Searches for New Physics at High Object Masses with CMS

Searches at high object masses probe both resonant production of new particles and nonresonant distortions of Standard Model spectra. This contribution follows the material presented in the Moriond Electroweak 2026 talk and summarizes recent CMS results in this regime: the Run~2 combination of heavy vector boson searches, the Run~3 search for $W^\prime \to \ell ν$, the Run~2 dijet angular analysis, and searches for pair-produced dijet resonances in inclusive and $b$-tagged final states. No significant deviation from the SM expectation is observed, and the new results extend the sensitivity of CMS to multi-TeV scales in several benchmark scenarios.

Exploring jets: substructure and flavour tagging in CMS and ATLAS

The identification and characterization of jets are crucial tasks for effectively probing fundamental particle interactions. The ATLAS and CMS experiments have developed cutting-edge techniques to improve jet identification and calibration, employing innovative approaches including advanced neural network architectures, attention-based mechanisms, and adversarial training. These proceedings provide a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art methods employed by both collaborations, highlighting their similarities, unique strengths, and limitations through a comparative analysis.

Reconstruction of jets and missing transverse momentum at the CMS experiment: Run 2 and perspective for Run 3

The performance of reconstruction and calibration of jets and missing transverse momentum in the CMS Collaboration, together with the latest tools for pileup mitigation, is presented. The results shown are relative to the data collected from 2016 to 2018 (Run 2) in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. An outlook to the new techniques foreseen for Run 3 is discussed.
