Search for resonances decaying to three W bosons in the hadronic final state in proton-proton collisions at ps=13 TeV
(2022)Physical Review DA search for Kaluza-Klein excited vector boson resonances, WKK, decaying in cascade to three W bosons via a scalar radion R, WKK → WR → WWW, in a final state containing two or three massive jets is presented. The search is performed with ffiffi s p ¼ 13 TeV proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC during 2016–2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb−1. Two final states are simultaneously ...Journal Article -
Search for resonant production of strongly coupled dark matter in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV
(2022)Journal of High Energy PhysicsThe first collider search for dark matter arising from a strongly coupled hidden sector is presented and uses a data sample corresponding to 138 fb−1, collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC, at s = 13 TeV. The hidden sector is hypothesized to couple to the standard model (SM) via a heavy leptophobic Z′ mediator produced as a resonance in proton-proton collisions. The mediator decay results in two “semivisible” jets, containing ...Journal Article
