Prospects for Higgs Boson Measurements and Beyond Standard Model Physics at the High-Luminosity LHC with CMS

Abstract

The High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) is a major upgrade of the LHC, expected to deliver an integrated luminosity of up to 3000/fb over one decade. The very high instantaneous luminosity will lead to about 200 proton-proton collisions per bunch crossing (pileup) superimposed to each event of interest, therefore providing extremely challenging experimental conditions. The scientific goals of the HL-LHC physics program include precise measurement of the properties of the recently discovered standard model Higgs boson and searches for beyond the standard model physics (heavy vector bosons, SUSY, dark matter and exotic long-lived signatures, to name a few). In this contribution we will present the strategy of the CMS experiment to investigate the feasibility of such search and quantify the increase of sensitivity in the HL-LHC scenario.
