Upgrades to the eSTARlight Monte Carlo Event Generator
… including vector mesons. The eSTARlight Monte Carlo event generator simulates these collisions and calculates the cross sections of vector meson production reactions. This thesis describes the upgrades I made to eSTARlight for better simulation of electron-ion collisions. Since the …

STARlight: A C++ Object-Oriented Monte Carlo Event Generator for Ultra-Peripheral Collisions
… effectively study ultraperipheral collisions, a Monte Carlo event generator was created to simulate ultrarelativistic Au-Au interactions. This was initially written in FORTRAN in 1995, and used by the STAR Collaboration to optimize particle selection criteria and to assess whether rarer physics …

Exclusive J/Ψ Vector-Meson production in high-energy nuclear collisions: a cross-section determinaton in the Colour Glass Condensate effective field theory and a feasibility study using the STARlight Monte Carlo event generator
… part of the thesis is a feasibility study using Monte Carlo simulations done by the STARlight event generator. A prediction is made for how many exclusive J /Ψ vector-mesons are expected to be detected by ATLAS in a data set corresponding to 160 μb−1 total integrated luminosity. It is found that …

Commissioning the DIRC Detector and Searching for Axion-like Particles at GlueX
… of the axion-like particles. In addition, the Monte Carlo modeling of the strong interaction at low energies leads to challenges known as the event generator tuning problem. This thesis presents a novel approach to the Monte Carlo event generator tuning problem using Bayesian optimization.
