Measurements of the five most significant angular coefficients, A0 through A4, for Z bosons produced in pp collisions at √s=8 TeV and decaying to μ+μ- are presented as a function of the transverse momentum and rapidity of ...

A measurement of the W boson helicity is presented, where the W boson originates from the decay of a top quark produced in pp collisions. The event selection, optimized for reconstructing a single top quark in the final ...

The first direct search for lepton-flavour-violating decays of the recently discovered Higgs boson (H) is described. The search is performed in the H → μτe and H → μτh channels, where τe and τh are tau leptons reconstructed ...

Searches for supersymmetry (SUSY) are performed using a sample of hadronic events produced in 8 TeV pp collisions at the CERN LHC. The searches are based on the M T2 variable, which is a measure of the transverse momentum ...

A search is presented for long-lived charged particles that decay within the CMS detector and produce the signature of a disappearing track. Disappearing tracks are identified as those with little or no associated calorimeter ...

The production of Z bosons is studied in the dimuon and dielectron decay channels in PbPb and pp collisions at √sNN = 2.76 TeV, using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The PbPb data sample corresponds to ...

Abstract: The ratio of the production cross sections times branching fractions σ(B± c )B(B± c → J/ψπ±) / σ(B±)B(B± → J/ψK±) is studied in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV with ...

A search is presented for physics beyond the standard model in final states with two opposite-sign same-flavor leptons, jets, and missing transverse momentum. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 19.4 ...

The first measurement of the cross section ratio σttbb/σttjj is presented using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.6 fb−1 collected in pp collisions at √s = 8 TeV with the CMS detector at the ...
