Search for resonant t t ¯production in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV

A search for a heavy resonance decaying into a top quark and antiquark (tt) pair is performed using proton-proton collisions at √ s = 13 TeV. The search uses the data set collected with the CMS detector in 2016, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 . The analysis considers...

description A search for a heavy resonance decaying into a top quark and antiquark (tt) pair is performed using proton-proton collisions at √ s = 13 TeV. The search uses the data set collected with the CMS detector in 2016, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 . The analysis considers three exclusive final 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 significant 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.
