Recent Experience with the CMS Data Management System / Ozturk, Hasan (CERN) ; Paparrigopoulos, Panos (CERN) ; Manrique Ardila, Andres (Wisconsin U., Madison) ; Chauhan, Rahul (Wisconsin U., Madison) ; Ellis, Katy (Rutherford) ; Emmanouil, Christos (CERN) ; Kovalskyi, Dmytro (MIT) ; Vaandering, Eric Wayne (Fermilab) ; Voetberg, Margaret Grace (Fermilab) ; Wightman, Andrew Steven (Nebraska U.) /CMS Collaboration
The CMS experiment manages a large-scale data infrastructure, currently handling over 200 PB of disk and 500 PB of tape storage and transferring more than 1 PB of data per day on average between various WLCG sites. Utilizing Rucio for high-level data management, FTS for data transfers, and a variety of storage and network technologies at the sites, CMS confronts inevitable challenges due to the system's growing scale and evolving nature.

CMS High Level Trigger(HLT) performance in Run 3 / Maity, Dipak (Bhubaneswar, NISER) /CMS Collaboration
The CMS experiment at CERN operates a two-stage trigger system to efficiently filter and record events of potential physics interest. The system consists of a hardware-based Level 1 (L1) trigger, which processes detector data at 40 MHz using fast electronics such as FPGAs and ASICs, reducing the data rate to around 110 kHz. [...]

Measurement of W+W production cross-section at 13.6 TeV with the CMS experiment / Phor, Saumya (Delhi U.) /CMS Collaboration
The first measurements of W+W production cross section in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13.6 TeV are presented. The data used were recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC in 2022, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 34.8 fb1. The events are selected by requiring one electron and one muon of opposite charge. The total inclusive W+W cross section is measured to be 125.7±5.6~pb, consistent with the standard model predictions. Fiducial cross sections are also reported as a function of the jet multiplicity in the event and compared with different theoretical predictions..

Experience with the alpaka performance portability library in the CMS software / ius ; ejdl
To achieve better computational efficiency and exploit a wider range of computing resources, the CMS software framework (CMSSW) has been extended to offload part of the physics reconstruction to NVIDIA GPUs. To support additional back-ends, as well to avoid the need to write, validate and maintain a separate implementation of the reconstruction algorithms for each back-end, CMS has adopted the Alpaka performance portability library. Alpaka (Abstraction Library for Parallel Kernel Acceleration) is a header-only C++ library that provides performance portability across different back-ends, abstracting the underlying levels of parallelism.

Dead cone effect and charm quark mass effects in high-pT D-jets with the CMS experiment / Mijuskovic, Jelena (INFN, Rome ; Rome U.) /CMS Collaboration
The mass of heavy quarks modifies the radiation pattern of heavy-quark jets in comparison to their light quark counterparts, since the heavy quark mass effectively regularizes the soft and collinear divergences that would normally dominate the partonic cascade formation. This leads to the depletion of collinear gluon emissions relative to the heavy quark, an effect known as the dead cone effect. [...]

Probing global symmetries with top and Higgs at CMS / Chanon, Nicolas Pierre (IP2I, Lyon) /CMS Collaboration
Several global symmetries of the Standard Model Lorentz invariance, CPT and CP symmetries are tested with top quarks and Higgs bosons using LHC data collected with the CMS detector. Top-antitop (tˉt) production is used to probe CPT symmetry and Lorentz invariance. [...]

Constraining the color-charge effects of energy loss with jet axis-based substructure studies in PbPb collisions at 5.02 TeV / Pradhan, Raghunath (Illinois U., Chicago) /CMS Collaboration
This study investigates jet axis decorrelation in inclusive jets using lead-lead (PbPb) collisions at a nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV. The decorrelation is defined as the angular difference between two jet axis definitions, obtained by applying different recombination schemes to the constituents of jets reconstructed with the anti-kT sequential algorithm and a distance parameter of R=0.4.

Probing bottom quark mass effects in jet substructure with CMS using a novel technique to cluster the b-hadron decays / Kalipoliti, Lida (Ecole Polytechnique) /CMS Collaboration
The study of jet substructure has given rise to a new era of precision quantum-chromodynamics (QCD) measurements related to the evolution of the parton shower. In order to better understand the role of the quark mass, the decay kinematics of the heavy flavor hadrons need to be isolated from the QCD branchings. [...]

Kalman filter for muon reconstruction in the CMS Phase-2 endcap calorimeter / Matthewman, Mark (Purdue U.) ; Rovere, Marco (CERN) ; Waltenberger, Wolfgang (Vienna, OAW) ; Brondolin, Erica (CERN) /CMS Collaboration
The High Luminosity phase of the LHC (HL-LHC) will offer a greatly increased number of events for more precise standard model measurements and BSM searches. To cope with the harsh environment created by numerous simultaneous proton-proton collisions, the CMS Collaboration has begun construction of a new endcap calorimeter, the High-Granularity Calorimeters (HGCAL).
