\begin{enumerate}
    \item Introduction \& Theoretical background
    \begin{itemize}
        \item Rather broad \& general physics background i.e. some SM and QCD.
        \item pp collisions - what, why (also consider PbPb, even if I don't analyze them)
        \item relevant unanswered questions (strangeness enhancement, soft QCD, hadronization) \\

        \item In depth discussion of relevant topics such as the relevant properties of QCD, string model, ...
    \end{itemize}

    \item ``Detector chapter"
    \begin{itemize}
        \item overview of the ALICE detector
        \item some extra considerations on the most relevant subdetectors (ITS, TPC) and possible implications of this (type of) analysis
        \item O2 framework
    \end{itemize}

    \item Analysis\\
    (could be split in multiple chapters)
    \begin{enumerate}
        \item Analysis details \& Methodology
        \begin{itemize}
            \item Reconstruction of cascade candidates
            \item invariant mass selections
            \item Defining correlations: variables ($\Delta\varphi$, $\Delta y$), combinations (opposite-sign, same-sign), normalization, etc.
            \item (yields?)
            \item explain corrections like efficiency, mixed events
            \item (systematic) uncertainties and validation
            \item cut \& dry list of datasets, cascade selection criteria, event selection, etc.
        \end{itemize}

        \item Results \& Discussion
        \begin{itemize}
            \item MC results/discussion
            \item data results/discussion
            \item comparison between the two
        \end{itemize}

        \item Conclusion, outlook
    \end{enumerate}
