寻找在sqrt(s)= 13 TeV质子-质子碰撞中衰变为Z玻色子和顶夸克或底夸克的类矢量夸克的单一产生

Search for single production of vector-like quarks decaying to a Z boson and a top or a bottom quark in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 13 TeV

CMS Collaboration

摘要:

搜索的单一生产的矢量类夸克,T和B,衰变成Z玻色子和顶或底夸克,分别。搜索是使用CMS实验收集的数据在大型强子对撞机在质子-质子碰撞在sqrt(s)= 13 TeV,对应于一个积分亮度的2.3个反femtobarns。还考虑了通过重Z'共振衰变的奇异T夸克产生模。搜索是在事件中进行的Z玻色子衰变轻子,伴随着底夸克或顶夸克衰变强子。未观察到超过标准模型背景预期的事件。在95%的置信水平下,排除了1.26和0.13 pb的T和B夸克的产生截面和分支分数的乘积,所考虑的共振质量范围在0.7和1.7 TeV之间。当Z '玻色子质量在1.5 ~ 2.5TeV范围内时,Z'玻色子衰变到Tt终态的产生截面和分支分数的乘积的极限在0.31 ~ 0.13pb之间。这是第一次搜索在13 TeV的单一生产矢量类夸克的事件与Z玻色子衰变轻子伴随着助推喷气机。

英文摘要:

A search for single production of vector-like quarks, T and B, decaying into a Z boson and a top or a bottom quark, respectively, is presented. The search is performed using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.3 inverse femtobarns. An exotic T quark production mode through the decay of a heavy Z' resonance is also considered. The search is performed in events with a Z boson decaying leptonically, accompanied by a bottom or a top quark decaying hadronically. No excess of events is observed over the standard model background expectation. Products of production cross section and branching fraction for T and B quarks from 1.26 and 0.13 pb are excluded at 95% confidence level for the range of resonance mass considered, which is between 0.7 and 1.7 TeV. Limits on the product of the Z' boson production cross section and branching fraction, with the Z' boson decaying to the Tt final state, are set between 0.31 and 0.13 pb, for Z' boson masses in the range from 1.5 to 2.5 TeV. This is the first search at 13 TeV for single production of vector-like quarks in events with a Z boson decaying leptonically accompanied by boosted jets.
