A study is presented of the mass and spin-parity of the new boson recently observed at the LHC at a mass near 125 GeV. An integrated luminosity of 17.3 fb(-1), collected by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, is used.

The dimuon decay angular distributions are analyzed in three different polarization frames.

In either scenario, the new, heavy particle decays into a τ lepton and a b quark. The search is based on a data sample of pp collisions at sqrt[s] = 7 TeV, which is collected by the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.

The analysis is based on a 5.0 fb(-1) sample of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, collected by the CMS detector at the Large Hadron Collider.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA search for physics beyond the standard model is performed with events having one or more hadronically decaying leptons, highly energetic jets, and large transverse momentum imbalance. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.98 fb of proton-proton collisions at [Formula: see text] collected with the CMS detector at the LHC in 2011.

The analysis is based on a 4.98 fb sample of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, obtained with the CMS detector at the LHC.

A measurement of the inclusive WW+WZ diboson production cross section in proton-proton collisions is reported, based on events containing a leptonically decaying W boson and exactly two jets. The data sample, collected at [Formula: see text] with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb.
