11:00 - 12:00 Journal Club: Experiment & Phenomenology – meeting Search for a high-mass dimuon resonance produced in association with b quark jets at ?s= 13 TeV School PARTICLES AND ACCELERATORS Abstract: A search for high-mass dimuon resonance production in association with one or more b quark jets is presented. The study uses proton-proton collision data collected with the CMS detector at the LHC corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb?1 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. Model-independent limits are derived on the number of signal events with exactly one or more than one b quark jet. Results are also interpreted in a lepton-flavor-universal model with Z? boson couplings to a bb quark pair (gb ), an sb quark pair (gb ?bs ), and any same-flavor charged lepton (g? ) or neutrino pair (g? ), with | g? | = | ... |
