Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLucas Torterotot is a physics professor and agrégé with a PhD in particle physics from Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1 and training at ENS de Lyon, combining a decade of teaching experience in French prépas and lycées with hands-on research at CERN and IP2I. He contributed to CMS analysis software — notably improving electron identification in the widely used CERN CMG tools — bringing production-grade back-end coding experience to scientific workflows. Based in Besançon, he balances rigorous pedagogy (PCSI and CPGE colles) with practical computational skills acquired during three years working with the CMS collaboration. His profile blends deep experimental physics knowledge, proven software contributions to high-energy physics toolchains, and a talent for translating complex research methods into classroom practice.

Contributions summary:Lucas's contributions primarily involve modifications and improvements to electron identification within the context of the CERN CMG Tools repository. They updated the `ElectronMVAID.py` file, integrated new Egamma code, refactored the `Electron.py` file, and added support for cut-based electron IDs. The changes include adaptations to new estimators and modifications of working points and related dictionaries. These changes aim to enhance electron identification for physics analysis.
