Search for ZZ resonances in the 2ℓ2ν final state in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV
(2018)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for heavy resonances decaying to a pair of Z bosons is performed using data collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. Events are selected by requiring two oppositely charged leptons (electrons or muons), consistent with the decay of a Z boson, and large missing transverse momentum, which is interpreted as arising from the decay of a second Z boson to two neutrinos. The analysis uses data from proton-proton collisions at a ...Journal Article -
Pseudorapidity distributions of charged hadrons in proton-lead collisions at √sNN=5.02 and 8.16 TeV
(2018)Journal of High Energy PhysicsThe pseudorapidity distributions of charged hadrons in proton-lead collisions at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies sNN−−−√=5.02 and 8.16 TeV are presented. The measurements are based on data samples collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The number of primary charged hadrons produced in non-single-diffractive proton-lead collisions is determined in the pseudorapidity range |ηlab| < 2.4. The charged-hadron multiplicity distributions ...Journal Article -
Search for WWγ and WZγ production and constraints on anomalous quartic gauge couplings in pp collisions at √s=8 TeV
(2014)Physical Review DA search for WVγ triple vector boson production is presented based on events containing a W boson decaying to a muon or an electron and a neutrino, a second V (W or Z) boson, and a photon. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.3 fb−1 collected in 2012 with the CMS detector at the LHC in pp collisions at √s=8 TeV. An upper limit of 311 fb on the cross section for the WVγ production process is obtained at 95% confidence ...Journal Article -
Search for massive resonances decaying into pairs of boosted bosons in semi-leptonic final states at √s = 8 TeV
(2014)Journal of High Energy PhysicsA search for new resonances decaying to WW, ZZ, or WZ is presented. Final states are considered in which one of the vector bosons decays leptonically and the other hadronically. Results are based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb−1 recorded in proton-proton collisions at s√ = 8 TeV with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. Techniques aiming at identifying jet substructures are used to analyze signal events in which ...Journal Article -

Measurement of Long-Range Near-Side Two-Particle Angular Correlations in pp Collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(2016)Physical Review LettersResults on two-particle angular correlations for charged particles produced in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV are presented. The data were taken with the CMS detector at the LHC and correspond to an integrated luminosity of about 270 nb−1. The correlations are studied over a broad range of pseudorapidity (|η|<2.4) and over the full azimuth (ϕ) as a function of charged particle multiplicity and transverse momentum (pT). ...Journal Article -
Measurement of Prompt ψ(2S) to J/ψ Yield Ratios in Pb-Pb and p-p Collisions at √sNN = 2.76 TeV
(2014)Physical Review LettersThe ratio between the prompt ψ(2S) and J/ψ yields, reconstructed via their decays into μ+μ−, is measured in Pb-Pb and p-p collisions at √sNN=2.76 TeV. The analysis is based on Pb-Pb and p-p data samples collected by CMS at the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 150 μb−1 and 5.4 pb−1, respectively. The double ratio of measured yields (Nψ(2S)/NJ/ψ)Pb−Pb/(Nψ(2S)/NJ/ψ)p−p is computed in three Pb-Pb collision ...Journal Article -
Measurement of four-jet production in proton-proton collisions at √s =7TeV
(2014)Physical Review DMeasurements of the differential cross sections for the production of exactly four jets in proton-proton collisions are presented as a function of the transverse momentum pT and pseudorapidity η, together with the correlations in azimuthal angle and the pT balance among the jets. The data sample was collected in 2010 at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC, with an integrated luminosity of 36 pb−1. The cross ...Journal Article
