We present a search for a Higgs boson decaying to two W bosons in pp collisions at √ s = 1.96TeV center-of-mass energy. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb −1 collected with the CDF II detector. We find no evidence for production of a Higgs boson with mass between 110 and 200 GeV/c 2 , and determine upper limits on the production cross section. For the mass of 160 GeV/c 2 , where the analysis is most sensitive, the observed (expected) limit is 0.7 pb (0.9 pb) at 95% Bayesian credibility level which is 1.7 (2.2) times the standard model cross section.
The transverse momentum spectra of charged particles have been measured in pp and PbPb collisions at √ s NN = 2.76 TeV by the CMS experiment at the LHC. In the transverse momentum range p T = 5-10 GeV/c, the charged particle yield in the most central PbPb collisions is suppressed by up to a factor of 7 compared to the pp yield scaled by the number of incoherent nucleon-nucleon collisions. At higher p T , this suppression is significantly reduced, approaching roughly a factor of 2 for particles with p T in the range p T = 40-100 GeV/c.
We measure the time dependence of the ratio of decay rates for the rare decay D{0}-->K{+}pi{-} to the Cabibbo-favored decay D{0}-->K{-}pi;{+}. A signal of 12.7x10;{3} D{0}-->K{+}pi{-} decays was obtained using the Collider Detector at Fermilab II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron with an integrated luminosity of 1.5 fb;{-1}. We measure the D0-D[over ]{0} mixing parameters (R_{D},y{'},x{'2}), and find that the data are inconsistent with the no-mixing hypothesis with a probability equivalent to 3.8 Gaussian standard deviations.
Searches for the direct electroweak production of supersymmetric charginos, neutralinos, and sleptons in a variety of signatures with leptons and , , and Higgs bosons are presented. Results are based on a sample of proton-proton collision data collected at center-of-mass energy with the CMS detector in 2012, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.5 . The observed event rates are in agreement with expectations from the standard model. These results probe charginos and neutralinos with masses up to 720 , and sleptons up to 260 , depending on the model details.
