Abstract

A multichannel angular spectrometer includes an array of fiber pickups having an arcuate arrangement and focused about a sample volume. A broadband light source is configured to illuminate a sample within the sample volume. At least one dispersion element is in optical communication with the array of fiber pickups. An imaging sensor is in optical communication with the array of fiber pickups. The imaging sensor is configured to image the broadband light received by the array of fiber pickups and dispersed by the at least one dispersion element. A processor is in electrical communication with the imaging sensor. The processor has a power supply and computer-readable memory.

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.
