Alpha_s measurements with the CMS experiment
Hadronic object reconstruction & classification is one of the most promising settings for cutting-edge machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms at the LHC. In this contribution, highlights of ML/AI applications by ATLAS to QCD and boosted-object identification, MET reconstruction and other tasks will be presented.

Exploring new physics in the Dark Sector at CMS
Among the intriguing scenarios of new physics that provide explanation to several shortcomings of the Standard Model (SM), hidden valley scenarios include a Dark Sector that extends the SM with a non-Abelian gauge group, similar to quantum chromodynamics with new matter and gauge fields analogous to the SM quark and gluon fields. This may...
Jet performance and pileup mitigation in Run3 in CMS
Every bunch crossing at the LHC causes not just one proton-proton interaction, but several which are called "pileup". With the increasing luminosity of the LHC the number of pileup interactions per bunch crossing increases and it will reach up to 200 during high-luminosity LHC operation. Removing the pileup from an event is essential,...
Production of multiple jets or vector bosons plus jets at the LHC offers the main, and unprecedented opportunity to study QCD at the high-energy regime. As precision advances, attention has been brought up to study further topics sensitive to understanding of QCD: different topological configurations between vector bosons and jets, the jet substructure information, and the heavy-flavor...
Measurements of the Lund jet plane density in CMS
We present new experimental results in multi-boson physics which demonstrate the presence of new forces of nature, and also fully characterize a single particle dark matter candidate that simultaneously accounts for the dark matter density of the universe and provides a CP violation mechanism which accounts for the observed matter-antimatter asymmetry.
The precision and reach of physics analyses at the LHC is often tied to the performance of hadronic object reconstruction & calibration, with any incremental gains in understanding & reduced uncertainties being impactful on ATLAS results. Recent refinements to the reconstruction and calibration procedures for jets & missing energy by the ATLAS collaboration has resulted in reduced...

Recent results on heavy resonances at CMS
Many theories beyond the Standard Model (SM) predict new physics phenomena that decay hadronically to dijet or multijet final states. This talk summarises the latest results from the ATLAS detector using the Run-2 dataset, involving these final states.
Many theories beyond the Standard Model (SM) predict new physics phenomena that decay to photons, jets or missing energy. This talk summarises the latest results from the ATLAS detector using the Run-2 dataset, involving these final states. A number of sensitive kinematics are explored, including the invariant mass and angular distributions.
Searches in CMS for new physics in final states with jets
Many new physics models such as compositeness, extra dimensions, extended Higgs sectors, supersymmetric theories, and dark sector extensions, are expected to manifest themselves in the final states with hadronic jets. This talk presents searches in CMS for new phenomena in the final states that include jets, focusing on the recent...
Soft QCD measurements, diffractive and exclusive processes with CMS data
Despite the success of perturbative QCD predictions at the high-energy regime, QCD itself remains mysterious at its nominal scale (QCD scale). The LHC offers rich opportunities to probe the core of QCD related questions, by studying minibias events, double parton interactions, small-x and diffractive processes, as well as correlations in hadronization processes. This talk will summarize recent...
