Tijdens dit project zullen we botsingen van de LHC analyseren met twee Higgs deeltjes in de eindtoestand. We zullen simulaties van botsingen genereren en bepalen of we dit signaal met de toekomstige data van ATLAS kunnen isoleren van de achtergrond. | Tijdens dit project zullen we botsingen van de LHC analyseren met twee Higgs deeltjes in de eindtoestand.

| + | ''' Research description: ''' | ||
| + | HiSPARC (http://www.hisparc.nl/) is a network that consists of more than 100 | ||
| + | cosmic ray detection stations in NL, UK and DK. Aim is to measure direction and energy | ||
| + | of (very) high energy cosmic particles. Stations are operated by scientists and high-school students. | ||
| + | Each detection stations submits data to Nikhef via internet. Monitoring and remote | ||
| + | control runs over a VPN/VNC. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Project: - An event generator needs to be designed that generates 'real' data | ||
| + | - A number of real time data analysis/data selection procedures need | ||
| + | to be developed to optimise data acquisition. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Tools: - Test station at Nikhef | ||
| + | - Database containing more than 8 years of data | ||
