Search for light resonances decaying into pairs of muons as a signal of new physics

Abstract: A search for groups of collimated muons is performed using a data sample collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, at a centre-of-mass energy of 7TeV, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35 pb(-1). The analysis searches for production of new low-mass states decaying into pairs of muons and is designed to achieve high sensitivity to a broad range of models predicting leptonic jet signatures. With no excess observed over the background expectation, upper limits on the production cross section time… Show more

“…The potentially significant bounds come from dedicated searches for lepton-jets, where modified lepton isolation criteria are applied, and low-mass ranges are considered. Searches for lepton-jets have been pursued by both CMS [379] and ATLAS [85,227,289].…”

“…The most relevant search is from the CMS search for light resonances decaying into pairs of muons [379], which sets an upper bound on the cross section for pp → ðϕ → μ þ μ − Þ þ X for new bosons ϕ with masses below 5 GeV, using 35 pb −1 of data collected at the 7 TeV LHC. Selection cuts of jη μμ j < 0.9 and p T;μμ > 80 GeV are applied for the muon pair.…”
