Highly boosted dielectron identification in proton-proton collisions at = 13 TeV
CMS Collaboration
A new technique is developed to identify dielectrons (ee) with Lorentz boost 20 that produce one single merged cluster in the electromagnetic calorimet…
Observation of tWZ production at the CMS experiment
CMS Collaboration
The first observation of single top quark production in association with a W and a Z boson in proton-proton collisions is reported. The analysis uses data at center-of-mass energie…
Search for nonresonant new physics signals in high-mass dilepton events produced in association with b-tagged jets in proton-proton collisions at = 13 TeV
CMS Collaboration
A search for nonresonant new physics phenomena in high-mass dilepton events produced in association with b-tagged jets is performed using proton-proton collision data collected in…
Machine learning method for enforcing variable independence in background estimation with LHC data: ABCDisCoTEC
CMS Collaboration
A novel solution is presented for the problem of estimating the backgrounds of a signal search using observed data while simultaneously maximizing the sensitivity of the search to…
High-precision measurement of the W boson mass with the CMS experiment
CMS Collaboration
In the standard model of particle physics, the masses of the W and Z bosons, the carriers of the weak interaction, are uniquely related. A precise determination of their masses is…
Review of searches for vector-like quarks, vector-like leptons, and heavy neutral leptons in proton-proton collisions at = 13 TeV at the CMS experiment
CMS Collaboration
The LHC has provided an unprecedented amount of proton-proton collision data, bringing forth exciting opportunities to address fundamental open questions in particle physics. These…
