Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

While the on-going Run-3 data-taking campaign will provide twice the integrated proton-proton luminosity currently available at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), most of the data expected for the full LHC physics program will only be delivered during the High Luminosity LHC phase, currently scheduled to start in 2030. For this, the LHC will undergo an ambitious upgrade program to be able to...

In 2030, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will begin operating at a higher instantaneous luminosity. At the ATLAS detector, this will result in an average of 200 interactions per proton-proton bunch crossing. In order to prepare for high-luminosity, the ATLAS detector must undergo several upgrades, including the replacement of the current particle tracker with the inner tracker (ITk). The new...

532. Chasing a Rare Higgs Decay: From the LHC to the High Luminosity LHC using Neural Nets

Oral Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition orale (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

The rare Higgs boson decay to two muons provides the best opportunity to measure the Higgs boson's coupling to a second generation fermion. The ATLAS collaboration at CERN has recently established evidence for this decay at 3.4 standard deviations ($\sigma$) using data from Run 2 and part of Run 3. Significance is expected to increase as the remaining Run 3 data from the Large Hadron Collider...

Oral Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition orale (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

The ATLAS detector is a general purpose detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) that investigates a variety of physics, ranging from Higgs boson to possible particles that make up of dark matter. The LHC will be upgraded to become High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) at the end of this decade, and in subsequent run periods a high-pileup environment resulting in up to 200 events per proton-proton...
