Measurement of the weak mixing angle using the forward-backward asymmetry of Drell-Yan events in pp collisions at 8 TeV
(Springer, 2018)
A measurement is presented of the effective leptonic weak mixing angle (sin(2) theta(effl))using the forward- backward asymmetry of Drell-Yan lepton pairs (mu mu and ee) produced in proton-proton collisions at N root s = ...
Search for third-generation scalar leptoquarks decaying to a top quark and a tau lepton at root s=13 TeV
(Springer, 2018)
search for pair production of heavy scalar leptoquarks (LQs), each decaying into a top quark and a tau lepton, is presented. The search considers final states with an electron or a muon, one or two tau leptons that decayed ...
Search for new physics in dijet angular distributions using proton-proton collisions at root s=13 TeV and constraints on dark matter and other models
(Springer, 2018)
search is presented for physics beyond the standard model, based on measurements of dijet angular distributions in proton-proton collisions at root s = 13 TeV. The data collected with the CMS detector at the LHC correspond ...
Measurement of the top quark mass with lepton plus jets final states using pp collisions at root s=13 TeV
(Springer, 2018)
The mass of the top quark is measured using a sample of t (t) over bar events collected by the CMS detector using proton-proton collisions at root s = 13 TeV at the CERN LHC. Events are selected with one isolated muon or ...
Performance of reconstruction and identification of tau leptons decaying to hadrons and nu(tau) in pp collisions at root s=13 TeV
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2018)
The algorithm developed by the CMS Collaboration to reconstruct and identify tau leptons produced in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 and 8 TeV, via their decays to hadrons and a neutrino, has been significantly ...
Precision measurement of the structure of the CMS inner tracking system using nuclear interactions
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2018)
The structure of the CMS inner tracking system has been studied using nuclear interactions of hadrons striking its material. Data from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded in 2015 at the ...
Measurement of charged particle spectra in minimum-bias events from proton-proton collisions at root s =13 TeV
(Springer, 2018)
Pseudorapidity, transverse momentum, and multiplicity distributions are measured in the pseudorapidity range vertical bar eta vertical bar < 2.4 for charged particles with transverse momenta satisfying pT > 0.5 GeV in ...
Measurement of differential cross sections for the production of top quark pairs and of additional jets in lepton plus jets events from pp collisions at root s=13 TeV
(Amer Physical Soc, 2018)
Differential and double-differential cross sections for the production of top quark pairs in proton-proton collisions at root s = 13 TeV are measured as a function of kinematic variables of the top quarks and the top ...
Study of dijet events with a large rapidity gap between the two leading jets in pp collisions at root s=7 TeV
(Springer, 2018)
Events with no charged particles produced between the two leading jets are studied in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV. The jets were required to have transverse momentum p(T)(jet) > 40 GeV and pseudorapidity 1.5 ...
Search for pair production of excited top quarks in the lepton plus jets final state The CMS Collaboration
(Elsevier, 2018)
A search is performed for the pair production of spin-3/2 excited top quarks, each decaying to a top quark and a gluon. The search uses the data collected with the CMS detector from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass ...
