Sumario: | The CMS experiment at the CERN LHC has been designed with a 2-level trigger system. The Level 1 Trigger (L1) is implemented on custom-designed electronics. The High Level Trigger (HLT) is a streamlined version of the CMS offline reconstruction software running on a computer farm. Being able to identify b-quark jets (b-tagging) at trigger level will play a crucial role during the Run II data taking to ensure the top quark, beyond the Standard Model and Higgs boson physics program of the experiment. It will help to significantly reduce the trigger output rate which will increase due to the higher instantaneous luminosity and higher cross sections at 13 TeV. B-tagging algorithms based on the identification of tracks displaced from the primary proton-proton collision and/or on the reconstruction of secondary vertices have been successfully used during Run I. We will present their design and performance with an emphasis on the dedicated aspects of track and primary vertex reconstruction, as well as the improvements foreseen to meet the challenges of the Run II data taking. |
