A long time ago in a pp collision far, far away: Searching for displaced vertices at CMS

Abstract: Many BSM models predict new long-lived particles that could be produced at the LHC and travel measurable distances before decaying. This talk will focus on a set of low-background searches for long-lived particles using the LHC Run 2 dataset that aim to reconstruct decay vertices inside the CMS beam pipe using charged particle tracks, along with potential future extensions.
