, conferred risk for hypertriglyceridemia (OR= 1.926; 95% CI 1.010-3.673; p= 0.047 and OR= 2.039; 95% CI 1.057-3.931; p= 0.033, respectively). The C allele of rs8179183 was associated, among girls, with a higher waist-to-height ratio and glucose levels and, among boys, with greater diastolic blood pressure percentile, glucose, total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol levels (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Polymorphisms were not associated with binge eating. BE was related with a more severe adiposity and an increased risk was observed among females. The SNP rs7799039 in the LEP gene contributed to the risk of obesity, whereas the rs1137100, rs1137101 and rs8179183 in LEPR gene were related to a worse cardiometabolic profile in obese children and adolescents
