Description

The thesis utilizes data from the ALICE experiment at Large Hadron Collider, CERN, to measure the production cross-section of electrons from beauty-hadron decays in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of √s = 13 TeV. The primary motivations are to investigate electrons from beauty-hadron decays in a higher transverse momentum (pT ) range, extending up to pT = 35 GeV/c, an unexplored domain within the ALICE experiment. Additionally, the measurement aims to test perturbative-QCD calculations and serves as a baseline for studying nuclear modifications in proton-nucleus (p−A) and nucleus-nucleus (A−A) collisions. Such studies provide insights into the effects of cold nuclear matter in p−A collisions and shed light on how the QGP impacts heavy quark's behaviour as they traverse the medium in A−A collisions.
