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$^{-2}$...
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...
The muon spectrometer of the ATLAS detector will undergo a substantial upgrade during the Phase-II upgrade in Long Shutdown 3 to meet the operational demands of the High- Luminosity LHC. Most of the electronics for the Monitored Drift Tube (MDT) chambers, Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC), and Thin Gap Chambers (TGC) will be replaced to ensure compatibility with the higher trigger rates and...
In the high-luminosity era of the Large Hadron Collider, the instantaneous luminosity is expected to reach unprecedented values, resulting in up to 200 proton-proton interactions in a typical bunch crossing. To cope with the resulting increase in occupancy, bandwidth and radiation damage, the ATLAS Inner Detector will be replaced by an all-silicon system, the Inner Tracker (ITk). The innermost...
The Large Hadron electron Collider is a proposed upgrade of the HL-LHC. It will add an energy recovery racetrack to the CERN accelerator complex. The ERL will provide 50 GeV electrons to collide with the LHC beams, resulting in $ep$ ($eA$) collisions with cms energies $\sim 1.2\ย (0.75)$ย TeV/nucleon and instantaneous luminosities $\sim 10^{34}\ (5\cdot 10^{32}$) cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$. It could be...
A 10 TeV Muon Collider has been proposed as the next energy frontier machine, with expected physics prospects that far surpasses the current knowledge in a large variety of Standard Model measurements and Beyond Standard Model searches. Due to the short lifetime of muons, however, high-energy electrons that interact with shielding elements produce a large amount of beam-induced background...
The High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) at CERN marks a new era for high-energy particle physics, demanding significant upgrades to the ATLAS Trigger and Data Acquisition (TDAQ) system.

This study investigates the deployment...

The Forward Physics Facility (FPF) is a proposed new facility to house several far-forward experiments at the High Luminosity LHC at CERN. The FPF experiments will deetect more than a million neutrinos in the TeV energy range covering all neutrino flavours, as well as search for a host of new particles. The FPF has a broad physics programme covering BSM searches, neutrino physics, and QCD...
In this talk, we present the recent searches for new physics in the electroweak sector of the Standard model containing intact protons measured by the CMS Precision Proton Spectrometer (PPS). With the higher event pileup expected in the high-luminosity upgrade of the LHC, a tighter selection of intact protons under increasingly challenging conditions is required. In this view, the PPS2 project...
A key focus of the physics program at the LHC is the study of head-on proton-proton collisions. However, an important class of physics can be studied for cases where the protons narrowly miss one another and remain intact. In such cases, the electromagnetic fields surrounding the protons can interact producing high-energy photon-photon collisions. Alternatively, interactions mediated by the...
The Tile Calorimeter (TileCal) is a sampling hadronic calorimeter covering the central region of the ATLAS experiment, with steel as absorber and plastic scintillators as active medium. The scintillators are read-out by the wavelength shifting fibres coupled to the photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). The analogue signals from the PMTs are amplified, shaped, digitized by sampling the signal every 25...
