Probing the chiral magnetic wave in pPb and PbPb collisions at sNN =5.02 TeV using charge-dependent azimuthal anisotropies
(2019)Physical Review CCharge-dependent anisotropy Fourier coefficients (vn) of particle azimuthal distributions are measured in pPb and PbPb collisions at √sNN=5.02TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC. The normalized difference in the second-order anisotropy coefficients (v2) between positively and negatively charged particles is found to depend linearly on the observed event charge asymmetry with comparable slopes for both pPb and PbPb collisions over a wide ...Journal Article -
Search for a standard model-like Higgs boson in the mass range between 70 and 110 GeV in the diphoton final state in proton-proton collisions at s=8 and 13 TeV
(2019)Physics Letters BThe results of a search for a standard model-like Higgs boson in the mass range between 70 and 110 GeV decaying into two photons are presented. The analysis uses the data set collected with the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions during the 2012 and 2016 LHC running periods. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 at (13) TeV. The expected and observed 95% confidence level upper limits on the product of the ...Journal Article -
Measurement of inclusive very forward jet cross sections in proton-lead collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV
(2019)Journal of High Energy PhysicsMeasurements of differential cross sections for inclusive very forward jet production in proton-lead collisions as a function of jet energy are presented. The data were collected with the CMS experiment at the LHC in the laboratory pseudorapidity range −6.6 < η < −5.2. Asymmetric beam energies of 4 TeV for protons and 1.58 TeV per nucleon for Pb nuclei were used, corresponding to a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of √sNN = 5.02 ...Journal Article -
Measurement of prompt ψ(2S) production cross sections in proton–lead and proton–proton collisions at √sNN =5.02TeV
(2019)Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy PhysicsMeasurements of prompt ψ(2S) meson production cross sections in proton–lead (pPb) and proton–proton (pp) collisions at a nucleon–nucleon center-of-mass energy of √sNN =5.02TeV are reported. The results are based on pPb and pp data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 34.6nb−1 and 28.0pb-1, respectively. The nuclear modification factor RpPb is measured for prompt ψ(2S) in the transverse ...Journal Article -
Measurement of nuclear modification factors of ϒ(1S), ϒ(2S), and ϒ(3S) mesons in PbPb collision at √s NN = 5.02 TeV
(2019)Physics Letters BThe cross sections for ϒ(1S), ϒ(2S), and ϒ(3S) production in lead–lead (PbPb) and proton–proton (pp) collisions at √s NN = 5.02 TeV have been measured using the CMS detector at the LHC. The nuclear modification factors, RAA, derived from the PbPb-to-pp ratio of yields for each state, are studied as functions of meson rapidity and transverse momentum, as well as PbPb collision centrality. The yields of all three states are found to be ...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.

Differential cross sections as functions of the Υ(nS) transverse momentum squared ...Journal Article -
Non-Gaussian elliptic-flow fluctuations in PbPb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV
(2019)Physics Letters BEvent-by-event fluctuations in the elliptic-flow coefficient v2 are studied in PbPb collisions at √sNN=5.02 TeV using the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. Elliptic-flow probability distributions p(v2) for charged particles with transverse momentum 0.3<pT<3.0 GeV/c and pseudorapidity |η|<1.0 are determined for different collision centrality classes. The moments of the p(v2) distributions are used to calculate the v2 coefficients based on ...Journal Article -
