The Overlap Muon Track Finder (OMTF) is a key subsystem of the CMS L1 Trigger, and for the CMS phase-2 upgrade during the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider era, a new version of the OMTF is being developed. This upgraded version, implemented on a custom ATCA board with a Xilinx UltraScale+ FPGA and 25 Gbps optical transceivers, focuses on improving the muon trigger algorithm and input data...
In view of the upcoming high-luminosity operations of the LHC (HL-LHC), significant upgrades in the CMS trigger system are foreseen to maintain high physics selectivity with finer granularity and more robust readout electronics. The present Drift Tube (DT) on detector electronics will be replaced by new readout boards which will perform the time digitisation of the signals inside...
Phase-2 CMS upgrade will replace the trigger and data acquisition system in preparation for the HL-LHC. This upgrade will allow a maximum accept rate of 750kHz and a latency of 12.5us. To achieve this, new electronics and firmware are being designed with an expectation of significantly improving the physics reach of the current system.
In this talk we describe the first version of an...
Particle Identification (PID) is crucial for all analysis at LHCb. The PID machinery at this experiment includes both hardware and software resources to distinguish between electrons, kaons, pions, muons and protons. A key part in particle identification is the estimation of the efficiencies of PID selection criteria through data-driven methods. For that, the tool PIDCalib (Particle...
