Description

My summer student project explored the feasibility of detecting final states with boosted top quarks at 100 TeV with the baseline FCC-hh detector. I focused specifically on the $Z' \rightarrow t\overline{t}$ hadronic process. I determined the exclusion cross-section of $Z' \rightarrow t\overline{t}$ and the integrated luminosity required to make a discovery at the baseline FCC detector at 95% confidence level.
