Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2First Measurement of the Forward Rapidity Gap Distribution in Ppb Collisions at √snn=8.16 Tev(Amer Physical Soc, 2023) Karapınar, Güler; CMS Collaboration; Ambrogi, F.; Bergauer, T.; Dragicevic, M.; Ero, J.; Zhokin, A.For the first time at LHC energies, the forward rapidity gap spectra from proton-lead collisions for both proton and lead dissociation processes are presented. The analysis is performed over 10.4 units of pseudorapidity at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of ffisffi than in previous measurements of diffractive production in proton-nucleus collisions. For lead dissociation processes, which correspond to the pomeron-lead event topology, the EPOS-LHC generator predictions are a factor of 2 below the data, but the model gives a reasonable description of the rapidity gap spectrum shape. For the pomeron-proton topology, the EPOS-LHC, QGSJET II, and HIJING predictions are all at least a factor of 5 lower than the data. The latter effect might be explained by a significant contribution of ultraperipheral photoproduction events mimicking the signature of diffractive processes. These data may be of significant help in understanding the high energy limit of quantum chromodynamics and for modeling cosmic ray air showers.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 24Measurement of the Mass Dependence of the Transverse Momentum of Lepton Pairs in Drell–yan Production in Proton–proton Collisions at √s=13tev(Institute for Ionics, 2023) Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J.W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Dragicevic, M.; Valle, A.E.D.The double differential cross sections of the Drell–Yan lepton pair (ℓ+ℓ- , dielectron or dimuon) production are measured as functions of the invariant mass mℓ ℓ , transverse momentum pT(ℓℓ) , and φη∗ . The φη∗ observable, derived from angular measurements of the leptons and highly correlated with pT(ℓℓ) , is used to probe the low- pT(ℓℓ) region in a complementary way. Dilepton masses up to 1 TeV are investigated. Additionally, a measurement is performed requiring at least one jet in the final state. To benefit from partial cancellation of the systematic uncertainty, the ratios of the differential cross sections for various mℓ ℓ ranges to those in the Z mass peak interval are presented. The collected data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 36.3 fb-1 of proton–proton collisions recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV . Measurements are compared with predictions based on perturbative quantum chromodynamics, including soft-gluon resummation. © 2023, The Author(s).Article Citation - WoS: 65Citation - Scopus: 87Measurement of the Higgs Boson Production Rate in Association With Top Quarks in Final States With Electrons, Muons, and Hadronically Decaying Tau Leptons at √s=13tev(Springer, 2021) Karapınar, Güler; CMS Collaboration; Karapınar, Güler; Adam, W.; Bergauer, T.; Dragicevic, M.; Eroe, J.; Vetens, W.The rate for Higgs (H) bosons production in association with either one (tH) or two (t (t) over barH) top quarks is measured in final states containing multiple electrons, muons, or tau leptons decaying to hadrons and a neutrino, using proton-proton collisions recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV by the CMS experiment. The analyzed data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb(-1). The analysis is aimed at events that contain H -> WW, H -> tt, or H -> ZZ decays and each of the top quark(s) decays either to lepton+jets or all-jet channels. Sensitivity to signal is maximized by including ten signatures in the analysis, depending on the lepton multiplicity. The separation among tH, t (t) over barH, and the backgrounds is enhanced through machine-learning techniques and matrix-element methods. The measured production rates for the ttH and tH signals correspond to 0.92 +/- 0.19 (stat)(-0.13)(+0.17) (syst) and 5.7 +/- 2.7 (stat)+/- 3.0 (syst) of their respective standard model (SM) expectations. The corresponding observed (expected) significance amounts to 4.7 (5.2) standard deviations for t (t) over barH, and to 1.4 (0.3) for tH production. Assuming that the Higgs boson coupling to the tau lepton is equal in strength to its expectation in the SM, the coupling y(t) of the Higgs boson to the top quark divided by its SM expectation, kappa(t) = y(t)/y(t)(SM), is constrained to be within -0.9 <kappa(t) < -0.7 or 0.7 <kappa(t) < 1.1, at 95% confidence level. This result is the most sensitive measurement of the ttH production rate to date.Article Citation - WoS: 26Citation - Scopus: 27Measurement of the Azimuthal Anisotropy of [Formula Presented] and [Formula Presented] Mesons in PbPb Collisions at S NN =5.02 TeV(Elsevier B.V., 2021) Sirunyan, A.M.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Ambrogi, F.; Bergauer, T.; Dragicevic, M.; De Jesus Damiao, D.The second-order Fourier coefficients (v<inf>2</inf>) characterizing the azimuthal distributions of [Formula presented] and [Formula presented] mesons produced in PbPb collisions at s<inf> <inf>NN</inf> </inf>=5.02TeV are studied. The [Formula presented] mesons are reconstructed in their dimuon decay channel, as measured by the CMS detector. The collected data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 1.7nb−1. The scalar product method is used to extract the v<inf>2</inf> coefficients of the azimuthal distributions. Results are reported for the rapidity range |y|<2.4, in the transverse momentum interval 0<p<inf>T</inf><50GeV/c, and in three centrality ranges of 10–30%, 30–50% and 50–90%. In contrast to the J/ψ mesons, the measured v<inf>2</inf> values for the [Formula presented] mesons are found to be consistent with zero. © 2021 The Author(s)Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 21Evidence for Top Quark Production in Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions(American Physical Society, 2020) Sirunyan, A.M.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Ambrogi, F.; Bergauer, T.; Dragicevic, M.; Polikarpov, S.Ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions recreate in the laboratory the thermodynamical conditions prevailing in the early universe up to 10-6 sec, thereby allowing the study of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), a state of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) matter with deconfined partons. The top quark, the heaviest elementary particle known, is accessible in nucleus-nucleus collisions at the CERN LHC, and constitutes a novel probe of the QGP. Here, we report the first evidence for the production of top quarks in nucleus-nucleus collisions, using lead-lead collision data at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV recorded by the CMS experiment. Two methods are used to measure the cross section for top quark pair production (σtt) via the selection of charged leptons (electrons or muons) and bottom quarks. One method relies on the leptonic information alone, and the second one exploits, in addition, the presence of bottom quarks. The measured cross sections, σtt=2.54-0.74+0.84 and 2.03-0.64+0.71 μb, respectively, are compatible with expectations from scaled proton-proton data and QCD predictions. © 2020 CERN.Article Citation - WoS: 73Citation - Scopus: 101Search for a Narrow Resonance Lighter Than 200 Gev Decaying To a Pair of Muons in Proton-Proton Collisions at S =13 Tev(American Physical Society, 2020) Sirunyan, A.M.; Karapınar, Güler; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Ambrogi, F.; Bergauer, T.; Dragicevic, M.; Iuzhakov, A.A search is presented for a narrow resonance decaying to a pair of oppositely charged muons using s=13 TeV proton-proton collision data recorded at the LHC. In the 45-75 and 110-200 GeV resonance mass ranges, the search is based on conventional triggering and event reconstruction techniques. In the 11.5-45 GeV mass range, the search uses data collected with dimuon triggers with low transverse momentum thresholds, recorded at high rate by storing a reduced amount of trigger-level information. The data correspond to integrated luminosities of 137 and 96.6 fb-1 for conventional and high-rate triggering, respectively. No significant resonant peaks are observed in the probed mass ranges. The search sets the most stringent constraints to date on a dark photon in the ∼30-75 and 110-200 GeV mass ranges.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 37Running of the Top Quark Mass From Proton-Proton Collisions at S=13 TeV(Elsevier B.V., 2020) Sirunyan, A.M.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Bergauer, T.; Dragicevic, M.; Erö, J.; Alves, G.A.The running of the top quark mass is experimentally investigated for the first time. The mass of the top quark in the modified minimal subtraction (MS‾) renormalization scheme is extracted from a comparison of the differential top quark-antiquark (tt¯) cross section as a function of the invariant mass of the tt¯ system to next-to-leading-order theoretical predictions. The differential cross section is determined at the parton level by means of a maximum-likelihood fit to distributions of final-state observables. The analysis is performed using tt¯ candidate events in the e± μ∓ channel in proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded by the CMS detector at the CERN LHC in 2016, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb−1. The extracted running is found to be compatible with the scale dependence predicted by the corresponding renormalization group equation. In this analysis, the running is probed up to a scale of the order of 1 TeV. © 2020 The Author(s)Article Citation - WoS: 115Citation - Scopus: 165A Measurement of the Higgs Boson Mass in the Diphoton Decay Channel(Elsevier B.V., 2020) Sirunyan, A.M.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Ambrogi, F.; Bergauer, T.; Dragicevic, M.; Borchsh, V.A measurement of the mass of the Higgs boson in the diphoton decay channel is presented. This analysis is based on 35.9fb−1 of proton-proton collision data collected during the 2016 LHC running period, with the CMS detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. A refined detector calibration and new analysis techniques have been used to improve the precision of this measurement. The Higgs boson mass is measured to be mH=125.78±0.26GeV. This is combined with a measurement of mH already performed in the H→ZZ→4ℓ decay channel using the same data set, giving mH=125.46±0.16GeV. This result, when further combined with an earlier measurement of mH using data collected in 2011 and 2012 with the CMS detector, gives a value for the Higgs boson mass of mH=125.38±0.14GeV. This is currently the most precise measurement of the mass of the Higgs boson. © 2020 The Author(s)
