The Road to DiscoveryDetector Alignment, Electron Identification, Particle Misidentification, WW Physics, and the Discovery of the Higgs Boson /[electronic resource] :by John Alison. - 1st ed. 2015. - XXII, 302 p. 223 illus., 99 illus. in color.online resource. - Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-5053. - Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,.

Introduction and Theoretical Background -- The Large Hadron Collider -- The ATLAS Experiment -- Reconstruction and Commissioning -- Detector Alignment -- TRT Alignment -- Electron Identification -- WW Physics -- The Fake Factor Method -- WW Cross Section Measurement.

The research presented here includes important contributions on the commissioning of the ATLAS experiment and the discovery of the Higgs boson. The thesis describes essential work on the alignment of the inner tracker during the commissioning of the experiment and development of the electron identification algorithm. The subsequent analysis focuses on the search for the Higgs boson in the WW channel, including the development of a method to model the critical W+jet background. In addition, the thesis provides excellent introductions, suitable for non-specialists, to Higgs physics, to the LHC, and to the ATLAS experiment.
