Measurement of the Polarization of W Bosons with Large Transverse Momenta in W plus jets Events at the LHC
(2011)Physical Review LettersA first measurement of the polarization of W bosons with large transverse momenta in pp collisions is presented. The measurement is based on 36 pb−1 of data recorded at √s=7 TeV by the CMS detector at the LHC. The left-handed, right-handed, and longitudinal polarization fractions (fL, fR, and f0, respectively) of W bosons with transverse momenta larger than 50 GeV are determined by using decays to both electrons and muons. The muon final ...Journal Article -
Measurement of the Inclusive Jet Cross Section in pp Collisions at √s=7 TeV
(2011)Physical Review LettersThe inclusive jet cross section is measured in pp collisions with a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider using the CMS experiment. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 34 pb−1. The measurement is made for jet transverse momenta in the range 18–1100 GeV and for absolute values of rapidity less than 3. The measured cross section extends to the highest values of jet pT ever observed and, within ...Journal Article -
Search for Neutral Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model Higgs Bosons Decaying to Tau Pairs in pp Collisions at √s=7 TeV
(2011)Physical Review LettersA search for neutral minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) Higgs bosons in pp collisions at the LHC at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV is presented. The results are based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 pb−1 recorded by the CMS experiment. The search uses decays of the Higgs bosons to tau pairs. No excess is observed in the tau-pair invariant-mass spectrum. The resulting upper limits on the Higgs ...Journal Article -
Search for supersymmetry in pp collisions at √s=7 TeV in events with two photons and missing transverse energy
(2011)Physical Review LettersA search for supersymmetry in the context of general gauge-mediated breaking with the lightest neutralino as the next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle and the gravitino as the lightest is presented. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 36 pb−1 recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The search is performed by using events containing two or more isolated photons, at least one hadronic jet, and significant missing ...Journal Article
