The Standard Model of particle physics describes the fundamental particles and their interactions in a reasonable way, but it is not considered to be a complete theory. Possible interesting extensions are Left-Right Symmetric Models, which introduce additional particles. The Tevatron proton-antiproton collider at Fermilab (near Chicago/USA) is perfectly suited to search for the production and decay of this kind of new particles.

Produktbeschreibung
The Standard Model of particle physics describes the fundamental particles and their interactions in a reasonable way, but it is not considered to be a complete theory. Possible interesting extensions are Left-Right Symmetric Models, which introduce additional particles. The Tevatron proton-antiproton collider at Fermilab (near Chicago/USA) is perfectly suited to search for the production and decay of this kind of new particles. The author Carsten Magaß provides a comprehensive discussion of various different methods required for collider data analysis, that are applied to the search for new heavy charged gauge bosons. First, the current theoretical picture of nature is reviewed, followed by an outline of the experimental setup. Main focus is given to the description of the full analysis chain, from reconstructed objects and corrections to the final statistical interpretation of the results. The book addresses not only students as well as advanced physicists starting with data analysis at hadron colliders, but also readers interested in general physics and experimental techniques due to the self-contained illustration.

Autorenporträt
Carsten Magaß (born 1977) studied physics at Aachen University from 1998 to 2004. In 2004 he was granted a 3-year scholarship by the German Research Foundation. He spent one year at Fermilab near Chicago, and finished his PhD thesis at Aachen University in 2007. Currently he is working as a research assistant at Bonn University.
