An End-to-end Architecture for Collider Physics and Beyond

Shi Qiu, Zeyu Cai, Jiashen Wei, Zeyu Li, Yixuan Yin, Qing-Hong Cao, Chang Liu, Ming-xing Luo, Xing-Bo Yuan, Hua Xing Zhu

Abstract

We present, to our knowledge, the first language-driven agent system capable of executing end-to-end collider phenomenology tasks, instantiated within a decoupled, domain-agnostic architecture for autonomous High-Energy Physics phenomenology. Guided only by natural-language prompts supplemented with standard physics notation, ColliderAgent carries out workflows from a theoretical Lagrangian to final phenomenological outputs without relying on package-specific code. In this framework, a hierarchical multi-agent reasoning layer is coupled to Magnus, a unified execution backend for phenomenological calculations and simulation toolchains. We validate the system on representative literature reproductions spanning leptoquark and axion-like-particle scenarios, higher-dimensional effective operators, parton-level and detector-level analyses, and large-scale parameter scans leading to exclusion limits. These results point to a route toward more automated, scalable, and reproducible research in collider physics, cosmology, and physics more broadly.

  • Figure 1: Decoupled architecture of ColliderAgent. A hierarchical cognitive reasoning engine assigns phenomenological tasks to specialized sub-agents equipped with dedicated Agent Skills, which communicate through a standardized CLI with Magnus, the unified execution backend hosting the underlying HEP tools. The framework translates natural-language input and standard physics notation into final phenomenological outputs such as kinematic distributions and exclusion limits.

(b) Normalized missing transverse energy distribution for $pp \to a W^\pm \gamma$ with $W^\pm \to \ell^\pm \nu$ at the LHC in the ALP EFT. (c) Expected $2\,\sigma$ exclusion contours for a $Z^\prime$ model from Drell-Yan production at the LHC. (d) $2\,\sigma$ exclusion contour for the $U_1$ LQ from the LHC mono-$\tau$ search.

(c) Cross section for $e^+e^- \to \mu^+\mu^-$ as a function of $\sqrt{s}$ in the Randall--Sundrum model, showing the resonant structure of the KK graviton tower. (d) 95% CL exclusion and $5\sigma$ discovery contours for the $U_1$ leptoquark benchmark from $\mu^+\mu^- \to b\bar{b}$ at a muon collider. Panels (a)-(d) reproduce Refs.
