This thesis addresses in a very new and elegant way several
measurements and the extraction of so-called double parton
scattering. The new and elegant way lies in the combination of
measurements and a very smart extraction of double parton
scattering results, which is easy to apply and overcomes many of
the technical difficulties of older methods. Many new phenomena in
particle physics can be observed when particles are collided at the
highest energies; one of the highlights in recent years was the
discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.
Understanding the production mechanism of the Higgs boson at the
LHC requires detailed knowledge of the physics of proton-proton
collisions. When the density of partons in the protons becomes
large, there is a non-negligible probability that more than one
parton participates in the interaction and the so-called double
parton scattering becomes important. In some cases very particular
final state signatures can be observed, which can be regarded as an
indication of such double partonic scattering and where the
different interactions can be separated. Such multiple partonic
interactions play an important role when precise predictions from
known processes are required.
