The discovery reach for the ADD-type Large Extra Dimension (LED) scenario in the CMS Experiment at the LHC is presented by looking at the Monojet + Missing Energy signature, which arises as a result of a single graviton emission accompanied by a quark or gluon. Using Monte Carlo generated events, two LHC run scenarios were considered and compared namely a center-of-mass energy of 14 TeV and integrated luminosity of 100 pb−1, and a center-of-mass energy of 10 TeV and integrated luminosity of 200 pb−1. Details from extensive trigger studies are presented and offline selection techniques that optimize the signal excess over backgrounds are highlighted. As a result of this study, it is shown that the existing Tevatron limits on the ADD model can be improved through the implementation of this analysis in CMS Experiment with a factor of 3 using the the early LHC data.

Study of beam-halo events in photon production in the CMS experiment
Yıldırım, Eda; Güler, Ali Murat; Department of Physics (2011)
The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) Experiment operates at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) which is the highest energy particle accelerator in the world. CMS is a general purpose detector designed to investigate a wide range of physics, including the search for the Higgs boson. The measurement of photon production in the CMS experiment is crucial since it represents an irreducible background for many new physics searches, such as decay of Higgs to two photon, supersymmetry and extra-dimensions. The study of bea...
Quantum mechanics on curved hypersurfaces
Olpak, Mehmet Ali; Tekin, Bayram; Department of Physics (2010)
In this work, Schrödinger and Dirac equations will be examined in geometries that confine the particles to hypersurfaces. For this purpose, two methods will be considered. The first method is the thin layer method which relies on explicit use of geometrical relations and the squeezing of a certain coordinate of space (or spacetime). The second is Dirac’s quantization procedure involving the modification of canonical quantization making use of the geometrical constraints. For the Dirac equation, only the fir...
Dual Killing-Yano symmetry and multipole moments in electromagnetism and mechanics of continua
Baleanu, D; Dubovik, VM; Misicu, S (1999-10-01)
In this work we introduce the Killing-Yano symmetry on the phase space and we investigate the symplectic structure on the space of Killing-Yano tensors. We perform the detailed analyze of the n-dimensional flat space and the Riemaniann manifolds with constant scalar curvature. We investigate the form of some multipole tensors, which. arise in the expansion of a system of charges and currents, in terms of second-order Killing-Yano tensors in the phase space of classical mechanics. We find some relations betw...
Black hole collisions at the speed of light
Şentürk, Çetin; Karasu, Atalay; Department of Physics (2010)
The main purpose of this work is to study the collision of two black holes and the energy loss due to the gravitational waves emitted during this collision in the framework of general relativity. For this purpose we first study plane wave geometries and their collisions. More realistic collisions are the pp-wave collisions. As an analytic treatment of this problem, we investigate the head-on collision of two ultra-relativistic black holes. Treating the problem perturbatively, we extract the news function to...
Development of atomic force microscopy system and kelvin probe microscopy system for use in semiconductor nanocrystal characterization
Bostancı, Umut; Turan, Raşit; Department of Physics (2007)
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Kelvin Probe Microscopy (KPM) are two surface characterization methods suitable for semiconductor nanocrystal applications. In this thesis work, an AFM system with KPM capability was developed and implemented. It was observed that, the effect of electrostatic interaction of the probe cantilever with the sample can be significantly reduced by using higher order resonant modes for Kelvin force detection. Germanium nanocrystals were grown on silicon substrate using different g...
