Study of the Effects of Anomalous Quartic Gauge Couplings on the Scattering of Two Gauge Bosons VV→VV at the Large Hadron Collider

In this thesis, the influences of different parametrizations of an effective theory on Vector Boson Scattering were studied. Samples on "generator level" were simulated with VBFNLO and WHIZARD and compared using the analysis tool RIVET. The influences of the aQGC parameters $f_i$ and $\alpha_i$ of an effective Lagrangian were studied to set limits on them in further studies. Furthermore a conversion between them was tried to be found and compared to a prediction [1]. Two different unitarizations were compared. A conversion of the different parametrizations was possible although a strong effect of the unitarization method was observed. The predicted conversion was not confirmed, since the dependencies of the total cross sections showed a behaviour not compatible.
