CMS Physics Results in the LHC Runs 2,3

Abstract

The Large hadron Collider at CERN and four scientific collaborations: Alice, ATLAS, CMS, LHCb are in operation since September 2008. The accelerator delivered and the experiments processed trillions of events of proton-proton and heavy ions collisions and provided useful data for thousands of physics analyses and publications. The jewel of the published data is a discovery in 2012 of the long anticipated Higgs boson. During the operation time the regular acquisition of data was interleaved with two periods of maintenance, Long-shutdown-1 (2013-2015) and Long-shutdown-2 (2018-2022), which resulted in several improvements to the machine and the experiments. The CMS collaboration recorded to date two large physics datasets of pp collision data. The first dataset, called Run 2, was recorded between 2015 and 2018 with 140fb-1 of integrated luminosity taken at 13TeV of center of mass energy. The second dataset, called Run 3, has just started in 2022 and it has been recording pp collision data at 13.6 TeV of center of mass energy, with 80 fb-1 of data collected till the end of July 2023.For my presentation I selected the most recent results produced by CMS from Run2 and Run 3 which are covering the topics of Higgs boson properties, searches for new particles and additional scalars, top quark production and properties, and I am discussing other interesting models e.g. using SM particles as portals to the Dark matter.
