Article Citation - WoS: 41Citation - Scopus: 42Measurement of Inclusive Jet Production and Nuclear Modifications in Ppb Collisions at √snn = 5.02 Tev(Springer Nature, 2016) Khachatryan,V.; Sirunyan,A.M.; Tumasyan,A.; Adam,W.; Asilar,E.; Bergauer,T.; Fernandez,M.Inclusive jet production in pPb collisions at a nucleon–nucleon (NN) center-of-mass energy of √sNN= 5.02TeV is studied with the CMS detector at the LHC. A data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 30.1 nb- 1 is analyzed. The jet transverse momentum spectra are studied in seven pseudorapidity intervals covering the range - 2.0 < ηCM< 1.5 in the NN center-of-mass frame. The jet production yields at forward and backward pseudorapidity are compared and no significant asymmetry about ηCM= 0 is observed in the measured kinematic range. The measurements in the pPb system are compared to reference jet spectra obtained by extrapolation from previous measurements in pp collisions at √s=7TeV. In all pseudorapidity ranges, nuclear modifications in inclusive jet production are found to be small, as predicted by next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations that incorporate nuclear effects in the parton distribution functions. © 2016, CERN for the benefit of the CMS collaboration.Article Citation - WoS: 33Citation - Scopus: 75Search for an Exotic Decay of the Higgs Boson To a Pair of Light Pseudoscalars in the Final State With Two B Quarks and Two Τ Leptons in Proton–proton Collisions at S=13tev(Elsevier B.V., 2018) Sirunyan,A.M.; Tumasyan,A.; Adam,W.; Ambrogi,F.; Asilar,E.; Bergauer,T.; Adzic,P.A search for an exotic decay of the Higgs boson to a pair of light pseudoscalar bosons is performed for the first time in the final state with two b quarks and two τ leptons. The search is motivated in the context of models of physics beyond the standard model (SM), such as two Higgs doublet models extended with a complex scalar singlet (2HDM + S), which include the next-to-minimal supersymmetric SM (NMSSM). The results are based on a data set of proton–proton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb−1, accumulated by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2016 at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV. Masses of the pseudoscalar boson between 15 and 60GeV are probed, and no excess of events above the SM expectation is observed. Upper limits between 3 and 12% are set on the branching fraction B(h→aa→2τ2b) assuming the SM production of the Higgs boson. Upper limits are also set on the branching fraction of the Higgs boson to two light pseudoscalar bosons in different 2HDM + S scenarios. Assuming the SM production cross section for the Higgs boson, the upper limit on this quantity is as low as 20% for a mass of the pseudoscalar of 40GeV in the NMSSM. © 2018 The Author(s)
