An embedding technique to determine tau tau backgrounds in proton-proton collision data
(Journal of Instrumentation, 2019-06)
An embedding technique is presented to estimate standard model tau tau backgrounds from data with minimal simulation input. In the data, the muons are removed from reconstructed mu mu events and replaced with simulated tau ...
Centrality and pseudorapidity dependence of the transverse energy density in pPb collisions ats root s(NN)=5.02 TeV
(Physical Review C, 2019-08-01)
The almost hermetic coverage of the CMS detector is used to measure the distribution of transverse energy, E-T, over 13.2 units of pseudorapidity, eta, for pPb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of root ...
Search for a W ' boson decaying to a tau lepton and a neutrino in proton-proton collisions at root s=13 TeV
(Physics Letters B, 2019-05-10)
A search for a new high-mass resonance decaying to a tau lepton and a neutrino is reported. The analysis uses proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC at root s= 13 TeV, corresponding to an ...
