Combination of measurements of the top quark mass from data collected by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at $\sqrt{s}=7$ and $8~\mathrm{TeV}$

A combination of fifteen top quark mass measurements performed by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC is presented. The data sets used correspond to an integrated luminosity of up to 5 and $20~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and $8~\mathrm{TeV}$, respectively. The combination includes measurements in top-quark pair events that exploit both the semi-leptonic and hadronic decays of the top quark, and a measurement using events enriched in single top quark production via the electroweak $t$-channel. The combination yields $m_{\mathrm{t}} = 172.52 \pm 0.14~(\mathrm{stat}) \pm 0.30~(\mathrm{syst}) ~\mathrm{GeV}$, with a total uncertainty of $0.33~\mathrm{GeV}$.

The CMS Phase 2 Outer Tracker Analyzer of Test Outputs - POTATO!

The Phase-2 upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), also known as the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) is designed to achieve peak instantaneous luminosities which is about an order of magnitude higher than the nominal design value of $10^{34}~cm^{-2}s^{-1}$ delivering a total of atleast $3000 fb^{-1}$ data over 10 years of operation at $\sqrt{s}~=~14~TeV$. One crucial aspect of the CMS Phase-2 detector upgrade is the replacement of the existing tracking detector in order to deal with the extreme HL-LHC conditions, retaining and further expanding the physics performances achieved in the previous years. The outer part of the upgraded tracker (OT), will be equipped with over 13,000 macro Pixel-Strip (PS) and Strip-Strip (2S) modules! Module production is distributed across centers worldwide and necessitates coordinated efforts and standardized procedures. Along with production and assembly of the modules, Fermilab OT group is also working on a tool, Phase 2 Outer Tracker Analyzer of Test Outputs (POTATO) that will analyze, grade, upload and manage the large quantity of files to be stored in the centralized Database (DB). In this contribution a brief overview of the module testing and the power and dire need of POTATO to handle this large number of test outputs will be presented.

Functional Verification for Endcap Concentrator ASICs in the High-Granularity Calorimeter Upgrade of CMS

The High-Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL) of CMS will undergo a major upgrade during Long-Shutdown 3. The Endcap Concentrator (ECON) ASICs represent key elements in the readout chain, processing trigger (ECON-T) and data (ECON-D) streams from the HGCROC to the lpGBT. The ECONs will operate in a radiation environment with a High-Energy Hadron (HEH) flux of $3\cdot10^{6} cm^{-2}s^{-1}$. This contribution describes the Universal Verification Methodology (UVM)-based functional verification of the ECON ASICs focusing on the re-use of existing components to manage the complexity of the verification environment.

Luminosity measurement for lead-lead collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}$ = 5.02 TeV in 2015 and 2018 at CMS

Measurements of the luminosity delivered to the CMS experiment during the lead-lead data-taking periods in 2015 and 2018 are presented for the first time. The collisions were recorded at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV; the 2018 data sample is three times larger than the 2015 data sample. Three subdetectors are used: the pixel luminosity telescope, the forward hadron calorimeters, and the fast beam conditions monitor. The absolute luminosity calibration is determined using the van der Meer technique that relies on transverse beam separation scans. The dominant sources of uncertainty are the transverse factorizability of the bunch density profiles and, in 2015, the difference between the results obtained using various detectors. The total uncertainty in the integrated luminosity, including the stability of the calibrated subdetector response over time, amounts to 3.0% for 2015, 1.7% for 2018, and 1.6% for the combined data sample.

CMS Token Transition

Within the LHC community, a momentous transition has been occurring in authorization. For nearly 20 years, services within the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) have authorized based on mapping an identity, derived from an X.509 credential, or a group/role, derived from a VOMS extension issued by the experiment. A fundamental shift is occurring to capabilities: the credential, a bearer token, asserts the authorizations of the bearer, not the identity. By the HL-LHC era, the CMS experiment plans for the transition to tokens, based on the WLCG Common JSON Web Token profile, to be complete. Services in the technology architecture include the INDIGO Identity and Access Management server to issue tokens; a HashiCorp Vault server to store and refresh access tokens for users and jobs; a managed token bastion server to push credentials to the HTCondor CredMon service; and HTCondor to maintain valid tokens in long-running batch jobs. We will describe the transition plans of the experiment, current status, configuration of the central authorization server, lessons learned in commissioning token-based access with sites, and operational experience using tokens for both job submissions and file transfers.

Design and Testing of the Endcap Concentrator ASICs for the CMS High-Granularity Calorimeter Upgrade

A major upgrade of the High-Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL) in the CMS detector is planned for Long-Shutdown 3 (LS3), currently expected to start in 2026. This upgrade will contain over 6 million channels and the electronics will be required to be low power and to withstand a radiation environment with a High-Energy Hadron flux of 3x10**6 particles per square centimeter per second. The solution to this significant challenge is the two Endcap Concentrator (ECON) ASICs, ECON-T and ECON-D, working in tandem with the HGCROC front-end ASIC. The two ECON ASICs provide critical on-detector data reduction for both the 40 MHz trigger path (ECON-T) and 750 kHz data acquisition path (ECON-D) of the HGCAL. The ASICs are fabricated in 65nm CMOS. They are rad-tolerant to 600 Mrad with low power consumption (<2.5 mW/channel). This presentation will be a comprehensive description of each ECON design, including the infrastructure that they share as well as the elements that make each unique. The presentation will also include functionality and radiation tests for both ASICs, and the first high statistics characterization results from the full production of 75k ECON-D and ECON-T ASICs.

Measurement of the weak mixing angle at 13 TeV with the CMS detector

This document summarizes work in experimental high-energy physics completed as part of the author’s doctoral studies. The central piece of this thesis is the precision measurement of the effective weak mixing angle at the CMS detector. The effective weak mixing angle is a key parameter in the standard model of particle physics and is sensitive to radiative corrections from beyond standard model physics. The measurement is made by using the forward backwards asymmetry of Drell-Yan dilepton pairs. The data is from proton proton collisions at √s =13 TeV collected in Run 2 of the LHC from 2016-2018. The measurement uses dimuon and dielectron pairs and includes a special class of forward electrons developed for this measurement that do not rely on the tracking subdetector. Using the CT18Z parton distribution function set the weak mixing angle was determined to be [equation did not render] The largest contribution to the uncertainty comes from the parton distribution functions.

RPC background studies at CMS experiment

During Run2 the high instantaneous luminosity, up to 2.2 · 10 34 cm -2 s -1 , lead to a substantial hit rate in the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment’s muon chambers due to multiple background sources to physics processes sought for at LHC. In this article we will describe the analysis method devised to measure and identify the contributions to such background in the Resistive Plate Chambers. Thorough understanding of the background rates provides the base for the upgrade of the muon detectors for the High-Luminosity LHC.

Elementary Particle Interactions with CMS at LHC

The High Energy Particle Physics group of the University of Tennessee participates in the search for new particles and forces in proton-proton collisions at the LHC with the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment. Since the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, the search has intensified to find new generations of particles beyond the standard model using the higher collision energies and ever increasing luminosity, either directly or via deviations from standard model predictions such as the Higgs boson decays. As part of this effort, the UTK group has expanded the search for new particles in four-muon final states, and in final states with jets, has successfully helped and continues to help to implement and operate an instrument for improved measurements of the luminosity needed for all data analyses, and has continued to conduct research of new technologies for charged particle tracking at a high-luminosity LHC.

Directed Flow and the Chiral Magnetic Effect in Ultrarelativistic Collisions with CMS at the LHC (Final Technical Report for DOE Grant # DE-SC0021080)

This Final Technical Report covers the years of activity for the Grant DE-SC0021080. It reflects the efforts of Alice Mignerey, the PI, Timothy Koeth, the co-PI, graduate students Eric Adams and Samuel Lascio, and undergraduates Alyssa Marinelli and Max Bernard. Results from three separate aspects of the project are presented: 1) understanding the radiation damage of the positive and negative sides of the Spectator Reaction Plane detector (SRPD) for data from the 2018 PbPb run at the CERN LHC. 2) Results of the directed flow in PbPb collisions at $\sqrt{SNN}$ = 5.02 TeV. 3) Activation studies of the sectors of the positive side of the SRPD and radiation damage studies on fused quartz using the Maryland 4-MeV electron accelerator. The most significant result is that the reaction plane derived directed flow for both participant and spectator reaction planes is many times larger than that obtained by ALICE.
