Performance of missing transverse momentum reconstruction in proton-proton collisions at root s=13 TeV using the CMS detector
(2019)Journal of InstrumentationThe performance of missing transverse momentum (vec pTmiss) reconstruction algorithms for the CMS experiment is presented, using proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected at the CERN LHC in 2016. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb-1. The results include measurements of the scale and resolution of vec pTmiss, and detailed studies of events identified with anomalous vec pTmiss. ...Journal Article -
Search for a Light Charged Higgs Boson Decaying to a W Boson and a CP -Odd Higgs Boson in Final States with eμμ or μμμ in Proton-Proton Collisions at s =13 TeV
(2019)Physical Review LettersA search for a light charged Higgs boson (H+) decaying to a W boson and a CP-odd Higgs boson (A) in final states with eμμ or μμμ is performed using data from pp collisions at √s=13 TeV, recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1. In this search, it is assumed that the H+ boson is produced in decays of top quarks, and the A boson decays to two oppositely charged muons. The presence ...Journal Article -
Search for supersymmetry with a compressed mass spectrum in the vector boson fusion topology with 1-lepton and 0-lepton final states in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(2019)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for supersymmetric particles produced in the vector boson fusion topology in proton-proton collisions is presented. The search targets final states with one or zero leptons, large missing transverse momentum, and two jets with a large separation in rapidity. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at s√ = 13 TeV collected in 2016 with the CMS detector at the LHC. The observed ...Journal Article -

Search for dark photons in decays of Higgs bosons produced in association with Z bosons in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(2019)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search is presented for a Higgs boson that is produced in association with a Z boson and that decays to an undetected particle together with an isolated photon. The search is performed by the CMS Collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb−1 recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. No significant excess of events above the expectation from the standard model ...Journal Article -

(2019)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for new massive particles decaying into a pair of Higgs bosons in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV is presented. Data were collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1. The search is performed for resonances with a mass between 0.8 and 3.5 TeV using events in which one Higgs boson decays into a bottom quark pair and the other decays into two W ...Journal Article -
Search for supersymmetry in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV in final states with jets and missing transverse momentum
(2019)Journal of High Energy PhysicsResults are reported from a search for supersymmetric particles in the final state with multiple jets and large missing transverse momentum. The search uses a sample of proton-proton collisions at s√ = 13 TeV collected with the CMS detector in 2016–2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb−1, representing essentially the full LHC Run 2 data sample. The analysis is performed in a four-dimensional search region defined in ...Journal Article -
Measurements of the pp → WZ inclusive and differential production cross sections and constraints on charged anomalous triple gauge couplings at √s = 13 TeV
(2019)Journal of High Energy PhysicsThe WZ production cross section is measured in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy s√ = 13 TeV using data collected with the CMS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1. The inclusive cross section is measured to be σtot(pp → WZ) = 48.09 − 0.96 + 1.00 (stat) − 0.37 + 0.44 (theo) − 2.17 + 2.39 (syst) ± 1.39(lum) pb, resulting in a total uncertainty of −2.78/+2.98 pb. Fiducial cross section and ratios ...Journal Article -
Search for Low-Mass Quark-Antiquark Resonances Produced in Association with a Photon at s =13 TeV
(2019)Physical Review LettersA search for narrow low-mass resonances decaying to quark-antiquark pairs is presented. The search is based on proton-proton collision events collected at 13 TeV by the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1, recorded in 2016. The search considers the case where the resonance has high transverse momentum due to initial-state radiation of a hard photon. To study this process, the ...Journal Article -
Combinations of single-top-quark production cross-section measurements and |fLVVtb| determinations at s√ = 7 and 8 TeV with the ATLAS and CMS experiments (GD, RW, CG, LS)
