Abstract

A method of measuring multiple temporally resolved powder x-ray diffraction measurements during a single dynamic compression laser experiment has been demonstrated on the OMEGA EP laser. Up to four time-gated snapshots of the x-ray diffraction pattern are collected on an ultrafast x-ray framing camera with a 2θ scattering angle coverage of 48°–65° and 400-ps temporal resolution with the potential for 10°–160° and 200-ps resolution. X-ray diffraction snapshots capture the transformation to a high-pressure β phase in ramp-compressed Zr, constraining the atomic structure and pressure–density equation-of-state in a single shot. Here, this platform will be used to constrain transition pressures, understand the role of kinetics, and verify the existence of hysteresis and metastability on phase transformations at the lattice level under single-shot dynamic compression.

High Multiplicity Trigger for long-lived particles in CMS detector

Searches for long-lived particles (LLPs) at the CMS experiment often involve unconventional event topologies that are difficult to efficiently select using standard trigger strategies. To improve sensitivity to such signatures during LHC Run 3 operation, a dedicated High Multiplicity Trigger (HMT) has been developed and deployed in the CMS trigger system. The trigger targets events containing unusually large numbers of hits in the CMS cathode strip chamber (CSC) muon detectors, a characteristic signature of several LLP scenarios involving displaced decays in the muon system. The HMT implementation, trigger logic, rate dependence with pileup, and operational stability are described. Optimized hit multiplicity thresholds are used to maintain acceptable trigger rates under high-luminosity and high-pileup conditions while preserving high efficiency across a broad range of LLP lifetimes and kinematic regimes. The trigger performance is evaluated using both simulated event samples and proton-proton collision data collected during Run 3 of the LHC. The HMT substantially extends the CMS sensitivity to non-standard signatures associated with LLP decays and provides a flexible platform for future searches for physics beyond the Standard Model.
