在$\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV轻子加合并喷流末态中寻找一个衰减为一对矢量玻色子的重共振

Search for a heavy resonance decaying to a pair of vector bosons in the lepton plus merged jet final state at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV

CMS Collaboration

摘要:

使用CMS探测器的数据搜索一种新的重粒子衰变为一对矢量玻色子(WW或WZ),对应于2016年在13 TeV的质心能量下收集的质子-质子碰撞中收集的35.9 fb $^{-1}$的积分亮度。其中一个玻色子必须是W玻色子,衰变为e $ν$或$μν$,而另一个玻色子必须重建为单个大质量喷流,其子结构与W玻色子或Z玻色子衰变产生的高能夸克对的子结构相容。在1.0和4.5 TeV之间的共振质量范围内进行搜索。观察到的质量接近1.4 TeV的最大偏差的背景只有假设,并对应于当地的意义为2.5标准差。结果被解释为共振产生截面的上限。将排除的截面值与体引力子和重矢量三重态模型中理论计算的预期值进行比较,在95%的置信水平下,分别排除了质量小于1.07 TeV的自旋2 WW共振和质量小于3.05 TeV的自旋1 WZ共振。

英文摘要:

A search for a new heavy particle decaying to a pair of vector bosons (WW or WZ) is presented using data from the CMS detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$ collected in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV in 2016. One of the bosons is required to be a W boson decaying to e$ν$ or $μν$, while the other boson is required to be reconstructed as a single massive jet with substructure compatible with that of a highly-energetic quark pair from a W or Z boson decay. The search is performed in the resonance mass range between 1.0 and 4.5 TeV. The largest deviation from the background-only hypothesis is observed for a mass near 1.4 TeV and corresponds to a local significance of 2.5 standard deviations. The result is interpreted as an upper bound on the resonance production cross section. Comparing the excluded cross section values and the expectations from theoretical calculations in the bulk graviton and heavy vector triplet models, spin-2 WW resonances with mass smaller than 1.07 TeV and spin-1 WZ resonances lighter than 3.05 TeV, respectively, are excluded at 95% confidence level.
