Measurement of the Zγ production cross section in pp collisions at 8 TeV and search for anomalous triple gauge boson couplings
(2015)Journal of High Energy PhysicsThe cross section for the production of Zγ in proton-proton collisions at 8 TeV is measured based on data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.5 fb−1. Events with an oppositely-charged pair of muons or electrons together with an isolated photon are selected. The differential cross section as a function of the photon transverse momentum is measured inclusively and exclusively, where the ...Journal Article -
Description and performance of track and primary-vertex reconstruction with the CMS tracker akahashi
(2014)Journal of InstrumentationA description is provided of the software algorithms developed for the CMS tracker both for reconstructing charged-particle trajectories in proton-proton interactions and for using the resulting tracks to estimate the positions of the LHC luminous region and individual primary-interaction vertices. Despite the very hostile environment at the LHC, the performance obtained with these algorithms is found to be excellent. For tbar t events ...Journal Article -
Search for ZZ resonances in the 2ℓ2ν final state in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV
(2018)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for heavy resonances decaying to a pair of Z bosons is performed using data collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. Events are selected by requiring two oppositely charged leptons (electrons or muons), consistent with the decay of a Z boson, and large missing transverse momentum, which is interpreted as arising from the decay of a second Z boson to two neutrinos. The analysis uses data from proton-proton collisions at a ...Journal Article -
Pseudorapidity distributions of charged hadrons in proton-lead collisions at √sNN=5.02 and 8.16 TeV
(2018)Journal of High Energy PhysicsThe pseudorapidity distributions of charged hadrons in proton-lead collisions at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies sNN−−−√=5.02 and 8.16 TeV are presented. The measurements are based on data samples collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The number of primary charged hadrons produced in non-single-diffractive proton-lead collisions is determined in the pseudorapidity range |ηlab| < 2.4. The charged-hadron multiplicity distributions ...Journal Article -
Search for WWγ and WZγ production and constraints on anomalous quartic gauge couplings in pp collisions at √s=8 TeV
(2014)Physical Review DA search for WVγ triple vector boson production is presented based on events containing a W boson decaying to a muon or an electron and a neutrino, a second V (W or Z) boson, and a photon. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.3 fb−1 collected in 2012 with the CMS detector at the LHC in pp collisions at √s=8 TeV. An upper limit of 311 fb on the cross section for the WVγ production process is obtained at 95% confidence ...Journal Article -
Search for massive resonances decaying into pairs of boosted bosons in semi-leptonic final states at √s = 8 TeV
(2014)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for new resonances decaying to WW, ZZ, or WZ is presented. Final states are considered in which one of the vector bosons decays leptonically and the other hadronically. Results are based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb−1 recorded in proton-proton collisions at s√ = 8 TeV with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. Techniques aiming at identifying jet substructures are used to analyze signal events in which ...Journal Article -
