The angular distribution of the flavor-changing neutral current decay \({B}^{+}\to {K}^{+}{\mu }^{+}{\mu }^{-}\) is studied in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The analysis is based on data collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of \(20.5\text{}\text{}{\mathrm{fb}}^{-1}\). The forward-backward asymmetry \({A}_{\mathrm{FB}}\) of the dimuon system and the contribution \({F}_{H}\) from the pseudoscalar, scalar, and tensor amplitudes to the decay width are measured as a function of the dimuon mass squared. The measurements are consistent with the standard model expectations.

The angular distributions and the differential branching fraction of the decay \(B^{0} \to K^{*}(893)^{0}\mu^{+}\mu^{-}\) are studied using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.5 fb⁻¹ collected with the CMS detector at the LHC in pp collisions at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 8 TeV. From 1430 signal decays, the forward-backward asymmetry of the muons, the \(K^{*}(892)^{0}\) longitudinal polarization fraction, and the differential branching fraction are determined as a function of the dimuon invariant mass squared. The measurements are among the most precise to date and are in good agreement with standard model predictions.

Angular distributions of the decay B\(^{+}\) → K*(892)\(^{+}\) μ\(^{+}\) μ\(^{−}\) are studied using events collected with the CMS detector in \(\sqrt{s}\)=8TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.0 fb⁻¹. The forward-backward asymmetry of the muons and the longitudinal polarization of the K*(892)\(^{+}\) meson are determined as a function of the square of the dimuon invariant mass. These are the first results from this exclusive decay mode and are in agreement with a standard model prediction.

Measurements of the five most significant angular coefficients, \(A_{0}\) through \(A_{4}\), for Z bosons produced in pp collisions at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 8 TeV and decaying to \(\mu^{+}\mu^{-}\) are presented as a function of the transverse momentum and rapidity of the Z boson. The integrated luminosity of the dataset collected with the CMS detector at the LHC corresponds to 19.7fb⁻¹. These measurements provide comprehensive information about the Z boson production mechanisms, and are compared to the QCD predictions at leading order, next-to-leading order, and next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbation theory.

Azimuthal correlations between the two jets with the largest transverse momenta \({p}_{T}\) in inclusive 2-, 3-, and 4-jet events are presented for several regions of the leading jet \({p}_{T}\) up to 4 \(\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}\text{Te}\phantom{\rule{0.333333em}{0ex}}\). For 3- and 4-jet scenarios, measurements of the minimum azimuthal angles between any two of the three or four leading \({p}_{T}\) jets are also presented. The analysis is based on data from proton–proton collisions collected by the CMS Collaboration at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 \(\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}\text{Te}\phantom{\rule{0.333333em}{0ex}}\), corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 \(\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}{\text{fb}}^{-1}\). Calculations based on leading-order matrix elements supplemented with parton showering and hadronization do not fully describe the data, so next-to-leading-order calculations matched with parton shower and hadronization models are needed to better describe the measured distributions. Furthermore, we show that azimuthal jet correlations are sensitive to details of the parton showering, hadronization, and multiparton interactions. A next-to-leading-order calculation matched with parton showers in the MC@NLO method, as implemented in herwig 7, gives a better overall description of the measurements than the powheg method.
Azimuthal decorrelation of jets widely separated in rapidity in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
(2016) CMS Collaboration; Charaf, O.; Cooper, S.I.; Henderson, C.; Rumerio, P.; University of Alabama Tuscaloosa
The decorrelation in the azimuthal angle between the most forward and the most backward jets (Mueller-Navelet jets) is measured in data collected in pp collisions with the CMS detector at the LHC at \(\sqrt{s}\)=7TeV. The measurement is presented in the form of distributions of azimuthal-angle differences, Δϕ, between the Mueller-Navelet jets, the average cosines of (π − Δϕ), 2( π − Δϕ), and 3(π − Δϕ), and ratios of these cosines. The jets are required to have transverse momenta, \(p_{T}\), in excess of 35 GeV and rapidities, |y|, of less than 4.7. The results are presented as a function of the rapidity separation, Δy, between the Mueller-Navelet jets, reaching Δy up to 9.4 for the first time. The results are compared to predictions of various Monte Carlo event generators and to analytical predictions based on the DGLAP and BFKL parton evolution schemes.

A measurement for inclusive 2- and 3-jet events of the azimuthal correlation between the two jets with the largest transverse momenta, \(\Delta {\varphi }_{12}\), is presented. The measurement considers events where the two leading jets are nearly collinear (“back-to-back”) in the transverse plane and is performed for several ranges of the leading jet transverse momentum. Proton-proton collision data collected with the CMS experiment at a center-of-mass energy of \(13\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}\text{Te}\phantom{\rule{0.333333em}{0ex}}\) and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of \(35.9\phantom{\rule{0.166667em}{0ex}}{\text{fb}}^{-1}\) are used. Predictions based on calculations using matrix elements at leading-order and next-to-leading-order accuracy in perturbative quantum chromodynamics supplemented with leading-log parton showers and hadronization are generally in agreement with the measurements. Discrepancies between the measurement and theoretical predictions are as large as 15%, mainly in the region \({177}^{\circ }<\Delta {\varphi }_{12}<{180}^{\circ }\). The 2- and 3-jet measurements are not simultaneously described by any of models.

Quantum-statistical (Bose-Einstein) two-particle correlations are measured in \(pp\) collisions at \(\sqrt{s}=0.9\), 2.76, and 7 TeV, as well as in \(p\mathrm{Pb}\) and peripheral PbPb collisions at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies of 5.02 and 2.76 TeV, respectively, using the CMS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Separate analyses are performed for same-sign unidentified charged particles as well as for same-sign pions and kaons identified via their energy loss in the silicon tracker. The characteristics of the one-, two-, and three-dimensional correlation functions are studied as functions of the pair average transverse momentum (\({k}_{T}\)) and the charged-particle multiplicity in the event. For all systems, the extracted correlation radii steadily increase with the event multiplicity, and decrease with increasing \({k}_{T}\). The radii are in the range 1–5 fm, the largest values corresponding to very high multiplicity \(p\mathrm{Pb}\) interactions and to peripheral PbPb collisions with multiplicities similar to those seen in \(p\mathrm{Pb}\) data. It is also observed that the dependencies of the radii on multiplicity and \({k}_{T}\) largely factorize. At the same multiplicity, the radii are relatively independent of the colliding system and center-of-mass energy.
Bose-Einstein correlations of charged hadrons in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(2020) CMS Collaboration; Buccilli, A.; Cooper, S.I.; Henderson, C.; Rumerio, P.; West, C.; University of Alabama Tuscaloosa
Bose-Einstein correlations of charged hadrons are measured over a broad multiplicity range, from a few particles up to about 250 reconstructed charged hadrons in proton-proton collisions at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 13 TeV. The results are based on data collected using the CMS detector at the LHC during runs with a special low-pileup configuration. Three analysis techniques with different degrees of dependence on simulations are used to remove the non-Bose-Einstein background from the correlation functions. All three methods give consistent results. The measured lengths of homogeneity are studied as functions of particle multiplicity as well as average pair transverse momentum and mass. The results are compared with data from both CMS and ATLAS at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 7 TeV, as well as with theoretical predictions.

The almost hermetic coverage of the CMS detector is used to measure the distribution of transverse energy, \({E}_{T}\), over 13.2 units of pseudorapidity, \(\eta \), for \(p\text{Pb}\) collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of \(\sqrt{{s}_{{}_{\mathrm{NN}}}}=5.02\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\text{TeV}\). The huge angular acceptance exploits the fact that the CASTOR calorimeter at \(-6.6<\eta <-5.2\) is effectively present on both sides of the colliding system because of a switch in the proton-going and lead-going beam directions. This wide acceptance enables the study of correlations between well-separated angular regions and makes the measurement a particularly powerful test of event generators. For minimum bias \(p\text{Pb}\) collisions the maximum value of \(d{E}_{T}/d\eta \) is \(22\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\text{GeV}\), which implies an \({E}_{T}\) per participant nucleon pair comparable to that of peripheral PbPb collisions at \(\sqrt{{s}_{{}_{\mathrm{NN}}}}=2.76\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\text{TeV}\). The increase of \(d{E}_{T}/d\eta \) with centrality is much stronger for the lead-going side than for the proton-going side. The \(\eta \) dependence of \(d{E}_{T}/d\eta \) is sensitive to the \(\eta \) range in which the centrality variable is defined. Several modern generators are compared to these results but none is able to capture all aspects of the \(\eta \) and centrality dependence of the data and the correlations observed between different \(\eta \) regions.

Azimuthal correlations of charged particles in xenon-xenon collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of \(\sqrt{{s}_{\mathrm{NN}}}=5.44\) TeV are studied. The data were collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC with a total integrated luminosity of \(3.42\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\mu {\text{b}}^{-1}\). The collective motion of the system formed in the collision is parametrized by a Fourier expansion of the azimuthal particle density distribution. The azimuthal anisotropy coefficients \({v}_{2},{v}_{3}\), and \({v}_{4}\) are obtained by the scalar-product, two-particle correlation, and multiparticle correlation methods. Within a hydrodynamic picture, these methods have different sensitivities to noncollective and fluctuation effects. The dependence of the Fourier coefficients on the size of the colliding system is explored by comparing the xenon-xenon results with equivalent lead-lead data. Model calculations that include initial-state fluctuation effects are also compared to the experimental results. The observed angular correlations provide new constraints on the hydrodynamic description of heavy ion collisions.
Charged-particle nuclear modification factors in PbPb and pPb collisions at √s_NN = 5.02 TeV
(2017) CMS Collaboration; Cooper, S.I.; Henderson, C.; Rumerio, P.; West, C.; University of Alabama Tuscaloosa
The spectra of charged particles produced within the pseudorapidity window |η| < 1 at \(\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}\) = 5.02 TeV are measured using 404 μb\(^{−1}\) of PbPb and 27.4 pb\(^{−1}\) of pp data collected by the CMS detector at the LHC in 2015. The spectra are presented over the transverse momentum ranges spanning 0.5 < \(p_{T}\) < 400 GeV in pp and 0.7 < \(p_{T}\) < 400 GeV in PbPb collisions. The corresponding nuclear modification factor, \(R_{AA}\), is measured in bins of collision centrality. The \(R_{AA}\) in the 5% most central collisions shows a maximal suppression by a factor of 7-8 in the \(p_{T}\) region of 6-9 GeV. This dip is followed by an increase, which continues up to the highest \(p_{T}\) measured, and approaches unity in the vicinity of \(p_{T}\) = 200 GeV. The \(R_{AA}\) is compared to theoretical predictions and earlier experimental results at lower collision energies. The newly measured pp spectrum is combined with the pPb spectrum previously published by the CMS collaboration to construct the pPb nuclear modification factor, \(R_{pA}\), up to 120 GeV. For \(p_{T}\) > 20 GeV, \(R_{pA}\) exhibits weak momentum dependence and shows a moderate enhancement above unity.
Charged-particle nuclear modification factors in XeXe collisions at √s_NN = 5.44 TeV
(2018) CMS Collaboration; Buccilli, A.; Cooper, S.I.; Henderson, C.; Rumerio, P.; West, C.; University of Alabama Tuscaloosa
The differential yields of charged particles having pseudorapidity within |η| < 1 are measured using xenon-xenon (XeXe) collisions at \(\sqrt{{s}_{NN}}=\phantom{\rule{0.25em}{0ex}}5.44\) TeV. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.42 μb\(^{−1}\), were collected in 2017 by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The yields are reported as functions of collision centrality and transverse momentum, \(p_T\), from 0.5 to 100 GeV. A previously reported \(p_{T}\) spectrum from proton-proton collisions at \(\sqrt{s}=5.02\) TeV is used for comparison after correcting for the difference in center-of-mass energy. The nuclear modification factors using this reference, \(R_{AA}^{*}\), are constructed and compared to previous measurements and theoretical predictions. In head-on collisions, the \(R_{AA}^{*}\) has a value of 0.17 in the \(p_{T}\) range of 6–8 GeV, but increases to approximately 0.7 at 100 GeV. Above ≈6 GeV, the XeXe data show a notably smaller suppression than previous results for lead-lead (PbPb) collisions at \(\sqrt{{s}_{NN}}=5.02\) TeV when compared at the same centrality (i.e., the same fraction of total cross section). However, the XeXe suppression is slightly greater than that for PbPb in events having a similar number of participating nucleons.

The cross section for coherent J/ψ photoproduction accompanied by at least one neutron on one side of the interaction point and no neutron activity on the other side, \(X_{n}0_{n}\), is measured with the CMS experiment in ultra-peripheral PbPb collisions at \(\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}\)=2.76TeV. The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 159 μb\(^{−1}\), collected during the 2011 PbPb run. The \(J/ψ\) mesons are reconstructed in the dimuon decay channel, while neutrons are detected using zero degree calorimeters. The measured cross section is \(dσ_{{{X}_{n}}{{0}_{n}}}^{coh}/dy(J/ψ)\) = 0.36 ± 0.04 (stat) ± 0.04 (syst) mb in the rapidity interval 1.8 < |y| < 2.3. Using a model for the relative rate of coherent photoproduction processes, this \(X_{n}0_{n}\) measurement gives a total coherent photoproduction cross section of \(dσ^{coh}/dy(J/ψ)\) = 1.82 ± 0.22 (stat) ± 0.20 (syst) ± 0.19 (theo) mb. The data strongly disfavor the impulse approximation model prediction, indicating that nuclear effects are needed to describe coherent \(J/ψ\) photoproduction in \(γ\)+Pb interactions. The data are found to be consistent with the leading twist approximation, which includes nuclear gluon shadowing.

A statistical combination of searches for heavy resonances decaying to pairs of bosons or leptons is presented. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb\({-1}\) collected during 2016 by the CMS experiment at the LHC in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The data are found to be consistent with expectations from the standard model background. Exclusion limits are set in the context of models of spin-1 heavy vector triplets and of spin-2 bulk gravitons. For mass-degenerate W′ and Z′ resonances that predominantly couple to the standard model gauge bosons, the mass exclusion at 95% confidence level of heavy vector bosons is extended to 4.5 TeV as compared to 3.8 TeV determined from the best individual channel. This excluded mass increases to 5.0 TeV if the resonances couple predominantly to fermions.
Combination of inclusive and differential tt¯ charge asymmetry measurements using ATLAS and CMS data at √s = 7 and 8 TeV
(2018) CMS Collaboration; Buccilli, A.; Cooper, S.I.; Henderson, C.; Rumerio, P.; West, C.; University of Alabama Tuscaloosa
This paper presents combinations of inclusive and differential measurements of the charge asymmetry (\(A_C\)) in top quark pair \(\left(t\overline{t}\right)\) events with a lepton+jets signature by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations, using data from LHC proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The data correspond to integrated luminosities of about 5 and 20 fb⁻¹ for each experiment, respectively. The resulting combined LHC measurements of the inclusive charge asymmetry are \(A_C^{LHC7}\) = 0.005 ± 0.007 (stat) ± 0.006(syst) at 7 TeV and \(A_C^{LHC8}\) = 0.0055 ± 0.0023 (stat) ± 0.0025 (syst) at 8 TeV. These values, as well as the combination of (\(A_C\)) measurements as a function of the invariant mass of the \(t\overline{t}\) system at 8 TeV, are consistent with the respective standard model predictions.

A statistical combination of searches is presented for massive resonances decaying to WW, WZ, ZZ, WH, and ZH boson pairs in proton–proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The data were taken at centre-of-mass energies of 8 and 13 TeV, corresponding to respective integrated luminosities of 19.7 and up to 2.7 fb⁻¹. The results are interpreted in the context of heavy vector triplet and singlet models that mimic properties of composite-Higgs models predicting W′ and Z′ bosons decaying to WZ, WW, WH, and ZH bosons. A model with a bulk graviton that decays into WW and ZZ is also considered. This is the first combined search for WW, WZ, WH, and ZH resonances and yields lower limits on masses at 95% confidence level for W′ and Z′ singlets at 2.3 TeV, and for a triplet at 2.4 TeV. The limits on the production cross section of a narrow bulk graviton resonance with the curvature scale of the warped extra dimension \(\tilde{k}\)=0.5, in the mass range of 0.6 to 4.0 TeV, are the most stringent published to date.

This Letter describes a search for Higgs boson pair production using the combined results from four final states: \(bb\gamma \gamma \), \(bb\tau \tau \), \(bbbb\), and \(bbVV\), where \(V\) represents a \(W\) or \(Z\) boson. The search is performed using data collected in 2016 by the CMS experiment from LHC proton-proton collisions at \(\sqrt{s}=13\text{}\text{}\mathrm{TeV}\), corresponding to an integrated luminosity of \(35.9\text{}\text{}{\mathrm{fb}}^{-1}\). Limits are set on the Higgs boson pair production cross section. A 95% confidence level observed (expected) upper limit on the nonresonant production cross section is set at 22.2 (12.8) times the standard model value. A search for narrow resonances decaying to Higgs boson pairs is also performed in the mass range 250–3000 GeV. No evidence for a signal is observed, and upper limits are set on the resonance production cross section.
Combination of the W boson polarization measurements in top quark decays using ATLAS and CMS data at √s = 8 TeV
(2020) CMS Collaboration; Buccilli, A.; Cooper, S.I.; Gleyzer, S.V.; Henderson, C.; Rumerio, P.; West, C.; University of Alabama Tuscaloosa
The combination of measurements of the W boson polarization in top quark decays performed by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations is presented. The measurements are based on proton-proton collision data produced at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 20 fb⁻¹ for each experiment. The measurements used events containing one lepton and having different jet multiplicities in the final state. The results are quoted as fractions of W bosons with longitudinal (\(F_0\)), left-handed (\(F_L\)), or right-handed (\(F_R\)) polarizations. The resulting combined measurements of the polarization fractions are \(F_0\) = 0.693 ± 0.014 and \(F_L\) = 0.315 ± 0.011. The fraction \(F_R\) is calculated from the unitarity constraint to be \(F_R\) = −0.008 ± 0.007. These results are in agreement with the standard model predictions at next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics and represent an improvement in precision of 25 (29)% for \(F_0\) (\(F_L\)) with respect to the most precise single measurement. A limit on anomalous right-handed vector (\(V_R\)), and left- and right-handed tensor (\(g_L\), \(g_R\)) tWb couplings is set while fixing all others to their standard model values. The allowed regions are [−0.11, 0.16] for \(V_R\), [−0.08, 0.05] for \(g_L\), and [−0.04, 0.02] for \(g_R\), at 95% confidence level. Limits on the corresponding Wilson coefficients are also derived.
Combinations of single-top-quark production cross-section measurements and |f_LV V_tb| determinations at √s = 7 and 8 TeV with the ATLAS and CMS experiments
(2019) CMS Collaboration; Buccilli, A.; Charaf, O.; Cooper, S.I.; Henderson, C.; Rumerio, P.; West, C.; University of Alabama Tuscaloosa
This paper presents the combinations of single-top-quark production cross-section measurements by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations, using data from LHC proton-proton collisions at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 7 and 8 TeV corresponding to integrated luminosities of 1.17 to 5.1 fb⁻¹ at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 7 TeV and 12.2 to 20.3 fb⁻¹ at \(\sqrt{s}\)=8TeV. These combinations are performed per centre-of-mass energy and for each production mode: \(t\)-channel, \(tW\), and \(s\)-channel. The combined \(t\)-channel cross-sections are 67.5 ± 5.7 pb and 87.7 ± 5.8 pb at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 7 and 8 TeV respectively. The combined \(tW\) cross-sections are 16.3 ± 4.1 pb and 23.1 ± 3.6 pb at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 7 and 8 TeV respectively. For the \(s\)-channel cross-section, the combination yields 4.9 ± 1.4 pb at \(\sqrt{s}\)=8TeV. The square of the magnitude of the CKM matrix element \(V_{tb}\) multiplied by a form factor f LV is determined for each production mode and centre-of-mass energy, using the ratio of the measured cross-section to its theoretical prediction. It is assumed that the top-quark-related CKM matrix elements obey the relation \(|V_{td}|,|V_{ts}| ≪ |V_{tb}|\). All the \(|f_{LV}V_{tb}|^2\) determinations, extracted from individual ratios at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 7 and 8 TeV, are combined, resulting in \(|f_{LV}V_{tb}|\) = 1.02 ± 0.04 (meas.) ± 0.02 (theo.). All combined measurements are consistent with their corresponding Standard Model predictions.
