Search for pair production of second-generation leptoquarks at √s = 13 TeV
(American Physical Society, 2019-02)
A search for pair production of second-generation leptoquarks is performed using proton-proton collision data collected at √s = 13 TeV in 2016 with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity ...
Search for third-generation scalar leptoquarks and heavy right-handed neutrinos in final states with two tau leptons and two jets in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(Springer Nature, 2017-07)
A search is performed for third-generation scalar leptoquarks and heavy right-handed neutrinos in events containing one electron or muon, one hadronically decaying τ lepton, and at least two jets, using a √s=13 TeV pp ...
Search for the pair production of light top squarks in the e[superscript ±]μ[superscript ∓] final state in proton-proton collisions at s√=13 TeV
(Springer, 2019-03)
A search for the production of a pair of top squarks at the LHC is presented. This search targets a region of parameter space where the kinematics of top squark pair production and top quark pair production are very similar, ...
Measurement of angular parameters from the decay B⁰→ K*⁰ μ⁺μ⁻ in proton–proton collisions at √s = 8 TeV
Angular distributions of the decay B⁰→ K*⁰ μ⁺μ⁻ are studied using a sample of proton–proton collisions at √s = 8 TeV collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.5fb⁻¹. An ...
Performance of the CMS muon detector and muon reconstruction with proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(IOP Publishing, 2018-06)
The CMS muon detector system, muon reconstruction software, and high-level trigger underwent significant changes in 2013-2014 in preparation for running at higher LHC collision energy and instantaneous luminosity. The ...
Search for narrow Hγ resonances in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(American Physical Society, 2019-03)
A search for heavy, narrow resonances decaying to a Higgs boson and a photon (Hγ) has been performed in proton-proton collision data at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of ...
Identification of b-quark jets with the CMS experiment
(IOP Publishing, 2013-04)
At the Large Hadron Collider, the identification of jets originating from b quarks is important for searches for new physics and for measurements of standard model processes. A variety of algorithms has been developed by ...
Energy calibration and resolution of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
(IOP Publishing, 2013-09)
The energy calibration and resolution of the electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) of the CMS detector have been determined using proton-proton collision data from LHC operation in 2010 and 2011 at a centre-of-mass energy of ...
Search for dark matter produced in association with a single top quark or a top quark pair in proton-proton collisions at √s =13 TeV
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2019-03-25)
A search for dark matter produced in association with top quarks in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV is presented. The data set used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb⁻¹ recorded ...
Alignment of the CMS tracker with LHC and cosmic ray data
(IOP Publishing, 2014-06)
The central component of the CMS detector is the largest silicon tracker ever built. The precise alignment of this complex device is a formidable challenge, and only achievable with a significant extension of the technologies ...
