Search for supersymmetry in events with at least one photon, missing transverse momentum, and large transverse event activity in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for physics beyond the standard model in final states with at least one photon, large transverse momentum imbalance, and large total transverse event activity is presented. Such topologies can be produced in gauge-mediated supersymmetry models in which pair-produced gluinos or squarks decay to photons and gravitinos via short-lived neutralinos. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 of proton-proton ...Journal Article -
Search for electroweak production of charginos and neutralinos in WH events in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsResults are reported from a search for physics beyond the standard model in proton-proton collision events with a charged lepton (electron or muon), two jets identified as originating from a bottom quark decay, and significant imbalance in the transverse momentum. The search was performed using a data sample corresponding to 35.9 fb−1, collected by the CMS experiment in 2016 at s√=13 TeV. Events with this signature can arise, for example, ...Journal Article -
Search for pair production of vector-like T and B quarks in single-lepton final states using boosted jet substructure in proton-proton collisions at s√=13 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for pair production of massive vector-like T and B quarks in proton-proton collisions at s√=13 TeV is presented. The data set was collected in 2015 by the CMS experiment at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of up to 2.6 fb−1. The T and B quarks are assumed to decay through three possible channels into a heavy boson (either a W, Z or Higgs boson) and a third generation quark. This search is performed in final ...Journal Article -
Search for new phenomena with the MT2 variable in the all-hadronic final state produced in proton–proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(2017)The European Physical Journal CA search for new phenomena is performed using events with jets and significant transverse momentum imbalance, as inferred through the MT2 variable. The results are based on a sample of proton–proton collisions collected in 2016 at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV with the CMS detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb-1. No excess event yield is observed above the predicted standard model background, and the results ...Journal Article -
Measurement of the differential cross sections for the associated production of a W boson and jets in proton-proton collisions at s√=13 TeV
(2017)Physical Review DA measurement of the differential cross sections for a W boson produced in association with jets in the muon decay channel is presented. The measurement is based on 13 TeV proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.2 fb−1, recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC. The cross sections are reported as functions of jet multiplicity, jet transverse momentum pT, jet rapidity, the scalar pT sum of the jets, and ...Journal Article -
Search for direct production of supersymmetric partners of the top quark in the all-jets final state in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for direct production of top squark pairs in events with jets and large transverse momentum imbalance is presented. The data are based on proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector in 2016 at the CERN LHC, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1. The search considers a variety of R-parity conserving supersymmetric models, including ones for which the top squark ...Journal Article -
Search for top squark pair production in pp collisions at √s=13 TeV using single lepton events
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for top squark pair production in pp collisions at √s=13 TeV is performed using events with a single isolated electron or muon, jets, and a large transverse momentum imbalance. The results are based on data collected in 2016 with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1. No significant excess of events is observed above the expectation from standard model processes. Exclusion limits are ...Journal Article -

(2017)Physical Review LettersResults are reported from a search for supersymmetric particles in proton-proton collisions in the final state with a single lepton, multiple jets, including at least one b-tagged jet, and large missing transverse momentum. The search uses a sample of proton-proton collision data at √s=13 TeV recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1.

Search for Low Mass Vector Resonances Decaying to Quark-Antiquark Pairs in Proton-Proton Collisions at √s=13 TeV
(2017)Physical Review LettersA search is reported for a narrow vector resonance decaying to quark-antiquark pairs in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 2.7 fb−1. The vector resonance is produced at large transverse momenta, with its decay products merged into a single jet. The resulting signature is a peak over background in the distribution of the invariant ...Journal Article -
Search for heavy resonances that decay into a vector boson and a Higgs boson in hadronic final states at √s=13TeV
(2017)The European Physical Journal CA search for heavy resonances with masses above 1TeV, decaying to final states containing a vector boson and a Higgs boson, is presented. The search considers hadronic decays of the vector boson, and Higgs boson decays to b quarks. The decay products are highly boosted, and each collimated pair of quarks is reconstructed as a single, massive jet. The analysis is performed using a data sample collected in 2016 by the CMS experiment at the ...Journal Article
