13:55 Trigger performance challenges in Run2

1 talk but 2 speakers, one from each experiment. The talk should be prepared and given by the two speakers, and cover the challenges set by the Run2 conditions, i.e. larger lumi, larger PU and larger center of mass energy, on our triggering capabilities on (i) leptons; (ii) hadronic final states and missing ET. The presentation should also address how we face these aspects with the pre-LS2 trigger systems (includes L1 and higher-level trigger, as well as readiness for the restart)

Speakers: Andrea Bocci (CERN), Joerg Stelzer (CERN)

A critical review of the lessons learned in Run 1 of the LHC from all the searches for exotic particles and models. In particular focus should be given on the best strategy that can be derived for analysis of the first data of the Run II at 13 TeV. Expectation for discovery reach (or extensions of exclusion limits) with the Run 2 data of the LHC and extrapolation to the HL-LHC should be included as well
