    International audienceA search is reported for charge-parity D0^0\to KS0^0_\mathrm{S}KS0^0_\mathrm{S}CPCP violation in D0^0\to KS0^0_\mathrm{S}KS0^0_\mathrm{S} decays, using data collected in proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV recorded by the CMS experiment in 2018. The analysis uses a dedicated data set that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 41.6 fb1^{-1}, which consists of about 10 billion events containing a pair of ẖadrons, nearly all of which decay to charm hadrons. The flavor of the neutral D meson is determined by the pion charge in the reconstructed decays D+^{*+}\to D0π+^0\pi^+ and D^{*-}\to D0π^0\pi^-. The D0^0\to KS0^0_\mathrm{S}KS0^0_\mathrm{S}CPCP asymmetry in D0^0\to KS0^0_\mathrm{S}KS0^0_\mathrm{S} is measured to be ACPA_{CP}( KS0^0_\mathrm{S}KS0^0_\mathrm{S}) = (6.2 ±\pm 3.0 ±\pm 0.2 ±\pm 0.8)%, where the three uncertainties represent the statistical uncertainty, the systematic uncertainty, and the uncertainty in the measurement of the D0^0 \to KS0^0_\mathrm{S}KS0^0_\mathrm{S} CPCP asymmetry in the D0^0 \to KS0π+π^0_\mathrm{S}\pi^+\pi^- decay. This is the first D0^0 \to KS0^0_\mathrm{S}KS0^0_\mathrm{S} CPCP asymmetry measurement by CMS in the charm sector as well as the first to utilize a fully hadronic final state

    The CMS Statistical Analysis and Combination Tool: COMBINE

    No full text
    International audienceThis paper describes the COMBINE software package used for statistical analyses by the CMS Collaboration. The package, originally designed to perform searches for a Higgs boson and the combined analysis of those searches, has evolved to become the statistical analysis tool presently used in the majority of measurements and searches performed by the CMS Collaboration. It is not specific to the CMS experiment, and this paper is intended to serve as a reference for users outside of the CMS Collaboration, providing an outline of the most salient features and capabilities. Readers are provided with the possibility to run COMBINE and reproduce examples provided in this paper using a publicly available container image. Since the package is constantly evolving to meet the demands of ever-increasing data sets and analysis sophistication, this paper cannot cover all details of COMBINE. However, the online documentation referenced within this paper provides an up-to-date and complete user guide

    Dark sector searches with the CMS experiment

    No full text
    Astrophysical observations provide compelling evidence for gravitationally interacting dark matter in the universe that cannot be explained by the standard model of particle physics. The extraordinary amount of data from the CERN LHC presents a unique opportunity to shed light on the nature of dark matter at unprecedented collision energies. This Report comprehensively reviews the most recent searches with the CMS experiment for particles and interactions belonging to a dark sector and for dark-sector mediators. Models with invisible massive particles are probed by searches for signatures of missing transverse momentum recoiling against visible standard model particles. Searches for mediators are also conducted via fully visible final states. The results of these searches are compared with those obtained from direct-detection experiments. Searches for alternative scenarios predicting more complex dark sectors with multiple new particles and new forces are also presented. Many of these models include long-lived particles, which could manifest themselves with striking unconventional signatures with relatively small amounts of background. Searches for such particles are discussed and their impact on dark-sector scenarios is evaluated. Many results and interpretations have been newly obtained for this Report.Astrophysical observations provide compelling evidence for gravitationally interacting dark matter in the universe that cannot be explained by the standard model of particle physics.

    Search for baryon number violation in top quark production and decay using proton-proton collisions at s= \sqrt{s} = 13 TeV

    No full text
    A search is presented for baryon number violating interactions in top quark production and decay. The analysis uses data from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC with an integrated luminosity of 138 fb1 ^{-1} . Candidate events are selected by requiring two oppositely-charged leptons (electrons or muons) and exactly one jet identified as originating from a bottom quark. Multivariate discriminants are used to separate the signal from the background. No significant deviation from the standard model prediction is observed. Upper limits are placed on the strength of baryon number violating couplings. For the first time the production of single top quarks via baryon number violating interactions is studied. This allows the search to set the most stringent constraints to date on the branching fraction of the top quark decay to a lepton, an up-type quark (u or c), and a down-type quark (d, s, or b). The results improve the previous bounds by three to six orders of magnitude based on the fermion flavor combination of the baryon number violating interactions.A search is presented for baryon number violating interactions in top quark production and decay.

    Measurement of inclusive and differential cross sections for W+^{+}W^{-} production in proton-proton collisions at s= \sqrt{s} = 13.6 TeV

    No full text
    Measurements at s= \sqrt{s}= 13.6 TeV of the opposite-sign W boson pair production cross section in proton-proton collisions are presented. The data used in this study were collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC in 2022, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 34.8 fb1 ^{-1} . Events are selected by requiring one electron and one muon of opposite charge. A maximum likelihood fit is performed on signal- and background-enriched data categories defined by the flavour and charge of the leptons, the number of jets, and number of jets originating from b quarks. An inclusive W+^{+}W^{-} production cross section of 125.7 ± \pm 5.6 pb is measured, in agreement with standard model predictions. Cross sections are also reported in a fiducial region close to that of the detector acceptance, both inclusively and differentially, as a function of the jet multiplicity in the event. For first time in proton-proton collisions, WW events with at least two reconstructed jets are studied and compared with recent theoretical predictions.Measurements at s\sqrt{s} = 13.6 TeV of the opposite-sign W boson pair production cross section in proton-proton collisions are presented.

    Observation of the Ξb\Xi^-_\mathrm{b}\toψ\psi(2S)Ξ\Xi^- decay and studies of the Ξb0\Xi_\mathrm{b}^{\ast{}0} baryon in proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV

    No full text
    International audienceThe first observation of the decay Ξb\Xi^-_\mathrm{b}\toψ\psi(2S)Ξ\Xi^- and measurement of the branching ratio of Ξb\Xi^-_\mathrm{b}\toψ\psi(2S)Ξ\Xi^- to Ξb\Xi^-_\mathrm{b}\to J/ψ\psiΞ\Xi^- are presented. The J/ψ\psi and ψ\psi(2S) mesons are reconstructed using their dimuon decay modes. The results are based on proton-proton colliding beam data from the LHC collected by the CMS experiment at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV in 2016-2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb1^{-1}. The branching fraction ratio is measured to be B\mathcal{B}(Ξb\Xi^-_\mathrm{b}\toψ\psi(2S)Ξ\Xi^-)/B\mathcal{B}(Ξb\Xi^-_\mathrm{b}\to J/ψ\psiΞ\Xi^-) = 0.840.19+0.21^{+0.21}_{-0.19} (stat) ±\pm 0.10 (syst) ±\pm 0.02 (B\mathcal{B}), where the last uncertainty comes from the uncertainties in the branching fractions of the charmonium states. New measurements of the Ξb0\Xi_\mathrm{b}^{\ast{}0} baryon mass and natural width are also presented, using the Ξbπ+\Xi_\mathrm{b}^-\pi^+ final state, where the Ξb\Xi^-_\mathrm{b} baryon is reconstructed through the decays J/ψΞ\psi \Xi^-, ψ\psi(2S)Ξ\Xi^-, J/ψΛ\psi \LambdaK^-, and J/ψΣ0\psi \Sigma^0K^-. Finally, the fraction of the Ξb\Xi^-_\mathrm{b} baryons produced from Ξb0\Xi_\mathrm{b}^{\ast{}0} decays is determined

    Search for the decay of the Higgs boson to a pair of light pseudoscalar bosons in the final state with four bottom quarks in proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV

    No full text
    International audienceA search is presented for the decay of the 125 GeV Higgs boson (H) to a pair of new light pseudoscalar bosons (a), followed by the prompt decay of each a boson to a bottom quark-antiquark pair, H \to aa \tobbˉbbˉ\mathrm{b\bar{b}b\bar{b}}. The analysis is performed using a data sample of proton-proton collisions collected with the CMS detector at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb1^{-1}. To reduce the background from standard model processes, the search requires the Higgs boson to be produced in association with a leptonically decaying W or Z boson. The analysis probes the production of new light bosons in a 15 <\ltmam_\mathrm{a}<\lt 60 GeV mass range. Assuming the standard model predictions for the Higgs boson production cross sections for pp \to WH and ZH, model independent upper limits at 95% confidence level are derived for the branching fraction B\mathcal{B}(H \to aa \to bbˉbbˉ\mathrm{b\bar{b}b\bar{b}}). The combined WH and ZH observed upper limit on the branching fraction ranges from 1.10 for ma=m_\mathrm{a} = 20 GeV to 0.36 for ma=m_\mathrm{a} = 60 GeV, complementing other measurements in the μμττ\mu\mu\tau\tau, ττττ\tau\tau\tau\tau and bb\ell\ell (=\ell= μ\mu,τ\tau) channels

    Observation of the J/ψ\psi \to μ+μμ+μ\mu^+\mu^-\mu^+\mu^- decay in proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV

    International audienceThe J/ψ\psi\toμ+μμ+μ\mu^+\mu^-\mu^+\mu^- decay has been observed with a statistical significance in excess of five standard deviations. The analysis is based on an event sample of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected by the CMS experiment in 2018 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 33.6 fb1{-1}. Normalizing to the J/ψ\psi\toμ+μ\mu^+\mu^- decay mode leads to a branching fraction [10.12.7+3.3^{+3.3}_{-2.7} (stat) ±\pm 0.4 (syst) ]×\times 107^{-7}, a value that is consistent with the standard model prediction
