Colour Reconnection and Weak Showers
Popular Abstract in Danish Ved CERN (Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire) accelerer man protoner og bly-ioner op til næsten lysets hastighed, for derefter at kollidere dem med hinanden. Målet med dette er at forstå, hvordan de mindste ting i universet er bygget op, og hvordan de interagerer. Alle tidligere eksperimentelle data er kombineret til en enkelt teori, kendt som StandardModellen This thesis consider the improvement of the simulation tools used to describe high energy particle collisions. These simulation programs are normally referred to as event generators. The emphasis is on two specific parts of the event generation: the introduction of radiation of weak bosons associated with the collision and a new model for colour reconnection. Each collision contains significant
