Abstract

This final report summarizes the key accomplishments of the project entitled “Plasmonics-Enhanced Optical Imaging Systems for Bioenergy Research”. The goal of this project is aimed at developing innovative and improved imaging instrumentation for visualization and quantitative characterization of biomarkers related to molecular processes and cellular function in living plants. This project focused on three specific aims: 1) Development of Advanced Multimodal Optical Sensing And Imaging Combinatory (MOSAIC) System for SERS biosensing and bioimaging. 2) Evaluation of MOSAIC technologies for sensing and imaging gene expression in plant systems using plasmonic nanoprobes. 3) Application of MOSAIC techniques to bioenergy research.

High Multiplicity Trigger for long-lived particles in CMS detector

Searches for long-lived particles (LLPs) at the CMS experiment often involve unconventional event topologies that are difficult to efficiently select using standard trigger strategies. To improve sensitivity to such signatures during LHC Run 3 operation, a dedicated High Multiplicity Trigger (HMT) has been developed and deployed in the CMS trigger system. The trigger targets events containing unusually large numbers of hits in the CMS cathode strip chamber (CSC) muon detectors, a characteristic signature of several LLP scenarios involving displaced decays in the muon system. The HMT implementation, trigger logic, rate dependence with pileup, and operational stability are described. Optimized hit multiplicity thresholds are used to maintain acceptable trigger rates under high-luminosity and high-pileup conditions while preserving high efficiency across a broad range of LLP lifetimes and kinematic regimes. The trigger performance is evaluated using both simulated event samples and proton-proton collision data collected during Run 3 of the LHC. The HMT substantially extends the CMS sensitivity to non-standard signatures associated with LLP decays and provides a flexible platform for future searches for physics beyond the Standard Model.
