The production of a Z boson, decaying into two leptons and produced in association with one or more b jets, is studied using proton-proton collisions delivered
This dissertation presents a measurement of the W+b-jets (pp --> W+bb+X) production cross-section in proton--proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 T
The Black Book of Quantum Chromodynamics is an in-depth introduction to the particle physics of current and future experiments at particle accelerators. The boo
This thesis contains new research in both experimental and theoretical particle physics, making important contributions in each. Two analyses of collision data
