The first LHC pp collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 0.9 and 2.36 TeV were recorded by
the CMS detector in December 2009. The trajectories of charged particles produced in the …

To investigate the fundamental nature of matter and its interactions, particles are accelerated
to very high energies and collided inside detectors, producing a multitude of other particles …

The CMS experiment [1], together with the ATLAS experiment [2], represents the current
program on the Energy Frontier at the Large Hadron Collider [3] at CERN in Geneva …

The discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 by the CMS and ATLAS collaborations marked the
start of the exploration of the Higgs sector of particle physics. This thesis explores one of …

A search is performed for pair produced supersymmetric top (stop) quarks in hadronic and
multi-leptonic final states. The search uses a sample of proton-proton collision data at√ s …

The standard model (SM) of electroweak and strong interactions was formulated by mid-
1970s. It has proven to be an extraordinarily successful theory, which has been consistently …

The top quark was observed at the Tevatron collider in 1995 [1, 2]. The existence of top
quarks was established by measuring their production in pairs with their antiquarks (tt) …
