Quark Shapes Of Most Modern Parton Distribution Functions, Hasan Oğul
Quark Shapes Of Most Modern Parton Distribution Functions, Hasan Oğul
Turkish Journal of Physics
Parton distribution functions (PDFs) describe the internal structure of the proton and are necessary inputs to almost all theory predictions of hadron colliders. One way to do a precise measurement of a PDF is to measure the lepton charge asymmetry of W boson where u$\bar{d}\to W^{+}$ and $d\bar{u}\to W^{-}$. Therefore, u, d, $\bar{u}$, and $\bar{d}$ quark shapes of the most modern PDF models (NNPDF3.1, NNPDF3.0, CT14, MMHT2014, and HERAPDF2.0) are inspected using the APFEL online cluster in this paper. The ratio of $d$ to $u$ is further investigated since the charge asymmetry is sensitive to the value of $d$ over …
Identification Of The Hadronic Interaction Layer In A Highly Granular Calorimeter By Multivariate Techniques, Burak Bi̇lki̇
Identification Of The Hadronic Interaction Layer In A Highly Granular Calorimeter By Multivariate Techniques, Burak Bi̇lki̇
Turkish Journal of Physics
Calorimetry in future and upgrade collider detectors has a clear overall trend towards high granularity, both laterally and longitudinally. This trend is a requirement for the full exploitation of particle flow algorithms, which reconstruct individual particles using the subdetector that provides the best resolution for this specific particle. The increased level of detail in the event topologies due to higher segmentation of the calorimeter provides additional handles for several calorimetric measurements, such as the identification of the hadronic interaction layer, which is not possible for calorimeters with traditional tower geometry. Here, the power of using multivariate statistical techniques in the …
