Studying the applicability of densities mixture unfolding for heavy ion jet spectra in the ALICE experiment

The results of a three months summer project from July 4th 2016 to September 23rd are presented in this summer student report.\\ The method presented in the paper\footnote{\url{http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168900215000406}} on densities mixture unfolding by Nikolay Gagunashvili and its software implementation were studied. A mind map flowchart, plotting macros and documentation were produced and while an 18 fold performance boost trough parallelization could be achieved, the verdict on the applicability of this method for heavy ion jet spectra in the ALICE experiment remains inconclusive. This is mainly due to a lack of time and complexity of the method and its implementation.
