Flavour Tagging in a Low-pT Trigger-Unbiased Dataset: Finally Noticing Pile-up
Mario Alves Cardoso

Thèse, 138 (2026)

This thesis presents a novel methodology within the ATLAS experiment that exploits the large number of recorded untriggered pp interactions, commonly referred to as pile-up, to construct a dedicated low-pT dataset. By treating each additional inelastic collision in a recorded bunch…

Reconstruction Of Neutrinos And Decay Chains Of Heavy Hadrons Using Probabilistic Generative Models And Graph-Based Models
Tomke Schroeer

Thèse (2026)

The study of the Standard Model of Particle Physics (SM) requires the analysis of enormous amounts of data that has been measured by particle detectors. It is therefore essential to build tools that can handle such data efficiently. An important step in the data processing is the reconstruction of…

Optimal Transport Applications in High-Energy Physics
Malte Algren

Thèse, 229 (2026)

The Standard Model of particle physics is the most successful theory describing the fundamental properties of matter that govern the universe. At the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, these properties are studied by colliding high energetic particles together, which has led to significant discoveries, …

High-Field and Angular Dependence Study of the Critical Current Surface in Modern REBCO Coated Conductors
Romain Babouche, Damien Zurmuehle, T. Okada, Y. Tsuchiya, S. Awaji and Carmine Senatore

IEEE transactions on applied superconductivity 36 3, 6600206, 1-6 (2026)

In the frame of a collaboration between the University of Geneva and Tohoku University, the dependence of the critical current (Ic) on magnetic field orientation (θ), intensity (B) and temperature (T) was characterized on three commercial REBCO tapes from Faraday Factory/SuperOx, SuperPower and…
