在$\sqrt{s} = $ 13 TeV寻找与光子有关的低质量夸克-反夸克共振

Search for low-mass quark-antiquark resonances produced in association with a photon at $\sqrt{s} = $ 13 TeV

CMS Collaboration

摘要:

寻找衰变为夸克-反夸克对的窄的低质量共振态。搜索是基于质子-质子碰撞事件收集在13 TeV的CMS探测器在欧洲核子研究中心的LHC。数据样本对应于2016年记录的35.9 fb $^{-1}$的积分亮度。搜索考虑的情况下,由于硬光子的初始状态辐射的共振具有高的横向动量。为了研究这一过程,共振的衰减产物被重建为一个大半径射流与两个分叉的子结构。该信号将被识别为射流不变质谱中的局部过量。在10至125 GeV的质量范围内没有观察到这种共振的证据。在95%的置信水平上的共振衰减到夸克对的耦合强度的上限。用这种光子触发策略获得的结果提供了在强子对撞机上获得的低于50 GeV的夸克-反夸克共振质量的第一个直接约束。

英文摘要:

A search for narrow low-mass resonances decaying to quark-antiquark pairs is presented. The search is based on proton-proton collisions events collected at 13 TeV by the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$, recorded in 2016. The search considers the case where the resonance has high transverse momentum due to initial-state radiation of a hard photon. To study this process, the decay products of the resonance are reconstructed as a single large-radius jet with two-pronged substructure. The signal would be identified as a localized excess in the jet invariant mass spectrum. No evidence for such a resonance is observed in the mass range 10 to 125 GeV. Upper limits at the 95% confidence level are set on the coupling strength of resonances decaying to quark pairs. The results obtained with this photon trigger strategy provide the first direct constraints on quark-antiquark resonance masses below 50 GeV obtained at a hadron collider.
