| contents | This thesis summarizes the work of the author in two directions, both aimed at the study of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). The first topic presented is a measurement of groomed event shapes using archived data collected by the H1 experiment at HERA. The data analysis methods and physics implications of the results are discussed, with the goal of improving the theoretical description of the hadronic final state in electron-hadron collisions before the construction of the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The second topic concerns the sPHENIX experiment, which is now installed at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The sPHENIX physics program and apparatus will be discussed, along with a description of each of the subdetectors. Special attention will be dedicated to the operating principles, design, and construction of the time projection chamber (TPC). |
