Amber JENKINS |
For my Ph.D. thesis I am working on D-Zero, one of the main detectors operating at the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider at Fermilab. I am currently searching for Z->bbbar decays in D-Zero data. This decay channel is a very important testbed for Higgs physics at the Tevatron and has not yet been observed at D-Zero. In addition, I have performed an extensive analysis of mass resolutions and jet energy resolutions in the ZH->e+e-bbbar and Z->bbbar channels. Such studies are vital for optimizing the b-jet resolution and bbbar mass attainable. My hardware work is primarily focused on the D-Zero Calorimeter. This includes monitoring the performance of the calorimeter and data quality, as well as data analysis. I am also involved in the monitoring of D-Zeroís Forward Proton Detector and, in the future, the Muon System. |
