Article Citation - WoS: 87Citation - Scopus: 115Measurement of the B+ Production Cross Section in Pp Collisions at ?s=7tev(American Physical Society, 2011) Karapınar, Güler; Demir, Durmuş AliMeasurements of the total and differential cross sections dσ/dpTB and dσ/dyB for B+ mesons produced in pp collisions at √s=7TeV are presented. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 5.8pb-1 collected by the CMS experiment operating at the LHC. The exclusive decay B+→J/ψK+, with J/ψ→μ+μ-, is used to detect B+ mesons and to measure the production cross section as a function of pTB and yB. The total cross section for pTB>5GeV and |yB|<2.4 is measured to be 28.1±2.4±2.0±3.1μb, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the last is from the luminosity measurement. © 2011 American Physical Society.Article Citation - WoS: 73Citation - Scopus: 74Measurement of the B0 Production Cross Section in Pp Collisions at √s=7tev(American Physical Society, 2011) Karapınar, Güler; Demir, Durmuş AliMeasurements of the differential production cross sections dσ/dpTB and dσ/dyB for B0 mesons produced in pp collisions at √s=7TeV are presented. The data set used was collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 40pb-1. The production cross section is measured from B0 meson decays reconstructed in the exclusive final state J/ψKS0, with the subsequent decays J/ψ→μ +μ- and KS0→π+π-. The total cross section for pTB>5GeV and <2.2 is measured to be 33.2±2.5±3.5μb, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. © 2011 American Physical Society.Article Citation - WoS: 610Citation - Scopus: 672Observation and Studies of Jet Quenching in Pbpb Collisions at ?snn=2.76 Tev(American Physical Society, 2011) Karapınar, Güler; Demir, Durmuş AliJet production in PbPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV was studied with the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the LHC, using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.7μb-1. Jets are reconstructed using the energy deposited in the CMS calorimeters and studied as a function of collision centrality. With increasing collision centrality, a striking imbalance in dijet transverse momentum is observed, consistent with jet quenching. The observed effect extends from the lower cutoff used in this study (jet pT=120 GeV/c) up to the statistical limit of the available data sample (jet pT≈210 GeV/c). Correlations of charged particle tracks with jets indicate that the momentum imbalance is accompanied by a softening of the fragmentation pattern of the second most energetic, away-side jet. The dijet momentum balance is recovered when integrating low transverse momentum particles distributed over a wide angular range relative to the direction of the away-side jet. © 2011 American Physical Society.
