Article Synopsis
  • - A new method is introduced to estimate the energy and spread of b quark jets from proton-proton collisions at CERN's LHC, using data from 2017.
  • - The algorithm utilizes a deep feed-forward neural network trained on simulated b jets, incorporating jet composition, shape, and secondary vertex properties.
  • - The findings enhance the analysis of b jets, which aids in research such as the detection of Higgs boson decay.

Central exclusive and semiexclusive production of pairs is measured with the CMS detector in proton-proton collisions at the LHC at center-of-mass energies of 5.02 and 13TeV. The theoretical description of these nonperturbative processes, which have not yet been measured in detail at the LHC, poses a significant challenge to models.

A measurement is presented of differential cross sections for -channel single top quark and antiquark production in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 by the CMS experiment at the LHC. From a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 , events containing one muon or electron and two or three jets are analysed.

A search is presented for slepton pairs produced in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 . The search is carried out in events containing two leptons in the final state, on the assumption that each slepton decays primarily to a lepton and a neutralino. Events are considered in which each lepton decays to one or more hadrons and a neutrino, or in which one of the leptons decays instead to an electron or a muon and two neutrinos.
