Description
Particle flow is an elegant reconstruction technique with the potential to dramatically improve the accuracy of the CMS experiment for the detection of jets, tau jets, b jets and missing transverse energy, which are the essential probes of many Physics channels at the LHC. After a didactic introduction to the principles of particle flow and a presentation of the current performances of this reconstruction method, I will discuss a few hot topics in more detail, and present some of the challenges that we still face to make particle flow a success in CMS.
