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.

On the dynamics of the boundary vorticity for incompressible viscous flows

The dynamical equation of the boundary vorticity has been obtained, which shows that the viscosity at a solid wall is doubled as if the fluid became more viscous at the boundary. For certain viscous flows the boundary vorticity can be determined via the dynamical equation up to bounded errors for all time, without the need of knowing the details of the main stream flows. We then validate the dynamical equation by carrying out stochastic direct numerical simulations (i.e. the random vortex method for wall-bounded incompressible viscous flows) by two different means of updating the boundary vorticity, one using mollifiers of the Biot-Savart singular integral kernel, another using the dynamical equations.

Nanoscale tip positioning with a multi-tip scanning tunneling microscope using topography images

Multi-tip scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is a powerful method to perform charge transport measurements at the nanoscale. With four STM tips positioned on the surface of a sample, four-point resistance measurements can be performed in dedicated geometric configurations. Here, we present an alternative to the most often used scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging to infer the corresponding tip positions. After initial coarse positioning monitored by an optical microscope, STM scanning itself is used to determine the inter-tip distances. A large STM overview scan serves as a reference map. Recognition of the same topographic features in the reference map and in small scale images with the individual tips allows to identify the tip positions with an accuracy of about 20 nm for a typical tip spacing of ~1 $μ$m. In order to correct for effects like the non-linearity of the deflection, creep and hysteresis of the piezo-electric elements of the STM, a careful calibration has to be performed.

Monte Carlo, fitting and Machine Learning for Tau leptons

Status of tau lepton decay Monte Carlo generator TAUOLA, and its main recent applications are reviewed. It is underlined, that in recent efforts on development of new hadronic currents, the multi-dimensional nature of distributions of the experimental data must be taken with a great care. Studies for H to tau tau; tau to hadrons indeed demonstrate that multi-dimensional nature of distributions is important and available for evaluation of observables where tau leptons are used to constrain experimental data. For that part of the presentation, use of the TAUOLA program for phenomenology of H and Z decays at LHC is discussed, in particular in the context of the Higgs boson parity measurements with the use of Machine Learning techniques. Some additions, relevant for QED lepton pair emission and electroweak corrections are mentioned as well.

Orbit spaces of torus actions on Hessenberg varieties

We consider effective actions of a compact torus $T^{n-1}$ on an even-dimensional smooth manifold $M^{2n}$ with isolated fixed points. We prove that under certain conditions on weights of tangent representations, the orbit space is a manifold with corners. Given that the action is Hamiltonian, the orbit space is homeomorphic to $S^{n+1} \setminus (U_1 \sqcup \ldots \sqcup U_l)$ where $S^{n+1}$ is the $(n+1)$--sphere and $U_1, \ldots, U_l$ are open domains. We apply the results to regular Hessenberg varieties and manifolds of isospectral Hermitian matrices of staircase form.

Four-point probe measurements using current probes with voltage feedback to measure electric potentials

We present a four-point probe resistance measurement technique which uses four equivalent current measuring units, resulting in minimal hardware requirements and corresponding sources of noise. Local sample potentials are measured by a software feedback loop which adjusts the corresponding tip voltage such that no current flows to the sample. The resulting tip voltage is then equivalent to the sample potential at the tip position. We implement this measurement method into a multi-tip scanning tunneling microscope setup such that potentials can also be measured in tunneling contact, allowing in principle truly non-invasive four-probe measurements. The resulting measurement capabilities are demonstrated for BiSbTe$_3$ and Si$(111)-(7\times7)$ samples.

Si(111) strained layers on Ge(111): evidence for c(2x4) domains

The tensile strained Si(111) layers grown on top of Ge(111) substrates are studied by combining scanning tunneling microscopy, low energy electron diffraction and first-principles calculations. It is shown that the layers exhibit c(2x4) domains, which are separated by domain walls along <-110> directions. A model structure for the c(2x4) domains is proposed, which shows low formation energy and good agreement with the experimental data. The results of our calculations suggest that Ge atoms are likely to replace Si atoms with dangling bonds on the surface (rest-atoms and adatoms), thus significantly lowering the surface energy and inducing the formation of domain walls. The experiments and calculations demonstrate that when surface strain changes from compressive to tensile, the (111) reconstruction converts from dimer-adatom-stacking fault-based to adatom-based structures.

Scanning tunneling potentiometry implemented into a multi-tip setup by software

We present a multi-tip scanning tunneling potentiometry technique that can be implemented into existing multi-tip scanning tunneling microscopes without hardware changes. The resulting setup allows flexible in situ contacting of samples under UHV conditions and subsequent measurement of the sample topography and local electric potential with resolution down to Å and μV, respectively. The performance of the potentiometry feedback is demonstrated by thermovoltage measurements on the Ag/Si$(111)-(\sqrt3\times\sqrt3)\rm R30^{\circ}$ surface by resolving a standing wave pattern. Subsequently, the ability to map the local transport field as a result of a lateral current through the sample surface is shown on Ag/Si$(111)-(\sqrt3\times\sqrt3)\rm R30^{\circ}$ and Si$(111)-(7\times7)$ surfaces.

CVC and τ\rightarrow η(η^\prime)π^{-}π^{0}ν_τ

We use experimental data on $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow ηπ^{+}π^{-}$ and $τ^{-} \to ηπ^{-}π^{0}ν_τ$ to test conservation of vector current (CVC) by comparing the predicted hadronic spectrum and branching fraction with the $τ$ decay data. Based on the corresponding $e^+e^-$ data and CVC, we also calculate the branching fraction of $τ^{-} \to η^\primeπ^{-}π^{0}ν_τ$ decay.

Quest for precision in hadronic cross sections at low energy: Monte Carlo tools vs. experimental data

We present the achievements of the last years of the experimental and theoretical groups working on hadronic cross section measurements at the low energy e+e- colliders in Beijing, Frascati, Ithaca, Novosibirsk, Stanford and Tsukuba and on tau decays. We sketch the prospects in these fields for the years to come. We emphasise the status and the precision of the Monte Carlo generators used to analyse the hadronic cross section measurements obtained as well with energy scans as with radiative return, to determine luminosities and tau decays. The radiative corrections fully or approximately implemented in the various codes and the contribution of the vacuum polarisation are discussed.

Suppression of antiferromagnetic correlations by quenched dipole--type impurities

The effect of quenched random ferromagnetic bonds on the antiferromagnetic correlation length of a two--dimensional Heisneberg model is studied, applying the renormalization group method to the classical non--linear sigma model with quenched random dipole moments. It is found that the antiferromagnetic long range order is destroyed for any non--zero concentration, of the dipolar defects, even at zero temperature. Below a line T ~ concentration, the correlation length is independent of T, and decreases exponentially with concentration. At higher temperatures, itdecays exponentially with an effective stiffness constant which decreases with concentration/T. The results are used to estimate the three--dimensional Néel temperature, which decays linearly with $x$ at small concentrations, and drops precipitously at a critical concentration. These predictions are compared with experiments on doped copper oxides, and are shown to reproduce successfully some of the prominent features of the data.

Suppression of antiferromagnetic correlations by dipole-type impurities in lamellar cuprates

In doped lamellar cuprates, localized holes create ferromagnetic bonds and cause spin canting similar to that caused by magnetic dipoles. At low temperatures, these dipoles are frozen, behaving like quenched correlated random fields. Renormalization group methods are used to show that such impurities cause a strong reduction of the two-dimensional antiferromagnetic correlations in the non-linear $σ$ model, and a related decrease in the three dimensional Néel temperature, in quantitative agreement with experiments.
