The Effective Field Theory (EFT) framework allows searching for beyond the SM (BSM) effects in a model independent way. CMS experiment is pioneering EFT measurements that move towards using full potential of the data in the most global way possible. Searches for flavour-changing neutral currents (FCNC) and anomalous top quark interactions are also being pursued in CMS which are complementary to the EFT approach. This talk reviews the current limits on FCNC searches in the top sector, and EFT interpretations.","PeriodicalId":20428,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 40th International Conference on High Energy physics — PoS(ICHEP2020)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77216189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For example, the top quark pair production process in the all-jets final state has six jets initiated from daughter partons and additional jets from initial or final state radiation. Due to the many possible permutations, it is very hard to assign jets to partons. We use a deep neural network with an attention-based architecture together with a new objective function for the jet-parton assignment problem. Our novel deep learning model and the physics-inspired objective function enable jet-parton assignment using jet-wise input variables while the attention mechanism bypasses the combinatorial explosion that usually leads to intractable computational requirements. The model can also be applied as a classifier to reject the overwhelming QCD background, showing increased performance over standard classification methods.","PeriodicalId":20428,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 40th International Conference on High Energy physics — PoS(ICHEP2020)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83529396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Tile Calorimeter (TileCal), the central hadronic calorimeter of the ATLAS experiment, and the ATLAS Inner Detector (ID) play an important role due to their luminosity measurements being independent of pileup. Comparison of the LUCID luminosity measurements in different run conditions to those obtained by TileCal and ID, as well as a comparison of TileCal to ID, is used to measure and study the dominant systematic uncertainty associated with the LUCID luminosity measurement. In this document the methods of measuring ATLAS luminosity with the Tile Calorimeter and its transformation to a systematic uncertainty are described.","PeriodicalId":20428,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 40th International Conference on High Energy physics — PoS(ICHEP2020)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91503266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
