A leading family of algorithms for state estimation in dynamic systems with multiple sub-states is based on particle filters (PFs). PFs often struggle when operating under complex or approximated modelling (necessitating many particles)…
The planned upgrade of the CMS detector for the High Luminosity LHC allows to find tracks in the silicon tracker for every single LHC collision and use them in the first level (hardware) trigger decision. So far, studies by CMS…
High energy physics experiments, in particular experiments at the LHC, require the reconstruction of charged particle trajectories. Methods of reconstructing such trajectories have been known for decades, yet the applications at High…
We present a novel deep neural network architecture for end-to-end scene flow estimation that directly operates on large-scale 3D point clouds. Inspired by Bilateral Convolutional Layers (BCL), we propose novel DownBCL, UpBCL, and CorrBCL…
The LHCb collaboration has redesigned its trigger to enable the full offline detector reconstruction to be performed in real time. Together with the real-time alignment and calibration of the detector, and a software infrastructure to make…
We describe the Hybrid seeding, a standalone pattern recognition algorithm aiming at finding charged particle trajectories for the LHCb upgrade. A significant improvement to the charged particle reconstruction efficiency is accomplished by…
Since 2022, the LHCb detector has been taking both proton-proton and lead-ion data at the LHC collision rate using a fully software-based trigger. This has been implemented on GPUs at its first stage and CPUs at its second. The setup allows…
Long-lived particles (LLPs) are a common feature in many beyond the Standard Model theories, including supersymmetry, and are generically produced in exotic Higgs decays. Unfortunately, no existing or proposed search strategy will be able…
The LHCb detector provides accurate vertex reconstruction and hadronic particle identification, which make the experiment an ideal place to look for light long-lived particles (LLP) decaying into Standard Model (SM) hadrons. In contrast…
Collider experiments are equipped with trigger systems that rapidly inspect the physics content emerging from collisions to decide whether the resulting products are worth saving for later analysis. One crucial aspect for analyzing the…
Particle physics experiments often require the simultaneous reconstruction of many interaction vertices. Usually, this problem is solved by ad hoc heuristic algorithms. We propose a universal approach to address the multiple vertex finding…
Faced with physical and energy density limitations on clock speed, contemporary microprocessor designers have increasingly turned to on-chip parallelism for performance gains. Algorithms should accordingly be designed with ample amounts of…
Many models of dark matter predict long-lived particles (LLPs) that can give rise to striking signatures at the LHC. Existing searches for displaced vertices are however tailored towards heavy LLPs. In this work we show that this bias…
In Run-3, beginning in 2022, the LHCb software trigger will start reconstructing events at the LHC average crossing rate of 30 MHz. Within the upgraded DAQ system, LHCb established a testbed for new heterogeneous computing solutions for…
Interest in many-core architectures applied to real time selections is growing in High Energy Physics (HEP) experiments. In this paper we describe performance measurements of many-core devices when applied to a typical HEP online task: the…
At the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), traditional track reconstruction techniques that are critical for analysis are expected to face challenges due to scaling with track density. Quantum annealing has shown promise in its…
Quantum Computing is a rapidly developing field with the potential to tackle the increasing computational challenges faced in high-energy physics. In this work, we explore the potential and limitations of variational quantum algorithms in…
After the current shutdown, the LHC is about to resume operation for a new data-taking period, when it will operate with increased luminosity, event rate and center of mass energy. The new conditions will impose more demanding constraints…
With the planned addition of tracking information to the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) Level-1 trigger for the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), the trigger algorithms can be completely reconceptualized. We explore the…
We report on recent progress in the design of the proposed MATHUSLA Long Lived Particle (LLP) detector for the HL-LHC, updating the information in the original Letter of Intent (LoI), see CDS:LHCC-I-031, arXiv:1811.00927. A suitable site…
