Wielding New Technologies to Improve Jet Tagging in Search for BSM Physics with the CMS Detector at CERN

 

The CMS Experiment uses the Large Hadron Collider at CERN to study fundamental interactions at the Energy Frontier. Run 3 of the LHC is approaching its end, which in turn marks the beginning of the High Luminosity LHC era. The CMS detector will complete its Phase-II upgrades, providing the Collaboration with exciting new opportunities for discovery and understanding. This seminar will focus on the use of jet tagging in all-hadronic searches for partners to 3rd generation quarks, in particular considerations for Machine Learning based tools. Upgrades to the CMS Endcap will be discussed, in particular the improvements to the muon system. We will also discuss the impact science communication and efforts to engage marginalized communities has on our field.
