Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 34Search for New Physics in the Lepton Plus Missing Transverse Momentum Final State in Proton-Proton Collisions at Root S=13 Tev(Springer, 2022) Karapınar, Güler; CMS CollaborationA search for physics beyond the standard model (SM) in final states with an electron or muon and missing transverse momentum is presented. The analysis uses data from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC in 2016-2018 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb(-1). No significant deviation from the SM prediction is observed. Model-independent limits are set on the production cross section of W' bosons decaying into lepton-plus-neutrino final states. Within the framework of the sequential standard model, with the combined results from the electron and muon decay channels a W' boson with mass less than 5.7 TeV is excluded at 95% confidence level. Results on a SM precision test, the determination of the oblique electroweak W parameter, are presented using LHC data for the first time. These results together with those from the direct W' resonance search are used to extend existing constraints on composite Higgs scenarios. This is the first experimental exclusion on compositeness parameters using results from LHC data other than Higgs boson measurements.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 25Search for Single Production of a Vector-Like T Quark Decaying To a Top Quark and a Z Boson in the Final State With Jets and Missing Transverse Momentum at Root S=13 Tev(Springer, 2022) Karapınar, Güler; CMS CollaborationA search is presented for single production of a vector-like T quark with charge 2/3 e, in the decay channel featuring a top quark and a Z boson, with the top quark decaying hadronically and the Z boson decaying to neutrinos. The search uses data collected by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb(-1) recorded at the CERN LHC in 2016-2018. The search is sensitive to a T quark mass between 0.6 and 1.8 TeV with decay widths ranging from negligibly small up to 30% of the T quark mass. Reconstruction strategies for the top quark are based on the degree of Lorentz boosting of its final state. At 95% confidence level, the upper limit on the product of the cross section and branching fraction for a T quark of small decay width varies between 15 and 602 fb, depending on its mass. For a T quark with decay widths between 10 and 30% of its mass, this upper limit ranges between 16 and 836 fb. For most of the studied range, the results provide the best limits to date. This is the first search for single T quark production based on the full Run 2 data set of the LHC.Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 32Search for Dark Photons in Higgs Boson Production Via Vector Boson Fusion in Proton-Proton Collisions at Root S=13 Tev(Springer, 2021) Karapınar, Güler; CMS CollaborationA search is presented for a Higgs boson that is produced via vector boson fusion and that decays to an undetected particle and an isolated photon. The search is performed by the CMS collaboration at the LHC, using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 130 fb(-1), recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV in 2016-2018. No significant excess of events above the expectation from the standard model background is found. The results are interpreted in the context of a theoretical model in which the undetected particle is a massless dark photon. An upper limit is set on the product of the cross section for production via vector boson fusion and the branching fraction for such a Higgs boson decay, as a function of the Higgs boson mass. For a Higgs boson mass of 125 GeV, assuming the standard model production rates, the observed (expected) 95% confidence level upper limit on the branching fraction is 3.5 (2.8)%. This is the first search for such decays in the vector boson fusion channel. Combination with a previous search for Higgs bosons produced in association with a Z boson results in an observed (expected) upper limit on the branching fraction of 2.9 (2.1)% at 95% confidence level.Article Citation - WoS: 26Citation - Scopus: 46Search for a Light Pseudoscalar Higgs Boson in the Boosted Mu Mu Tau Tau Final State in Proton-Proton Collisions at Root S=13 Tev(Springer Verlag, 2020) Karapınar, GülerA search for a light pseudoscalar Higgs boson (a) decaying from the 125 GeV (or a heavier) scalar Higgs boson (H) is performed using the 2016 LHC proton-proton collision data at root s = 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1), collected by the CMS experiment. The analysis considers gluon fusion and vector boson fusion production of the H, followed by the decay H -> aa -> mu mu tau tau, and considers pseudoscalar masses in the range 3.6 < m(a) < 21 GeV. Because of the large mass difference between the H and the a bosons and the small masses of the a boson decay products, both the mu mu and the tau tau pairs have high Lorentz boost and are collimated. The tau tau reconstruction efficiency is increased by modifying the standard technique for hadronic tau lepton decay reconstruction to account for a nearby muon. No significant signal is observed. Model-independent limits are set at 95% confidence level, as a function of m(a), on the branching fraction (B) for H -> aa -> mu mu tau tau, down to 1.5 (2.0)x10(-4) for m(H) = 125 (300) GeV. Model-dependent limits on B(H -> aa) are set within the context of two Higgs doublets plus singlet models, with the most stringent results obtained for Type-III models. These results extend current LHC searches for heavier a bosons that decay to resolved lepton pairs and provide the first such bounds for an H boson with a mass above 125 GeV.Article Citation - WoS: 115Citation - Scopus: 134Search for High-Mass Resonances in Dilepton Final States in Proton-Proton Collisions at Root S=13 Tev(Springer Verlag, 2018) Karapınar, GülerA search is presented for new high-mass resonances decaying into electron or muon pairs. The search uses proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13TeV collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2016, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 fb(-1). Observations are in agreement with standard model expectations. Upper limits on the product of a new resonance production cross section and branching fraction to dileptons are calculated in a model-independent manner. This permits the interpretation of the limits in models predicting a narrow dielectron or dimuon resonance. A scan of different intrinsic width hypotheses is performed. Limits are set on the masses of various hypothetical particles. For the Z(SSM)' (Z(psi)') particle, which arises in the sequential standard model (superstring-inspired model), a lower mass limit of 4.50 (3.90) TeV is set at 95% confidence level. The lightest Kaluza-Klein graviton arising in the Randall-Sundrum model of extra dimensions, with coupling parameters k/(M) over bar (Pl) of 0.01, 0.05, and 0.10, is excluded at 95% con fi dence level below 2.10, 3.65, and 4.25TeV, respectively. In a simpli fi ed model of dark matter production via a vector or axial vector mediator, limits at 95% con fi dence level are obtained on the masses of the dark matter particle and its mediator.Article Citation - WoS: 27Citation - Scopus: 48Search for the Decay of a Higgs Boson in the Ll Gamma Channel in Proton-Proton Collisions at Root S=13 Tev(Springer Verlag, 2018) Karapınar, GülerA search for a Higgs boson decaying into a pair of electrons or muons and a photon is described. Higgs boson decays to a Z boson and a photon (H Z , = e or ), or to two photons, one of which has an internal conversion into a muon pair (H (*) ) were considered. The analysis is performed using a data set recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). No significant excess above the background prediction has been found. Limits are set on the cross section for a standard model Higgs boson decaying to opposite-sign electron or muon pairs and a photon. The observed limits on cross section times the corresponding branching fractions vary between 1.4 and 4.0 (6.1 and 11.4) times the standard model cross section for H (*) (H Z ) in the 120-130 GeV mass range of the system. The H (*) and H Z analyses are combined for m(H) =125GeV, obtaining an observed (expected) 95% confidence level upper limit of 3.9 (2.0) times the standard model cross section.Article Citation - WoS: 26Citation - Scopus: 27Search for Heavy Resonances Decaying Into Two Higgs Bosons or Into a Higgs Boson and a W or Z Boson in Proton-Proton Collisions at 13 Tev(Springer Verlag, 2019) Karapınar, Güler; CMS CollaborationA search is presented for massive narrow resonances decaying either into two Higgs bosons, or into a Higgs boson and a W or Z boson. The decay channels considered are HHbb+- and VHqq-, where H denotes the Higgs boson, and V denotes the W or Z boson. This analysis is based on a data sample of proton-proton collisions collected at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV by the CMS Collaboration, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). For the TeV-scale mass resonances considered, substructure techniques provide ways to differentiate among the hadronization products from vector boson decays to quarks, Higgs boson decays to bottom quarks, and quark- or gluon-induced jets. Reconstruction techniques are used that have been specifically optimized to select events in which the tau lepton pair is highly boosted. The observed data are consistent with standard model expectations and upper limits are set at 95% confidence level on the product of cross section and branching fraction for resonance masses between 0.9 and 4.0 TeV. Exclusion limits are set in the context of bulk radion and graviton models:spin-0 radion resonances are excluded below a mass of 2.7 TeV at 95% confidence level. In the spin-1 heavy vector triplet framework, mass-degenerate W and Z resonances with dominant couplings to the standard model gauge bosons are excluded below a mass of 2.8 TeV at 95% confidence level. These are the first limits for massive resonances at the TeV scale with these decay channels at 13 TeV.Article Citation - WoS: 60Citation - Scopus: 78Search for Heavy Neutrinos and Third-Generation Leptoquarks in Hadronic States of Two Leptons and Two Jets in Proton-Proton Collisions at Root S=13 Tev(Springer Verlag, 2019) Karapınar, Güler; CMS CollaborationA search for new particles has been conducted using events with two high transverse momentum leptons that decay hadronically and at least two energetic jets. The analysis is performed using data from proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV, collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2016 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). The observed data are consistent with standard model expectations. The results are interpreted in the context of two physics models. The first model involves right-handed charged bosons, W-R, that decay to heavy right-handed Majorana neutrinos, N ( = e, , ), arising in a left-right symmetric extension of the standard model. The model considers that N-e and N are too heavy to be detected at the LHC. Assuming that the N mass is half of the W-R mass, masses of the W-R boson below 3.50 TeV are excluded at 95% confidence level. Exclusion limits are also presented considering different scenarios for the mass ratio between N and W-R, as a function of W-R mass. In the second model, pair production of third-generation scalar leptoquarks that decay into bb is considered, resulting in an observed exclusion region with leptoquark masses below 1.02 TeV, assuming a 100% branching fraction for the leptoquark decay to a lepton and a bottom quark. These results represent the most stringent limits to date on these models.Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 56Search for Resonant T(t)over-Bar Production in Proton-Proton Collisions at Root S=13 Tev(Springer Verlag, 2019) Karapınar, Güler; CMS CollaborationA search for a heavy resonance decaying into a top quark and antiquark (tt) pair is performed using proton-proton collisions at p s = 13TeV. The search uses the data set collected with the CMS detector in 2016, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb. The analysis considers three exclusive fi nal states and uses reconstruction techniques that are optimized for top quarks with high Lorentz boosts, which requires the use of nonisolated leptons and jet substructure techniques. No signi fi cant excess of events relative to the expected yield from standard model processes is observed. Upper limits on the production cross section of heavy resonances decaying to a tt pair are calculated. Limits are derived for a leptophobic topcolor Z 0 resonance with widths of 1, 10, and 30%, relative to the mass of the resonance, and exclude masses up to 3.80, 5.25, and 6.65TeV, respectively. Kaluza-Klein excitations of the gluon in the Randall-Sundrum model are excluded up to 4.55TeV. To date, these are the most stringent limits on tt resonances.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 50Search for New Neutral Higgs Bosons Through the H -> Za -><mml:msup>l+</Mml:msup><mml:msup>l-< Stretchy="true"><overbar></Mml:mover> Process in Pp Collisions at <mml:msqrt>s</Mml:msqrt>=13 Tev(Springer Verlag, 2020) Karapınar, Güler; CMS CollaborationThis paper reports on a search for an extension to the scalar sector of the standard model, where a new CP-even (odd) boson decays to a Z boson and a lighter CP-odd (even) boson, and the latter further decays to a b quark pair. The Z boson is reconstructed via its decays to electron or muon pairs. The analysed data were recorded in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy <mml:msqrt>s</mml:msqrt> = 13 TeV, collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC during 2016, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). Data and predictions from the standard model are in agreement within the uncertainties. Upper limits at 95% confidence level are set on the production cross section times branching fraction, with masses of the new bosons up to 1000 GeV. The results are interpreted in the context of the two-Higgs-doublet model.
