Evidence for the Higgs Boson Decay to a Z Boson and a Photon at the LHC
(2024)Physical Review LettersThe first evidence for the Higgs boson decay to a Z boson and a photon is presented, with a statistical significance of 3.4 standard deviations. The result is derived from a combined analysis of the searches performed by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations with proton-proton collision datasets collected at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) from 2015 to 2018. These correspond to integrated luminosities of around 140fb⁻¹ for each experiment, ...Journal Article -
Search for the lepton flavor violating τ → 3μ decay in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13TeV
(2024)Physics Letters BA search for the lepton flavor violating τ → 3μ decay is performed using proton-proton collision events at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2017–2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 97.7 fb⁻¹. Tau leptons produced in both heavy-flavor hadron and W boson decays are exploited in the analysis. No evidence for the decay is observed. The results of this search are combined with an ...Journal Article -
Search for new Higgs bosons via same-sign top quark pair production in association with a jet in proton-proton collisions at s=13TeV
(2024)Physics Letters BA search is presented for new Higgs bosons in proton-proton (pp) collision events in which a same-sign top quark pair is produced in association with a jet, via the pp→tH/A→ttc‾ and pp→tH/A→ttu‾ processes. Here, H and A represent the extra scalar and pseudoscalar boson, respectively, of the second Higgs doublet in the generalized two-Higgs-doublet model (g2HDM). The search is based on pp collision data collected at a center-of-mass energy ...Journal Article -
Measurements of azimuthal anisotropy of nonprompt D⁰ mesons in PbPb collisions at √sNN = 5.02TeV
(2024)Physics Letters BMeasurements of the elliptic (v₂) and triangular (v₃) azimuthal anisotropy coefficients are presented for Image 1 mesons produced in Image 2 hadron decays (nonprompt Image 1 mesons) in lead-lead collisions at √sNN = 5.02TeV. The results are compared with previously published charm meson anisotropies measured using prompt Image 1 mesons. The data were collected with the CMS detector in 2018 with an integrated luminosity of 0.58nb⁻¹. Azimuthal ...Journal Article -
Two-particle Bose-Einstein correlations and their Lévy parameters in PbPb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV
(2024)Physical Review CTwo-particle Bose–Einstein momentum correlation functions are studied for charged-hadron pairs in lead-lead collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of √sNN = 5.02 TeV. The data sample, containing 4.27 × 10⁹ minimum bias events corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.607 nb⁻¹, was collected by the CMS experiment in 2018. The experimental results are discussed in terms of a Lévy-type source distribution. The parameters ...Journal Article -

Search for exotic decays of the Higgs boson to a pair of pseudoscalars in the μμbb and ττbb final states
(2024)The European Physical Journal CA search for exotic decays of the Higgs boson (H) with a mass of 125 GeV to a pair of light pseudoscalars a1 is performed in final states where one pseudoscalar decays to two b quarks and the other to a pair of muons or τ leptons. A data sample of proton–proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV cor- responding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb^−1 recorded with the CMS detector is analyzed. No statistically signifi- cant excess is ...Journal Article -
Higher-order moments of the elliptic flow distribution in PbPb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV
(2024)Journal of High Energy PhysicsThe hydrodynamic flow-like behavior of charged hadrons in high-energy lead-lead collisions is studied through multiparticle correlations. The elliptic anisotropy values based on different orders of multiparticle cumulants, v₂{2k}, are measured up to the tenth order (k = 5) as functions of the collision centrality at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of √sNN = 5.02 TeV. The data were recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC and ...Journal Article -
Search for dark matter particles in W⁺W⁻ events with transverse momentum imbalance in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(2024)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for dark matter particles is performed using events with a pair of W bosons and large missing transverse momentum. Candidate events are selected by requiring one or two leptons (ℓ = electrons or muons). The analysis is based on proton-proton collision data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV by the CMS experiment at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb⁻¹. No significant excess over the expected ...Journal Article
