Description
Long-lived particles are predicted in many extensions beyond the standard model. They often have unique signatures in the detector. A particularly interesting model considers long-lived particles decaying hadronically just in front of or inside the CMS muon system. These particles are capable of producing large shower of hits in the muon chambers. Due to bandwidth limitations the current muon trigger is not equipped to detect such showers. We present studies aimed to upgrade the muon system in advance of Run-3 to trigger on muon showers.
