The LHC is the worlds highest energy proton-proton collider with a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The world's largest machine is currently running at twice its designed luminosity and represents forefront of the energy frontier. The CMS detector is a multipurpose detector that features a 4 Tesla magnet and over a 100 million active channels taking data every 25 ns. It, along with its sister...

In this talk I summarize the current status of the field in lattice QCD. My goal will be to provide an accessible overview. I will emphasize work done at Fermilab and work affecting Fermilab experiments.

The CMS Muon group has proposed the use of Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) technology to maintain an efficient and reliable operation during the High Luminosity phase of the LHC (HL-LHC). This is particularly important to study many physics processes with muons in the final state. The CMS GEM chambers will cover eta region 1.6 to 2.2 of the endcap. We report on the GE1/1 layout and their...

Clustering of charged particle tracks along the beam axis is the first step in reconstructing the positions of proton-proton (p-p) collisions at Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments. In this talk, we formulate this problem for a 2048 qubit D-Wave quantum computer that works by quantum annealing. We show the performance of the quantum annealer on artificial events generated from p-p...
