Open AccessSearch for disappearing tracks in proton-proton collisions at \( \sqrt{s}=8 \) TeV
A search is presented for long-lived charged particles that decay within the CMS detector and produce the signature of a disappearing track. Disappearing tracks are identified as those with little or no associ...

Open AccessSearch for decays of stopped long-lived particles produced in proton–proton collisions at \(\sqrt{s}= 8\,\text {TeV} \)
A search has been performed for long-lived particles that could have come to rest within the CMS detector, using the time intervals between LHC beam crossings. The existence of such particles could be deduced ...

Open AccessSearch for physics beyond the standard model in events with two leptons, jets, and missing transverse momentum in pp collisions at \( \sqrt{s} \) = 8 TeV
A search is presented for physics beyond the standard model in final states with two opposite-sign same-flavor leptons, jets, and missing transverse momentum. The data sample corresponds to an integrated lumin...

Article
Open AccessSearch for vector-like T quarks decaying to top quarks and Higgs bosons in the all-hadronic channel using jet substructure
A search is performed for a vector-like heavy T quark that is produced in pairs and that decays to a top quark and a Higgs boson. The data analysed correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb−1 collected wi...

Open AccessConstraints on the pMSSM, AMSB model and on other models from the search for long-lived charged particles in proton–proton collisions at \(\sqrt{s} =8\,\text {TeV} \)
Stringent limits are set on the long-lived lepton-like sector of the phenomenological minimal supersymmetric standard model (pMSSM) and the anomaly-mediated supersymmetry breaking (AMSB) model. The limits are ...
