Measurement of the mass difference between top quark and antiquark in pp collisions at √s = 8 TeV
(2017)Physics Letter BThe invariance of the standard model (SM) under the CPT transformation predicts equality of particle and antiparticle masses. This prediction is tested by measuring the mass difference between the top quark and antiquark (Δmt=mt−mt) that are produced in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8TeV, using events with a muon or an electron and at least four jets in the final state. The analysis is based on data corresponding to an ...Journal Article -
Measurement of the cross section ratio σtt¯bb¯/σtt¯jj in pp collisions at √s=8 TeV
(2015)Physics Letters BThe first measurement of the cross section ratio σtt¯bb¯/σtt¯jj is presented using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.6 fb−1 collected in pp collisions at s=8 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC. Events with two leptons (e or μ) and four reconstructed jets, including two identified as b quark jets, in the final state are selected. The ratio is determined for a minimum jet transverse momentum pT of both 20 and ...Journal Article -

Search for dark matter, extra dimensions, and unparticles in monojet events in proton–proton collisions at √s = 8TeV
(2015)The European Physical Journal CResults are presented from a search for particle dark matter (DM), extra dimensions, and unparticles using events containing a jet and an imbalance in transverse momentum. The data were collected by the CMS detector in proton–proton collisions at the LHC and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.7fb-1at a centre-of-mass energy of 8TeV. The number of observed events is found to be consistent with the standard model prediction. Limits ...Journal Article -
Search for physics beyond the standard model in final states with a lepton and missing transverse energy in proton-proton collisions at √s = 8 TeV
(2015)Physical Review DA search for new physics in proton-proton collisions having final states with an electron or muon and missing transverse energy is presented. The analysis uses data collected in 2012 with the CMS detector, at an LHC center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb−1. No significant deviation of the transverse mass distribution of the charged lepton-neutrino system from the standard model prediction ...Journal Article -
Study of Z production in PbPb and pp collisions at √sNN = 2.76 TeV in the dimuon and dielectron decay channels
(2015)Journal of High Energy PhysicsThe production of Z bosons is studied in the dimuon and dielectron decay channels in PbPb and pp collisions at sNN−−−−√=2.76 TeV, using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The PbPb data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of about 166 μb−1, while the pp data sample collected in 2013 at the same nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy has an integrated luminosity of 5.4 pb−1. The Z boson yield is measured as a function ...Journal Article -

Search for Monotop Signatures in Proton-Proton Collisions at √s=8 TeV
(2015)Physical Review LettersResults are presented from a search for new decaying massive particles whose presence is inferred from an imbalance in transverse momentum and which are produced in association with a single top quark that decays into a bottom quark and two light quarks. The measurement is performed using 19.7 fb−1 of data from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. No deviations ...Journal Article -
Measurement of electroweak production of two jets in association with a Z boson in proton–proton collisions at √s=8TeV
(2015)The European Physical Journal CThe purely electroweak (EW) cross section for the production of two jets in association with a Z boson, in proton–proton collisions at s√=8TeV, is measured using data recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7fb-1. The electroweak cross section for the ℓℓjj final state (with ℓ=e or μ and j representing the quarks produced in the hard interaction) in the kinematic region defined by ...Journal Article -
Differential cross section measurements for the production of a W boson in association with jets in proton–proton collisions at √s = 7TeV
(2015)Physical Letters BMeasurements are reported of differential cross sections for the production of a W boson, which decays into a muon and a neutrino, in association with jets, as a function of several variables, including the transverse momenta (pT) and pseudorapidities of the four leading jets, the scalar sum of jet transverse momenta (HT), and the difference in azimuthal angle between the directions of each jet and the muon. The data sample of pp collisions ...Journal Article
