Accordingly, the goal of the work was to synthesize and investigate an electron-poor corannulene bis(dicarboximide) based on previously published work but with higher solubility and less steric encumbrance in imide position to enable self-assembly in solution. To obtain further insights into the conformational stability, structure and chiroptical properties of heavily twisted PBIs another aim of this thesis was the design, synthesis, and optoelectronic investigation of various fourfold directly arylated PBIs by substitution in bay position with smaller hydrocarbons with different steric demand, i.e., benzene, naphthalene and pyrene, which should be separable by chiral high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). As of yet, no concise study concerning the optical and electronic properties of differently core-substituted PBIs in the neutral as well as the mono- and dianionic state in solution is available, which also elucidates the origin of the different optical transitions observed in the absorption and emission spectra. Thus, in this thesis, the investigation of five PBI derivatives with different frontier energetic levels to produce a reference work of reduced PBIs was tackled.}, subject = {Corannulene}, language = {en} } @article{OPUS4-22691, title = {FCC-hh: The Hadron Collider: Future Circular Collider Conceptual Design Report Volume 3}, series = {European Physical Journal - Special Topics}, volume = {228}, journal = {European Physical Journal - Special Topics}, organization = {The FCC Collaboration}, doi = {10.1140/epjst/e2019-900087-0}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-226917}, pages = {755-1107}, year = {2019}, abstract = {In response to the 2013 Update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics (EPPSU), the Future Circular Collider (FCC) study was launched as a world-wide international collaboration hosted by CERN. The FCC study covered an energy-frontier hadron collider (FCC-hh), a highest-luminosity high-energy lepton collider (FCC-ee), the corresponding 100km tunnel infrastructure, as well as the physics opportunities of these two colliders, and a high-energy LHC, based on FCC-hh technology. This document constitutes the third volume of the FCC Conceptual Design Report, devoted to the hadron collider FCC-hh. It summarizes the FCC-hh physics discovery opportunities, presents the FCC-hh accelerator design, performance reach, and staged operation plan, discusses the underlying technologies, the civil engineering and technical infrastructure, and also sketches a possible implementation. Combining ingredients from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the high-luminosity LHC upgrade and adding novel technologies and approaches, the FCC-hh design aims at significantly extending the energy frontier to 100TeV. Its unprecedented centre of-mass collision energy will make the FCC-hh a unique instrument to explore physics beyond the Standard Model, offering great direct sensitivity to new physics and discoveries.}, language = {en} } @article{AlacevichCarloniCalameChiesaetal.2019, author = {Alacevich, Massimo and Carloni Calame, Carlo M. and Chiesa, Mauro and Montagna, Guido and Nicrosini, Oreste and Piccinini, Fulvio}, title = {Muon-electron scattering at NLO}, series = {Journal of High Energy Physics}, volume = {155}, journal = {Journal of High Energy Physics}, number = {2}, doi = {10.1007/JHEP02(2019)155}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-227777}, pages = {1-25}, year = {2019}, abstract = {We consider the process of muon-electron elastic scattering, which has been proposed as an ideal framework to measure the running of the electromagnetic coupling constant at space-like momenta and determine the leading-order hadronic contribution to the muon g-2 (MUonE experiment). We compute the next-to-leading (NLO) contributions due to QED and purely weak corrections and implement them into a fully differential Monte Carlo event generator, which is available for first experimental studies. We show representative phenomenological results of interest for the MUonE experiment and examine in detail the impact of the various sources of radiative corrections under different selection criteria, in order to study the dependence of the NLO contributions on the applied cuts. The study represents the first step towards the realisation of a high-precision Monte Carlo code necessary for data analysis.}, language = {en} }
