The High Luminosity upgrade of the LHC (HL-LHC) is foreseen to increase the instantaneous luminosity by a factor of five to seven times the LHC nominal design value. The resulting, unprecedented requirements for background monitoring and luminosity measurement create the need for new high-precision instrumentation at CMS, using radiation hard detector technologies. This contribution presents...

Nuclear forces are capable of keeping together only a certain number of protons and neutrons forming nuclei situated in the chart of nuclides within an area confined to the so called borders of nuclear stability. For the time being these boundaries are known up to Z=13 for nuclei with neutron excess and Z=32 for proton-rich nuclei. The search for stability borders for heavier nuclei and...

Modern practical research in physics, chemistry and biology has shifted in the area of simulations, experimental results’ processing and data mining, thus imposing immense demands on computational resources.
The problem is that due to the heterogeneous nature such resources may have a high variance in their load. So users may wait for weeks until their job is done, even though there is...

The ATLAS experiment at CERN has started the construction of upgrades for the "High Luminosity LHC", with collisions due to start in 2026. In order to deliver an order of magnitude more data than previous LHC runs, 14 TeV protons will collide with an instantaneous luminosity of up to 7.5x10^34 cm^-2s^-1, resulting in much higher pileup and data rates than the current experiment was designed to...

The CMS experiment selects events with a two-level trigger system, the Level-1 (L1) trigger and the High Level trigger (HLT). The HLT is a farm of approximately 30K CPU cores that reduces the rate from 100 kHz to about 1 kHz. The HLT has access to the full detector readout and runs a streamlined version of the offline event reconstruction. In Run 2 the peak instantaneous luminosity reached...

The CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) experiment, at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in CERN explores three different gaseous detector technologies in order to measure and trigger muons: Cathode Strip Chambers (in the forward regions), Drift Tubes (in the central region), and Resistive Plate Chambers (both its central and forward regions). The CMS RPC system provides information to all muon track...

The ATLAS Event Index provides since 2015 a good and reliable service for the initial use cases (mainly event picking) and several additional ones, such as production consistency checks, duplicate event detection and measurements of the overlaps of trigger chains and derivation datasets. LHC Run 3 will see increased data-taking and simulation production rates, with which the current...

Cathode strip chambers (CSCs) are used to detect muons in the endcap region of the CMS detector. The High Luminosity LHC will present particular challenges to the electronics that read out the CSCs: the demands of increased particle flux, longer trigger latency, and increased trigger rate require upgraded electronics boards in the forward region. In particular, both the anode and cathode...

The designing and development of a computing clouds is complex process where numerous factors have to be taken into account. For example, size of planned cloud and potential growth, hardware/software platforms, flexible architecture, security, ease of maintenance. Computing cloud is quite often consisted of several data centers (DC). The DC is considered to be a group of hardware and/or...

The first experiment at the accelerator complex of NICA-Nuclotron BM@N (Baryonic Matter at Nuclotron) is aimed to study interactions of relativistic heavy ion beams with fixed targets. Relativistic heavy ion collisions provide the unique opportunity to investigate the properties of nuclear matter at ultra-high density and temperature. The Nuclotron heavy ion beam energy range is well suited...

The ATLAS physics programme relies on very large samples of simulated events. Most of these samples are produced with GEANT4 which provides a detailed simulation of the ATLAS detector. However, this simulation is time and CPU consuming and the available resources will not allow to keep up the MC production with the luminosity increase foreseen by the LHC. To solve this problem, fast simulation...
