Study of charge dependant higher harmonic correlations at LHC energies
Summary
The main goal of this thesis is to understand the Chiral Magnetic E ect (CME), stud-
ied by "A Large Ion Collider Experiment" (ALICE) at the "Large Hadron Collider"
(LHC). This e ect is of interest, since it is found to be caused by parity-symmetry
violating e ects, considering the strong-nuclear force. This is a relative recent nding
and could potentially have interesting implications. In order to understand this better
we have used simulation data to reconstruct what takes place in the found state of
matter, resulting from the collision, called Quark Gluon Plasma. For this thesis, these
simulation data are used and studied by using mathematical tools, called correlators.
For this thesis we have studied two of them.
The results found are however quite inconclusive. As will be described in section
5, the results suggest that more simulation data needs to be used and more con gu-
rations of input parameters need to studied, to nd how these correlators can help us
understand the experimental results.
