Search for a heavy resonance decaying to a top quark and a vector-like top quark at √s=13 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search is presented for massive spin-1 Z′ resonances decaying to a top quark and a heavy vector-like top quark partner T. The search is based on a 2.6 fb−1 sample of proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. The analysis is optimized for final states in which the T quark decays to a W boson and a bottom quark. The focus is on all-jet final states in which both the W boson and the top quark decay into ...Journal Article -
Search for a light pseudoscalar Higgs boson produced in association with bottom quarks in pp collisions at √s=8 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for a light pseudoscalar Higgs boson (A) produced in association with bottom quarks and decaying into a muon pair is reported. The search uses 19.7 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, collected by the CMS experiment. No signal is observed in the dimuon mass range from 25 to 60 GeV. Upper limits on the cross section times branching fraction, σ(pp→bb¯¯¯A)B(A→μμ), are set.Journal Article -
Search for new physics in the monophoton final state in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search is conducted for new physics in a final state containing a photon and missing transverse momentum in proton-proton collisions at s√=13 TeV. The data collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC correspond to an integrated luminosity of 12.9 fb−1. No deviations are observed relative to the predictions of the standard model. The results are interpreted as exclusion limits on the dark matter production cross sections and parameters ...Journal Article -
Search for heavy neutrinos or third-generation leptoquarks in final states with two hadronically decaying tau leptons and two jets in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for new particles has been conducted using events with two high transverse momentum (pT) τ leptons that decay hadronically, at least two high-pT jets, and missing transverse energy from the τ lepton decays. The analysis is performed using data from proton-proton collisions, collected by the CMS experiment in 2015 at s √ =13 s=13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.1 fb−1. The results are interpreted in two ...Journal Article -

Measurements of differential cross sections for associated production of a W boson and jets in proton-proton collisions at √s = 8 TeV
(2017)Physical Review DDifferential cross sections for a W boson produced in association with jets are measured in a data sample of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV recorded with the CMS detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.6 fb−1. The W bosons are identified through their decay mode W→μν. The cross sections are reported as functions of jet multiplicity, transverse momenta, and the scalar sum of jet transverse ...Journal Article -
Search for Supersymmetry in pp Collisions at √s=13 TeV in the Single-Lepton Final State Using the Sum of Masses of Large-Radius Jets
(2017)Physical Review LettersResults are reported from a search for supersymmetric particles in proton-proton collisions in the final state with a single lepton, multiple jets, including at least one b-tagged jet, and large missing transverse momentum. The search uses a sample of proton-proton collision data at √s=13 TeV recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1. The observed event yields in the signal regions ...Journal Article -
Searches for W' bosons decaying to a top quark and a bottom quark in proton-proton collisions at 13TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsSearches are presented for heavy gauge bosons decaying into a top and a bottom quark in data collected by the CMS experiment at s √ s = 13 TeV that correspond to an integrated luminosity of 2.2 and 2.6 fb−1 in the leptonic and hadronic analyses, respectively. Two final states are analyzed, one containing a single electron, or muon, and missing transverse momentum, and the other containing multiple jets and no electrons or muons. No ...Journal Article -
Measurement of the tt¯ production cross section using events with one lepton and at least one jet in pp collisions at s√ = 13 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA measurement of the tt¯ production cross section at s√=13 TeV is presented using proton-proton collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.2 fb−1, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. Final states with one isolated charged lepton (electron or muon) and at least one jet are selected and categorized according to the accompanying jet multiplicity. From a likelihood fit to the invariant mass distribution of the isolated ...Journal Article
