In this study, jets containing a J/$\psi$ among their constituents are identified, and the fragmentation function is defined as the longitudinal jet momentum fraction carried by the J/$\psi$ relative to the jet. Its measurement provides insight into quarkonium production, parton-shower dynamics, and their interplay.

The standard model of particle physics has been confirmed by many experiments, but it cannot explain some important phenomena, such as dark matter (DM). Astrophysical observations show that most of the matter in the Universe is made of dark matter, yet its nature is still unknown. If DM interacts with standard model particles, these interactions would involve a new mediator that could be...

We investigate simplified models where a scalar resonance ($\Phi$) produced in association with bottom quarks ($b\bar{b}$) decays into a $Z$ boson accompanied by missing transverse momentum ($p_T^{miss}$). Recent studies in the leptonic channel ($Z \to \ell\ell$) show limited sensitivity for $m_{\Phi} > 1$ TeV due to the low branching ratio ($\text{BR} \approx 6.7\%$). We propose exploiting...
