Search for Resonant and Nonresonant Higgs Boson Pair Production in the b[overline b] ℓνℓν Final State in Proton-Proton Collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2018-01)
Searches for resonant and nonresonant pair-produced Higgs bosons (HH) decaying respectively into , through either W or Z bosons, and bb ¯ are presented. The analyses are based on a sample of proton-proton collisions at √s ...
Jet production rates in association with W and Z bosons in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2012-01)
Measurements of jet production rates in association with W and Z bosons for jet transverse momenta above 30 GeV are reported, using a sample of proton-proton collision events recorded by CMS at √s = 7 TeV, corresponding ...
Measurement of the production cross section for Zɣ to ν[overline ν]ɣ in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV and limits on ZZɣ and Zɣɣ triple gauge boson couplings
(Springer Nature, 2013-10)
A measurement of the Zɣ to ν[overline ν]ɣ cross section in pp collisions at root √s = 7 TeV is presented, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb(⁻¹) collected with the CMS detector. This measurement ...
Search for dark matter in proton-proton collisions at 8 TeV with missing transverse momentum and vector boson tagged jets
(Springer Nature America, Inc, 2016-12)
A search is presented for an excess of events with large missing transverse momentum in association with at least one highly energetic jet, in a data sample of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. ...
Jet energy scale and resolution in the CMS experiment in pp collisions at 8 TeV
(IOP Publishing, 2017-02)
Improved jet energy scale corrections, based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb ⁻¹ collected by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, are ...
Mechanical stability of the CMS strip tracker measured with a laser alignment system
(IOP Publishing, 2017-04)
The CMS tracker consists of 206 m 2 of silicon strip sensors assembled on carbon fibre composite structures and is designed for operation in the temperature range from -25 to +25°C. The mechanical stability of tracker ...
Calibration of the CMS drift tube chambers and measurement of the drift velocity with cosmic rays
(2010-03)
This paper describes the calibration procedure for the drift tubes of the CMS barrel muon system and reports the main results obtained with data collected during a high statistics cosmic ray data-taking period. The main ...
Performance of CMS muon reconstruction in cosmic-ray events
(IOP Publishing, 2010-03)
The performance of muon reconstruction in CMS is evaluated using a large data sample of cosmic-ray muons recorded in 2008. Efficiencies of various high-level trigger, identification, and reconstruction algorithms have been ...
Search for a massive resonance decaying into a Higgs boson and a W or Z boson in hadronic final states in proton-proton collisions at √s = 8 TeV
(Springer Nature, 2016-02)
A search for a massive resonance decaying into a standard-model-like Higgs boson (H) and a W or Z boson is reported. The analysis is performed on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb[superscript ...
Measurement of the weak mixing angle using the forward–backward asymmetry of Drell–Yan events in pp collisions at 8 TeV
(2018-09)
A measurement is presented of the effective leptonic weak mixing angle (sin[superscript 2] θ[superscript ℓ][subscript eff]) using the forward–backward asymmetry of Drell–Yan lepton pairs (μμ and ee) produced in proton–proton ...
