A method for correcting the substructure of multiprong jets using the Lund jet plane
(Springer, 2025) Hayrapetyan, A.; Makarenko, V.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Bergauer, T.; Damanakis, K.
Many analyses at the CERN LHC exploit the substructure of jets to identify heavy resonances produced with high momenta that decay into multiple quarks and/or gluons. This paper presents a new technique for correcting the substructure of simulated large-radius jets from multiprong decays. The technique is based on reclustering the jet constituents into several subjets such that each subjet represents a single prong, and separately correcting the radiation pattern in the Lund jet plane of each subjet using a correction derived from data. The data presented here correspond to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb(-1) collected by the CMS experiment between 2016-2018 at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV. The correction procedure improves the agreement between data and simulation for several different substructure observables of multiprong jets. This technique establishes, for the first time, a robust calibration for the substructure of jets with four or more prongs, enabling future measurements and searches for new phenomena containing these signatures.
Angular analysis of the B0 → K*(892)0μ+μ- decay in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(Elsevier, 2025) Hayrapetyan, A.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Benato, L.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.
A full set of optimized observables is measured in an angular analysis of the decay B-0 -> K*(892)(0)mu(+)mu(-) using a sample of proton-proton collisions at root s = 13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb(-1). The analysis is performed in six bins of the squared invariant mass of the dimuon system, q(2), over the range 1.1 < q(2) < 16 GeV2. The results are among the most precise experimental measurements of the angular observables for this decay and are compared to a variety of predictions based on the standard model. Some of these predictions exhibit tension with the measurements.
Bottom quark energy loss and hadronization with B+ and Bs0 nuclear modification factors using pp and PbPb collisions at √sNN=5.02 TeV
(Springer, 2025) Hayrapetyan, A.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Damanakis, K.
The production cross sections of B-s(0) and B+ mesons are reported in proton-proton (pp) collisions recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC with a center-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 302 pb(-1). The cross sections are based on measurements of the B-s(0)-> J/psi(mu(+)mu(-))phi(1020)(K+K-) and B+-> J/psi(mu(+)mu(-))K+ decay channels. Results are presented in the transverse momentum (p(T)) range 7-50 GeV/c and the rapidity interval |y| < 2.4 for the B mesons. The measured p(T)-differential cross sections of B+ and B-s(0) in pp collisions are well described by fixed-order plus next-to-leading logarithm perturbative quantum chromodynamics calculations. Using previous PbPb collision measurements at the same nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy, the nuclear modification factors, R-AA, of the B mesons are determined. For p(T)> 10 GeV/c, both mesons are found to be suppressed in PbPb collisions (with R-AA values significantly below unity), with less suppression observed for the Bs0 mesons. In this p(T) range, the R-AA values for the B+ mesons are consistent with those for inclusive charged hadrons and D-0 mesons. Below 10 GeV/c, both B+ and B-s(0) are found to be less suppressed than either inclusive charged hadrons or D-0 mesons, with the B-s(0) R-AA value consistent with unity. The R-AA values found for the B+ and B-s(0) are compared to theoretical calculations, providing constraints on the mechanism of bottom quark energy loss and hadronization in the quark-gluon plasma, the hot and dense matter created in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions.

(American Physical Society, 2024) Hayrapetyan, A.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J.W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Damanakis, K.
A combination of fifteen top quark mass measurements performed by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC is presented. The datasets used correspond to an integrated luminosity of up to 5 and Formula Presented of proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, respectively. The combination includes measurements in top quark pair events that exploit both the semileptonic and hadronic decays of the top quark, and a measurement using events enriched in single top quark production via the electroweak Formula Presented channel. The combination accounts for the correlations between measurements and achieves an improvement in the total uncertainty of 31% relative to the most precise input measurement. The result is Formula Presented, with a total uncertainty of 0.33 GeV. © 2024 CERN, for the CMS and ATLASs Collaboration.

The combination accounts for the correlations between measurements and achieves an improvement in the total uncertainty of 31% relative to the most precise input measurement. The result is m(t) = 172.52 +/- 0.14(stat) +/- 0.30(stat) GeV, with a total uncertainty of 0.33 GeV.
Combined search for electroweak production of winos, binos, higgsinos, and sleptons in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(Amer Physical Soc, 2024) Hayrapetyan, A.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Damanakis, K.
A combination of the results of several searches for the electroweak production of the supersymmetric partners of standard model bosons, and of charged leptons, is presented. All searches use proton-proton collision data at root s = 13 TeV recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC in 2016-2018. The analyzed data correspond to an integrated luminosity of up to 137 fb(-1). The results are interpreted in terms of simplified models of supersymmetry. Two new interpretations are added with this combination: a model spectrum with the bino as the lightest supersymmetric particle together with mass-degenerate Higgsinos decaying to the bino and a standard model boson, and the compressed-spectrum region of a previously studied model of slepton pair production. Improved analysis techniques are employed to optimize sensitivity for the compressed spectra in the wino and slepton pair production models. The results are consistent with expectations from the standard model. The combination provides a more comprehensive coverage of the model parameter space than the individual searches, extending the exclusion by up to 125 GeV, and also targets some of the intermediate gaps in the mass coverage.
Constraints on anomalous Higgs boson couplings from its production and decay using the WW channel in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(Springer, 2024) Hayrapetyan, A.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Damanakis, K.
A study of the anomalous couplings of the Higgs boson to vector bosons, including CP-violation effects, has been conducted using its production and decay in the WW channel. This analysis is performed on proton-proton collision data collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC during 2016-2018 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb(-1). The different-flavor dilepton (e mu) final state is analyzed, with dedicated categories targeting gluon fusion, electroweak vector boson fusion, and associated production with a W or Z boson. Kinematic information from associated jets is combined using matrix element techniques to increase the sensitivity to anomalous effects at the production vertex. A simultaneous measurement of four Higgs boson couplings to electroweak vector bosons is performed in the framework of a standard model effective field theory. All measurements are consistent with the expectations for the standard model Higgs boson and constraints are set on the fractional contribution of the anomalous couplings to the Higgs boson production cross section.
Constraints on standard model effective field theory for a Higgs boson produced in association with W or Z bosons in the H → b(b)over-bar decay channel in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(Springer, 2025) Chekhovsky, V.; Hayrapetyan, A.; Makarenko, V.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Benato, L.
A standard model effective field theory (SMEFT) analysis with dimension-six operators probing nonresonant new physics effects is performed in the Higgs-strahlung process, where the Higgs boson is produced in association with a W or Z boson, in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The final states in which the W or Z boson decays leptonically and the Higgs boson decays to a pair of bottom quarks are considered. The analyzed data were collected by the CMS experiment between 2016 and 2018 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb(-1). An approach designed to simultaneously optimize the sensitivity to Wilson coefficients of multiple SMEFT operators is employed. Likelihood scans as functions of the Wilson coefficients that carry SMEFT sensitivity in this final state are performed for different expansions in SMEFT. The results are consistent with the predictions of the standard model.
Constraints on the Higgs boson self-coupling from the combination of single and double Higgs boson production in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(Elsevier, 2025) Hayrapetyan, A.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Damanakis, K.
The Higgs boson (H) trilinear self-coupling, lambda(3), is constrained via its measured properties and limits on the HH pair production using the proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at root s = 13 TeV. The combination of event categories enriched in single-H and HH events is used to measure k(lambda), defined as the value of lambda(3) normalized to its standard model prediction, while simultaneously constraining the Higgs boson couplings to fermions and vector bosons. Values of k(lambda) outside the interval -1.2 < k(lambda) < 7.5 are excluded at 2 sigma confidence level, which is compatible with the expected range of -2.0< k(lambda) < 7.7 under the assumption that all other Higgs boson couplings are equal to their standard model predicted values. Relaxing the assumption on the Higgs couplings to fermions and vector bosons the observed (expected) k(lambda) interval is constrained to be within -1.4 < k(lambda) < 7.8 (-2.3 < k(lambda) < 7.8) at 2 sigma confidence level.
Determination of the strong coupling and its running from measurements of inclusive jet production
(Elsevier, 2025) Chekhovsky, V.; Hayrapetyan, A.; Makarenko, V.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Benato, L.
The value of the strong coupling alpha(S) is determined in a comprehensive analysis at next-to-next-to-leading order accuracy in quantum chromodynamics. The analysis uses double-differential cross section measurements from the CMS Collaboration at the CERN LHC of inclusive jet production in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 2.76, 7, 8, and 13 TeV, combined with inclusive deep-inelastic data from HERA. The value alpha(S)(m(Z)) = 0.1176(-0.0016)(+0.0014) is obtained at the scale of the Z boson mass. By using the measurements in different intervals of jet transverse momentum, the running of alpha(S) is probed for energies between 100 and 1600GeV.
Development of systematic uncertainty-aware neural network trainings for binned-likelihood analyses at the LHC
(Springer, 2025) Chekhovsky, V.; Hayrapetyan, A.; Makarenko, V.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Benato, L.
We propose a neural network training method capable of accounting for the effects of systematic variations of the data model in the training process and describe its extension towards neural network multiclass classification. The procedure is evaluated on the realistic case of the measurement of Higgs boson production via gluon fusion and vector boson fusion in the tau tau decay channel at the CMS experiment. The neural network output functions are used to infer the signal strengths for inclusive production of Higgs bosons as well as for their production via gluon fusion and vector boson fusion. We observe improvements of 12 and 16% in the uncertainty in the signal strengths for gluon and vector-boson fusion, respectively, compared with a conventional neural network training based on cross-entropy.
Development of the CMS detector for the CERN LHC Run 3
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2024) Hayrapetyan, A.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Arnold, B.; Bergauer, H.; Bergauer, T.
Since the initial data taking of the CERN LHC, the CMS experiment has undergone substantial upgrades and improvements. This paper discusses the CMS detector as it is configured for the third data-taking period of the CERN LHC, Run 3, which started in 2022. The entire silicon pixel tracking detector was replaced. A new powering system for the superconducting solenoid was installed. The electronics of the hadron calorimeter was upgraded. All the muon electronic systems were upgraded, and new muon detector stations were added, including a gas electron multiplier detector. The precision proton spectrometer was upgraded. The dedicated luminosity detectors and the beam loss monitor were refurbished. Substantial improvements to the trigger, data acquisition, software, and computing systems were also implemented, including a new hybrid CPU/GPU farm for the high-level trigger.
Elliptic anisotropy measurement of the f0(980) hadron in proton-lead collisions and evidence for its quark-antiquark composition
(Nature Portfolio, 2025) Hayrapetyan, A.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Damanakis, K.
Despite the f(0)(980) hadron having been discovered half a century ago, the question about its quark content has not been settled: it might be an ordinary quark-antiquark (q (q) over bar) meson, a tetraquark (q (q) over barq (q) over bar) exotic state, a kaon-antikaon (K (K) over bar) molecule, or a quark-antiquark-gluon (q (q) over barg) hybrid. This paper reports strong evidence that the f(0)(980) state is an ordinary q (q) over bar meson, inferred from the scaling of elliptic anisotropies (v(2)) with the number of constituent quarks (n(q)), as empirically established using conventional hadrons in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The f(0)(980) state is reconstructed via its dominant decay channel f(0)(980) -> pi(+)pi(-), in proton-lead collisions recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC, and its v(2) is measured as a function of transverse momentum (p(T)). It is found that the n(q) = 2 (q (q) over bar state) hypothesis is favored over n(q) = 4 (q (q) over barq (q) over bar or K (K) over bar states) by 7.7, 6.3, or 3.1 standard deviations in the p(T) < 10, 8, or 6 GeV/c ranges, respectively, and over n(q) = 3 (q<(q)over bar>g hybrid state) by 3.5 standard deviations in the p(T) < 8GeV/c range. This result represents the first determination of the quark content of the f(0)(980) state, made possible by using a novel approach, and paves the way for similar studies of other exotic hadron candidates.
Energy-scaling behavior of intrinsic transverse-momentum parameters in Drell-Yan simulation
(Amer Physical Soc, 2025) Hayrapetyan, A.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Damanakis, K.
An analysis is presented based on models of the intrinsic transverse momentum (intrinsic k(T)) of partons in nucleons by studying the dilepton transverse momentum in Drell-Yan events. Using parameter tuning in event generators and existing data from fixed-target experiments and from hadron colliders, our investigation spans 3 orders of magnitude in center-of-mass energy and 2 orders of magnitude in dilepton invariant mass. The results show an energy-scaling behavior of the intrinsic k(T) parameters, independent of the dilepton invariant mass at a given center-of-mass energy.
Evidence for Similar Collectivity of High Transverse-Momentum Particles in p-Pb and Pb-Pb Collisions
(Amer Physical Soc, 2025) Chekhovsky, V.; Hayrapetyan, A.; Makarenko, V.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Benato, L.
Charged hadron elliptic anisotropies (v(2)) are presented over a wide transverse momentum (p(T)) range for proton-lead (pPb) and lead-lead (PbPb) collisions at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies of 8.16 and 5.02 TeV, respectively. The data were recorded by the CMS experiment and correspond to integrated luminosities of 186 and 0.607 nb(-1) for the pPb and PbPb systems, respectively. A four-particle cumulant analysis is performed using subevents separated in pseudorapidity to effectively suppress noncollective effects. At high pT (p(T) > 8 GeV), significant positive v(2) values that are similar between pPb and PbPb collisions at comparable charged particle multiplicities are observed. This observation suggests a common origin for the multiparticle collectivity for high-p(T) particles in the two systems.
Evidence for tWZ production in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV in multilepton final states
(Elsevier, 2024) Hayrapetyan, A.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Damanakis, K.
The first evidence for the standard model production of a top quark in association with a W boson and a Z boson is reported. The measurement is performed in multilepton final states, where the Z boson is reconstructed via its decays to electron or muon pairs. At least one W boson, associated or from top quark decay, decays leptonically, too. The analysed data were recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in 2016-2018 in proton-proton collisions at root s = 13 TeV, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb(-1). The measured cross section is 354 +/- 54(stat) +/- 95(syst) fb, and corresponds to a statistical significance of 3.4 standard deviations.
Evidence of medium response to hard probes using correlations of Z bosons with hadrons in heavy ion collisions
(Elsevier, 2026) Chekhovsky, V.; Hayrapetyan, A.; Makarenko, V.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Benato, L.
The first measurement of pseudorapidity and azimuthal angle distributions relative to the momentum vector of a Z boson for low transverse momentum (p(T)) charged hadrons in lead-lead (PbPb) collisions is presented. By studying the hadrons produced in an event with a high-p(T) Z boson (40 < p(T) < 350 GeV), the analysis probes how the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) medium created in these collisions affects the parton recoiling opposite to the Z boson. Utilizing PbPb data at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy root s(NN) = 5.02 TeV from 2018 with an integrated luminosity of 1.67 nb(-1) and proton-proton (pp) data at the same energy from 2017 with 301 pb(-1), the distributions are examined in bins of charged-hadron p(T). A significant modification of the distributions for charged hadrons in the range 1 < p(T) < 2 GeV in PbPb collisions is observed when compared to reference measurements from pp collisions. The data provide new information about the correlation between hard and soft particles in heavy ion collisions, which can be used to test predictions of various jet quenching models. When compared with theoretical predictions, the results are consistent with expectations of a hydrodynamic wake created when the QGP is depleted of energy by the parton propagating through it. Therefore, this Letter presents the first evidence of probe-induced energy depletion and the resulting response by the QGP medium.
Extracting the speed of sound in quark-gluon plasma with ultrarelativistic lead-lead collisions at the LHC
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2024) Hayrapetyan, A.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Damanakis, K.
Ultrarelativistic nuclear collisions create a strongly interacting state of hot and dense quark-gluon matter that exhibits a remarkable collective flow behavior with minimal viscous dissipation. To gain deeper insights into its intrinsic nature and fundamental degrees of freedom, we determine the speed of sound in an extended volume of quark-gluon plasma using lead-lead (PbPb) collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 5.02 TeV. The data were recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 0.607 nb(-1). The measurement is performed by studying the multiplicity dependence of the average transverse momentum of charged particles emitted in head-on PbPb collisions. Our findings reveal that the speed of sound in this matter is nearly half the speed of light, with a squared value of 0.241 +/- 0.002 (stat) +/- 0.016 9(syst) in natural units. The effective medium temperature, estimated using the mean transverse momentum, is 219 +/- 8 The measured squared speed of sound at this temperature aligns precisely with predictions from lattice quantum chromodynamic (QCD) calculations. This result provides a stringent constraint on the equation of state of the created medium and direct evidence for a deconfined QCD phase being attained in relativistic nuclear collisions.
First Exclusive Reconstruction of the B*+, B*0, and Bs*0 Mesons and Precise Measurement of Their Masses
(Amer Physical Soc, 2026) Hayrapetyan, A.; Makarenko, V.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Benato, L.; Bergauer, T.
Using proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at root s = 13 TeV in 2016-2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb(-1), the first full reconstruction of the three vector B meson states, B*(+), B-*0, and B-s(*0), is performed. The mass differences between the excited mesons and their corresponding ground states are measured to be m(B*(+)) - m(B+) 45.277 +/- 0.039 +/- 0.027 MeV, m(B*(0))- m(B-0) = 45.471 +/- 0.056 +/- 0.028 MeV, and m(B-s(0)) - m(B-s(0)) = 49.407 +/- 0.132 +/- 0.041 MeV, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. These results improve on the precision of previous measurements by an order of magnitude.
General search for supersymmetric particles in scenarios with compressed mass spectra using proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(Amer Physical Soc, 2025) Chekhovsky, V.; Hayrapetyan, A.; Makarenko, V.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Benato, L.
A general search is presented for supersymmetric particles (sparticles) in scenarios featuring compressed mass spectra using proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC. The analyzed data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb(-1). Awide range of potential sparticle signatures are targeted, including pair production of electroweakinos, sleptons, and top squarks. The search focuses on events with a high transverse momentum system from initial-stateradiation jets recoiling against a potential sparticle system with significant missing transverse momentum. Events are categorized based on their lepton multiplicity, jet multiplicity, number of b-tagged jets, and kinematic variables sensitive to the sparticle masses and mass splittings. The sensitivity extends to higher parent sparticle masses than previously probed at the LHC for production of pairs of electroweakinos, sleptons, and top squarks with mass spectra featuring small mass splittings (compressed mass spectra). The observed results demonstrate agreement with the predictions of the background-only model. Lower mass limits are set at 95% confidence level on production of pairs of electroweakinos, sleptons, and top squarks that extend to 325, 275, and 780 GeV, respectively, for the most favorable compressed mass regime cases.
