Thesis Available within the CDF-Padova Group


The group activities are focused on the so called high momentum physics. We are deeply involved in the Higgs searches. The high mass region (MH>135 GeV) is explored with the search of H → WW and H → ZZ while the low mass region (MH<135 GeV) is studied through the decay H → bb-bar.
We are also measuring the top quark properties by studying the production cross section.
Some members of the group are involved in research on Computing for High Energy Physics and students from Computing Science can do their thesis in our group.
