Measurement of differential ttˉ production cross sections in the full kinematic range using lepton+jets events from proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(2021)Physical Review DMeasurements of differential and double-differential cross sections of top-quark pair (t (t) over bar) production arc presented in the lepton + jets channels with a single electron or muon and jets in the final state. The analysis combines for the first time signatures of top quarks with low transverse momentum p(T), where the top-quark decay products can be identified as separated jets and isolated leptons, and with high p(T), where the ...Journal Article -
Search for a light charged Higgs boson in the H±→cs channel in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(2020)Physical Review DA search is conducted for a low-mass charged Higgs boson produced in a top quark decay and subsequently decaying into a charm and a strange quark. The data sample was recorded in proton-proton collisions at root s = 13 TeV by the CMS experiment at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). The search is performed in the process of top quark pair production, where one top quark decays to a bottom quark and a charged ...Journal Article -
Measurements of angular distance and momentum ratio distributions in three-jet and Z + two-jet final states in pp collisions
(2021)The European Physical Journal CCollinear (small-angle) and large-angle, as well as soft and hard radiations are investigated in three-jet and Z + two-jet events collected in proton-proton collisions at the LHC. The normalized production cross sections are measured as a function of the ratio of transverse momenta of two jets and their angular separation. The measurements in the three-jet and Z + two-jet events are based on data collected at a center-of-mass energy of ...Journal Article -
Search for new physics in dijet angular distributions using proton–proton collisions at √s=13TeV and constraints on dark matter and other models
(2018)The European Physical Journal CA search is presented for physics beyond the standard model, based on measurements of dijet angular distributions in proton–proton collisions at √s=13TeV. The data collected with the CMS detector at the LHC correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb−1. The observed distributions, corrected to particle level, are found to be in agreement with predictions from perturbative quantum chromodynamics that include electroweak corrections. ...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 Flavor-Changing Neutral Currents in Top-Quark Decays t→Zq in pp Collisions at √s = 8 TeV
(2014)Physical Review LettersA search for flavor-changing neutral currents in top-quark decays t → Zq is performed in events produced from the decay chain t¯t → Zq + Wb, where both vector bosons decay leptonically, producing a final state with three leptons (electrons or muons). A data set collected with the CMS detector at the LHC is used, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. No excess ...Journal Article -
Search for Top-Quark Partners with Charge 5/3 in the Same-Sign Dilepton Final State
(2014)Physical Review LettersA search for the production of heavy partners of the top quark with charge 5/3 is performed in events with a pair of same-sign leptons. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 19.5fb−1 and was collected at √s = 8 TeV by the CMS experiment. No significant excess is observed in the data above the expected background, and the existence of top-quark partners with masses below 800 GeV is excluded at a 95% confidence level, ...Journal Article -
