Associated production of W + charm in 13 TeV proton-proton collisions measured with CMS and determination of the strange quark content of the proton / Svenja Karen Pflitsch.

The associated production of a W boson and a single charm quark (W+c) is the only process in proton-proton collisions that directly probes the strange quark content of the proton. In this thesis, W+charm production is measured in proton-proton collisions at the LHC at 13 TeV, as recorded by the Comp...
