Anomaly detection at the LHC aims to identify events that deviate from dominant Standard Model (SM) processes while minimizing assumptions inherent to predefined trigger selections, enabling model-agnostic searches for new physics. The CMS experiment employs a two-stage trigger system that reduces the LHC bunch-crossing rate of up to 40 MHz to an output rate of approximately 9 kHz for offline...

This study investigates the enhancement of boosted top quark tagging at the ATLAS detector by integrating jet substructure features, captured through the Lund Jet Plane (LJP) and the LundNet Graph Neural Network, with b-tagging information from the GN3X transformer model. The study demonstrates that combining these orthogonal data sources improves background rejection compared to using...

Quantum computing is a rapidly emerging technology with potential applications in particle physics. From the direct simulation of quantum field theories on quantum hardware to the acceleration of computationally demanding components of data analysis, the interface between quantum information science and high-energy physics has become an active and expanding area of research. Potential...

At the Large Hadron Collider, the ATLAS detector experiences a collision rate of about 1 billion proton-proton collisions per second. This rate of collisions is far too large for us to store all observed events, so only interesting events are stored. The ATLAS trigger system reduces this input rate to a manageable 3 kHz via the use of the hardware-based Level 1 trigger and the software-based...
