Experimental uncertainties related to hadronic object reconstruction can limit the precision of physics analyses at the LHC, and so improvements in performance have the potential to broadly increase the impact of results. Recent refinements to reconstruction and calibration procedures for ATLAS jets and MET result in reduced uncertainties, improved pileup stability and other performance gains....
We present new developments in jet reconstruction and calibration for LHC Run3. A new regression approach for jet calibration is explored and pileup mitigation techniques are developed for joint reconstruction of hadronic taus and jets.
Hadronic object reconstruction is one of the most promising settings for cutting-edge machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms at the LHC. In this contribution, highlights of ML/AI applications by ATLAS to particle and boosted-object identification, MET reconstruction and other tasks will be presented.
A fundamental aspect of CMS researches concerns the identification and characterisation of jets originating from quarks and gluons produced in high-energy proton-proton collisions. Electroweak scale resonances (Z/W bosons), Higgs bosons and top quarks are often produced with high Lorentz-boosts, where their products become highly collimated large and massive jets, usually reconstructed as AK8...
Flavour-tagging is a critical component of the ATLAS experiment physics programme. Existing flavour tagging algorithms rely on several low-level taggers, which are a combination of physically informed algorithms and machine learning models. A novel approach presented here instead uses a single machine learning model based on reconstructed tracks, avoiding the need for low-level taggers based...
New searches with exotic jet substructure techniques from CMS are presented. Signatures with challenging reconstruction techniques include displaced jets, closely merge photon-pairs and soft unclustered energy patterns. New reconstruction techniques making use of machine learning and physics results are presented.
The ATLAS Level-1 Calorimeter (L1Calo) trigger is a custom-built hardware system that identifies events containing calorimeter-based physics objects, including electrons, photons, taus, jets, and missing transverse energy. The L1Calo system has been upgraded for Run 3 to respond to the challenging environment characterized by increasingly high luminosity and pileup conditions. As part of this...
