This work discusses some areas where parallel computing has already shown benefits to the LHC experiments, and demonstrates how a MPC-based trigger at the CMS experiment could not only improve performance, but also extend the reach of the CMS trigger system to capture events which are currently not practical to reconstruct at the trigger level.

The progress towards an end-to-end track reconstruction algorithm fully exploiting vectorization and parallelization techniques in a realistic experimental environment is reported, with a focus on porting Kalman Filter algorithms to new parallel architectures.
This thesis reports the first experimental investigation into vector boson scattering (VBS) in the the ZZ channel, where both Z bosons are required to decay into electrons or muons and are
The search for BSM physics is one of the primary objectives of the LHC. This thesis describes the αT search for supersymmetry using a dataset of 12.9 fb collected during the 2016 proton-proton runs
We present two searches for supersymmetric particles using proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at √s = 13 TeV. The searches use razor kinematic variables for signal
Two data analyses are presented in this masters thesis. The rst one is a study of the CMS Hadrons Plus Strips (HPS) algorithm, which reconstructs and identi es tau leptons that decay into a tau
This thesis reports the first experimental investigation into vector boson scattering (VBS) in the ZZ channel, where both Z bosons are required to decay into electrons or muons and are accompanied by
