Physics Objects in CMS Run 3

Abstract

In these proceedings we review the physics objects used by the CMS experiment during LHC Run 3 at 13.6 TeV, including charged leptons, photons, jets, and missing transverse momentum. Their performance and calibration is critical for physics analysis. In particular, the algorithms need to be resilient against the high pileup conditions in Run 3 collisions. Furthermore, transformer-based algorithms are deployed for the identification of heavy-flavor jets and boosted resonances.
