    Electroweak Physics and Beyond the Standard Model

    The top-quark pair production in association with heavy-flavour jets (b/c) is a difficult process to calculate and model and is one of the leading sources of background to ttH and 4tops in 1l/2LOS channel. To improve our understanding of this process, a new inclusive and differential measurement of this process was performed.

    While the on-going Run-3 data-taking campaign will provide twice the integrated proton-proton luminosity currently available at the LHC, most of the data expected for the full LHC physics program will only be delivered during the HL-LHC phase. For this, the LHC will undergo an ambitious upgrade program to be able to deliver an instantaneous luminosity of $7.5\times 10^{34}$ cm$^{-2}$...

    A key open question in the study of multi-particle production in high-energy collisions is the relationship between the ``ridge'' - observed azimuthal correlations between particles in the underlying event that extend over all rapidities and hard or semi-hard scattering processes.

    Physicists anticipate that new physics phenomena will be discovered and/or confirmed during the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) program. The primary argument is that the instantaneous luminosity will increase to 5-7.5 x 10^34 cm-2 s-1, approximately ten times the expected integrated luminosity of the LHC. This high-rate environment presents new challenges for the muon system of...

    Approximately fifty years ago, the polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons produced in unpolarized proton-beryllium collisions was discovered, though the origin of this phenomenon remains elusive.

    We present the most recent studies of anomalous couplings of the Higgs boson and its CP structure at the CMS experiment. These studies probe BSM effects, such as CP conserving or CP violating couplings to particles with masses not directly accessible at the LHC through virtual quantum loops. Results in the context of effective field theories (EFT) will also be presented.
