Searches for W' bosons decaying to a top quark and a bottom quark in proton-proton collisions at 13TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsSearches are presented for heavy gauge bosons decaying into a top and a bottom quark in data collected by the CMS experiment at s √ s = 13 TeV that correspond to an integrated luminosity of 2.2 and 2.6 fb−1 in the leptonic and hadronic analyses, respectively. Two final states are analyzed, one containing a single electron, or muon, and missing transverse momentum, and the other containing multiple jets and no electrons or muons. No ...Journal Article -
Measurement of the tt¯ production cross section using events with one lepton and at least one jet in pp collisions at s√ = 13 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA measurement of the tt¯ production cross section at s√=13 TeV is presented using proton-proton collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.2 fb−1, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. Final states with one isolated charged lepton (electron or muon) and at least one jet are selected and categorized according to the accompanying jet multiplicity. From a likelihood fit to the invariant mass distribution of the isolated ...Journal Article -

Search for dark matter produced with an energetic jet or a hadronically decaying W or Z boson at s√=13 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for dark matter particles is performed using events with large missing transverse momentum, at least one energetic jet, and no leptons, 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 12.9 fb−1. The search includes events with jets from the hadronic decays of a W or Z boson. The data are found to be in agreement with the predicted ...Journal Article -
Search for electroweak production of a vector-like quark decaying to a top quark and a Higgs boson using boosted topologies in fully hadronic final states
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search is performed for electroweak production of a vector-like top quark partner T of charge 2/3 in association with a standard model top or bottom quark, using 2.3 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at \( \sqrt{s}=13 \) TeV collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC. The search targets T quarks decaying to a top quark and a Higgs boson in fully hadronic final states. For a T quark with mass above 1 TeV the daughter top quark ...Journal Article -
Search for tt⎯⎯ resonances in highly boosted lepton+jets and fully hadronic final states in proton-proton collisions at s√=13 TeV
(2017)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for the production of heavy resonances decaying into top quark-antiquark pairs is presented. The analysis is performed in the lepton+jets and fully hadronic channels using data collected in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV using the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.6 fb−1. The selection is optimized for massive resonances, where the top quarks have large Lorentz boosts. No evidence ...Journal Article -
Inclusive search for supersymmetry using razor variables in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(2017)Physical Review DAn inclusive search for supersymmetry using razor variables is performed in events with four or more jets and no more than one lepton. The results are based on a sample of proton-proton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.3 fb−1 collected with the CMS experiment at a center-of-mass energy of √s = 13 TeV. No significant excess over the background prediction is observed in data, and 95% confidence level exclusion limits ...Journal Article
