Measurement of Time-Dependent CP Violation in B0 → ŋcK0S at Belle Experiment, Optimization Studies of the Belle II Vertex Detector
Drásal, Zbyněk
Title: Measurement of Time-Dependent CP Violation in B0 → ηcK0 S at Belle Experi- ment, Optimization Studies of the Belle II Vertex Detector Author: Zbyněk Drásal Department: Institute of Particle and Nuclear Physics Supervisor: Dr. Zdeněk Doležal, IPNP Supervisor's e-mail address: Zdenek.Dolezal@mff.cuni.cz Abstract: This doctoral thesis deals with two independent topics. In the first part we present a measurement of branching ratio(s) and time-dependent CP violation parame- ters in B0 (B± ) → ηcK0 S(K± ), ηc → p¯p. The values of CP violation parameters have been found as follows: sin 2φ1, denoted as an SCP parameter, equals: SCP = 0.68+0.38 −0.46±0.13syst, the direct CP violation parameter, denoted as an ACP , is: ACP = 0.00+0.23 −0.31 ± 0.08syst. These results have been obtained with the final data sample of 772×106 B ¯B pairs collected at Υ(4S) resonance with a Belle detector at the KEKB e+ e− asymmetric collider machine in Japan. In the second part, we present our approach to the Monte Carlo (MC) simula- tion of Belle II vertex detector and its response to high energy particles. Belle II represents an upgrade of current Belle experiment and its designed vertex detector will consist of 2 layers of Depfet pixel detectors (PXD) and 4 layers of double-sided silicon micro-strip detectors (SVD). The MC...

Simulation of noise in the Belle II strip vertex detector
Gruberová, Zuzana ; Kvasnička, Peter (advisor) ; Červenkov, Daniel (referee)
Title: Simulation of noise in the Belle II strip vertex detector Author: Zuzana Gruberová Institute: Institute of Particle and Nuclear Physics Supervisor: RNDr. Peter Kvasnička, Institute of Particle and Nuclear Physics Abstract: This bachelor thesis describes the development of strip noise simulation for the Belle II strip vertex detector (SVD). The overview part of the thesis describes the Belle II experiment and its detector system. The next part summarizes the basic princi- ples of semiconductor detectors with a focus on electronic noise. This section is followed by a more detailed description of Belle II SVD, its noise characteristics and simulation methods. The methods part introduces basic concepts of noise simulation using ma- chine learning methods, in particular, artificial neural networks. The experimental part describes the development and implementation of a production noise generator, and dis- cusses the performance, precision, and alternative solutions. Keywords: particle physics, Belle II, strip detector, noise, simulation, neural network 1
