The standard model (SM) of particle physics is the mathematical description of the
fundamental constituents and interactions of matter. Its last missing particle, the Higgs …

This paper describes the COMBINE software package used for statistical analyses by the
CMS Collaboration. The package, originally designed to perform searches for a Higgs …

The identification of prompt and isolated muons, as well as muons from heavy-flavour
hadron decays, is an important task. We developed two multivariate techniques to provide …

Measurements of inclusive and normalized differential cross sections of the associated
production of top quark-antiquark and bottom quark-antiquark pairs, tt¯ bb¯ $$\textrm …

A bstract A measurement of novel event shapes quantifying the isotropy of collider events is
performed in 140 fb− 1 of proton-proton collisions with\(\sqrt {s}\)= 13 TeV centre-of-mass …

A bstract We study the LHC phenomenology of an Axion Like Particle (ALP) that couples
only derivatively with the top quark at tree level. We inspect the radiatively induced …

We calculate the four-top-quark operator contributions to Higgs production via gluon fusion
in the Standard Model effective field theory. The four-top operators enter for the first time via …

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 …

A bstract We present the calculation of the contribtuions from the chromomagnetic and four-
top-quark-operators within Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) to Higgs boson …

A bstract Recently the ATLAS collaboration has reported the first results of searches for
heavy scalar resonances decaying into a Z boson and a lighter new scalar resonance …
