Organisation
The French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) is a key player in research, development and innovation in four main areas :
• defence and security,
• nuclear energy (fission and fusion),
• technological research for industry,
• fundamental research in the physical sciences and life sciences.
Drawing on its widely acknowledged expertise, and thanks to its 16000 technicians, engineers, researchers and staff, the CEA actively participates in collaborative projects with a large number of academic and industrial partners.
The CEA is established in ten centers spread throughout France

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO SIMULATE BIG DATA AND SEARCH FOR THE HIGGS BOSON DECAY TO A PAIR OF MUONS WITH THE ATLAS EXPERIMENT AT THE LARGE HADRON COLLIDER

Job description
There is growing interest in new artificial intelligence techniques to manage the massive volume of data collected by particle physics experiments, particularly at the LHC collider. This thesis proposes to study these new techniques for simulating the rare-event background from the two-muon decay of the Higgs boson, as well as to implement a new artificial intelligence method for simulating the response of the muon spectrometer detector resolution, which is crucial for this analysis.
