Top Reconstruction Techniques in 0-Lepton Direct Stop Searches
A brief overview of my project dealing with top quark reconstructions from hadronic (3 jet) decays. I will also discuss the importance of this reconstruction algorithm to my working group, SUSY, and the general public.

ALICE Physics Selection Quality Assurance
The ALICE experiment uses a low level offline physics selection to check that all events passed by the triggers for saving are operating correctly. The code used for quality assurance has been in constant evolution and needs serious restructuring.

Reconstruction of the Single Top
Brief introduction to the motivations behind the CMS experiment, and more specifically, looking at the single top quark, produced primarily through electroweak interactions in the t-channel decay at the energies obtained within the LHC detector.

Studies of Same Sign WW Vector Boson Scattering at the ATLAS Experiment
The SM theory is based on gauge symmetries and it predicts that all particles to be massless without EWSB. We need to figure out the source for the EWSB mechanism studying the backgrounds in these case the W+W+ one.
