Search for dark matter produced in association with a Higgs boson decaying to a pair of bottom quarks in proton–proton collisions at √s=13Te
(2019)The European Physical Journal CA search for dark matter produced in association with a Higgs boson decaying to a pair of bottom quarks is performed in proton–proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. The analyzed data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb−1. The signal is characterized by a large missing transverse momentum recoiling against a bottom quark–antiquark system that has a large Lorentz ...Journal Article -
Search for Dark Matter Particles Produced in Association with a Top Quark Pair at √s =13 TeV
(2019)Physical Review LettersA search is performed for dark matter particles produced in association with a top quark pair in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC. No significant excess over the standard model expectation is observed. The results are interpreted using simplified models of dark matter production via spin-0 mediators that couple to dark matter ...Journal Article -
Measurement of exclusive Υ photoproduction from protons in p Pb collisions at √sNN=5.02TeV
(2019)The European Physical Journal CThe exclusive photoproduction of Υ(nS) meson states from protons, γp→Υ(nS)p (with n=1,2,3), is studied in ultraperipheral pPb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of sNN−−−√=5.02TeV. The measurement is performed using the Υ(nS)→μ+μ− decay mode, with data collected by the CMS experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 32.6nb−1. Differential cross sections as functions of the Υ(nS) transverse momentum squared ...Journal Article -
Search for new physics in top quark production in dilepton final states in proton-proton collisions at √s=13TeV
(2019)The European Physical Journal CA search for new physics in top quark production is performed in proton-proton collisions at 13TeV. The data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb−1 collected in 2016 with the CMS detector. Events with two opposite-sign isolated leptons (electrons or muons), and b quark jets in the final state are selected. The search is sensitive to new physics in top quark pair production and in single top quark production in association ...Journal Article -
Observation of prompt J/ψ meson elliptic flow in high-multiplicity pPb collisions at √s=8.16 TeV
(2019)Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy PhysicsA measurement of the elliptic flow (v2) of prompt J/Ψ mesons in high-multiplicity pPb collisions is reported using data collected by the CMS experiment at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy √sNN=8.16 TeV. Prompt J/Ψ mesons decaying into two muons are reconstructed in the rapidity region in the nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass frame (Ycm), corresponding to either -2.86 < Ycm < -1.86 or 0.94 < Ycm y 1.94. The average v2 result from the ...Journal Article -
Azimuthal separation in nearly back-to-back jet topologies in inclusive 2- and 3-jet events in pp collisions at √s=13Te
(2019)The European Physical Journal CA measurement for inclusive 2- and 3-jet events of the azimuthal correlation between the two jets with the largest transverse momenta, Δϕ12, is presented. The measurement considers events where the two leading jets are nearly collinear (“back-to-back”) in the transverse plane and is performed for several ranges of the leading jet transverse momentum. Proton-proton collision data collected with the CMS experiment at a center-of-mass energy ...Journal Article -

(2019)Physical Review CAzimuthal correlations of charged particles in xenon-xenon collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of √sNN=5.44 TeV are studied. The data were collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC with a total integrated luminosity of 3.42μb−1. The collective motion of the system formed in the collision is parametrized by a Fourier expansion of the azimuthal particle density distribution. The azimuthal anisotropy coefficients v2, v3, ...Journal Article -

All the models considered suggest a different ...Journal Article
