Search for dark matter produced in association with a Higgs boson decaying to a pair of bottom quarks in proton–proton collisions at √s=13Te
(2019)The European Physical Journal CA search for dark matter produced in association with a Higgs boson decaying to a pair of bottom quarks is performed in proton–proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. The analyzed data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb−1. The signal is characterized by a large missing transverse momentum recoiling against a bottom quark–antiquark system that has a large Lorentz ...Journal Article -
Measurement of the top quark Yukawa coupling from t t ¯ kinematic distributions in the dilepton final state in proton-proton collisions at s =13 TeV
(2020)Physical Review DA measurement of the Higgs boson Yukawa coupling to the top quark is presented using proton-proton collision data at √s=13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb−1, recorded with the CMS detector. The coupling strength with respect to the standard model value, Yt, is determined from kinematic distributions in t¯t final states containing ee, μμ, or eμ pairs. Variations of the Yukawa coupling strength lead to modified ...Journal Article -
Search for direct pair production of supersymmetric partners to the τ lepton in proton–proton collisions at √s=13TeV
(2020)The European Physical Journal CA search is presented for τ slepton pairs produced in proton–proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV. The search is carried out in events containing two τ leptons in the final state, on the assumption that each τ slepton decays primarily to a τ lepton and a neutralino. Events are considered in which each τ lepton decays to one or more hadrons and a neutrino, or in which one of the τ leptons decays instead to an electron or ...Journal Article -
Search for Dark Matter Particles Produced in Association with a Top Quark Pair at √s =13 TeV
(2019)Physical Review LettersA search is performed for dark matter particles produced in association with a top quark pair in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC. No significant excess over the standard model expectation is observed. The results are interpreted using simplified models of dark matter production via spin-0 mediators that couple to dark matter ...Journal Article -
Constraints on the χc1 versus χc2 Polarizations in Proton-Proton Collisions at √s=8 TeV
(2020)Physical Review LettersThe polarizations of promptly produced χc1 and χc2 mesons are studied using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, in proton-proton collisions at √s=8 TeV. The χc states are reconstructed via their radiative decays χc→J/ψγ, with the photons being measured through conversions to e+e−, which allows the two states to be well resolved. The polarizations are measured in the helicity frame, through the analysis of the χc2 to χc1 yield ...Journal Article -
Search for a light charged Higgs boson in the H±→cs channel in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(2020)Physical Review DA search is conducted for a low-mass charged Higgs boson produced in a top quark decay and subsequently decaying into a charm and a strange quark. The data sample was recorded in proton-proton collisions at root s = 13 TeV by the CMS experiment at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). The search is performed in the process of top quark pair production, where one top quark decays to a bottom quark and a charged ...Journal Article -
Search for new physics in dijet angular distributions using proton–proton collisions at √s=13TeV and constraints on dark matter and other models
(2018)The European Physical Journal CA search is presented for physics beyond the standard model, based on measurements of dijet angular distributions in proton–proton collisions at √s=13TeV. The data collected with the CMS detector at the LHC correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb−1. The observed distributions, corrected to particle level, are found to be in agreement with predictions from perturbative quantum chromodynamics that include electroweak corrections. ...Journal Article -
Measurement of the top quark mass with lepton+jets final states using p p collisions at √s=13TeV
(2018)The European Physical Journal CThe mass of the top quark is measured using a sample of tt¯ events collected by the CMS detector using proton-proton collisions at s√=13 TeV at the CERN LHC. Events are selected with one isolated muon or electron and at least four jets from data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb−1. For each event the mass is reconstructed from a kinematic fit of the decay products to a tt¯ hypothesis. Using the ideogram method, the top ...Journal Article -
Measurement of exclusive Υ photoproduction from protons in p Pb collisions at √sNN=5.02TeV
(2019)The European Physical Journal CThe exclusive photoproduction of Υ(nS) meson states from protons, γp→Υ(nS)p (with n=1,2,3), is studied in ultraperipheral pPb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of sNN−−−√=5.02TeV. The measurement is performed using the Υ(nS)→μ+μ− decay mode, with data collected by the CMS experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 32.6nb−1. Differential cross sections as functions of the Υ(nS) transverse momentum squared ...Journal Article -
