Plotting the invariant mass of the final state particles gives a mass distribution of the B meson. In this distribution, the events are not only real B meson decays but they could come from different sources of background. Almost always you will have combinatorial background and, as it is the...

Hi everyone, I have to write a paper (like an essay) where I have to discuss the hints for lepton flavor violation (LFV) in B-hadron decays from LHCb, BaBar, Belle experiments. I have found that there are (rare) B-decays, mostly B-mesons, forbidden in the SM that signal flavor lepton violation...

So guys, thank you for your opinions. In the end I chose Amsterdam. It is a joint programme UvA/VU in particle physics (Grappa track). I also managed to find a slightly low-budget rent so I will be OK financially. However, I still have 1 unanswered question, which perhaps can be addressed by...

Thank you for your answers! So is it worth going to University of Amsterdam despite the greater financial effort? @BvU makes a good point, I assume i will spend a lot of time studying or working so I will not fully experience the city. Bottom line, I do not have the money nor the time to...

I have been accepted for a MSc of Physics and Astronomy at some universities in The Netherlands and Belgium and i have to decide which one to chose. I applied for similar programs in all of them, namely a programme focused on (experimental) particle physics. The Universities are: Univ. of...

Hello, I would like to apply to the IPSP master programme. Is there any master student there or anyone who knows about the application and admission procedure that could give me a method of contact so I can ask a few questions? It would be much easier if we could chat. Thanks!

So if i multiply the flux calculated by MCNP in this table by the macroscopic XS for fission and by the total volume of fissionable material i should get the total neutron source, that is the last column from my table? Φ [n/cm2s] × Σm[1/cm] (= σn) × V [cm3] = S (Total source) Is that correct...

I need some help with MCNP and I hope I can find it here!
