Particle physics seeks to describe how the basic building blocks of matter interact to form the world we observe. The particles and forces observed in the last century of experiments are united into a single theory by the Standard Model (SM). In its current form, however, the SM conflicts with measurements of the universe at larger length scales. For example, it does not explain the nature of dark matter observed in galaxies. These disagreements suggest the SM is only part of a larger theory with other particles and forces that have not been discovered yet. The High Energy Physics Group at the University of Notre Dame, as a member of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, is searching for signs of physics beyond the Standard Model in the proton-proton collisions at the LHC. The group's work includes searches for direct evidence of new physics, work on upgrades to the CMS detector, and a strong educational outreach initiative. As the LHC finishes its third run of data-taking, the Notre Dame group continues its leading role in physics analyses. The group is involved in multiple searches for exotic behavior in the Higgs sector, searches for supersymmetry, and is pioneering techniques in both effective field theory and data scouting. The group’s technical contributions are broad, including: electromagnetic calorimeter operations and management of the U.S. contributions; leadership in High Level Trigger monitoring; leadership in t
