Searches for W′ bosons decaying to a top quark and a bottom quark in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV
Searches are presented for heavy gauge bosons decaying into a top and a bottom quark in data collected by the CMS experiment at √ s = 13 TeV that correspond to an integrated luminosity of 2.2 and 2.6 fb−1 in the leptonic and hadronic analyses, respectively. Two final states are analyzed, one con...

| Summary: | Searches are presented for heavy gauge bosons decaying into a top and a bottom quark in data collected by the CMS experiment at √
s = 13 TeV that correspond to an
integrated luminosity of 2.2 and 2.6 fb−1
in the leptonic and hadronic analyses, respectively.
Two final states are analyzed, one containing a single electron, or muon, and missing transverse momentum, and the other containing multiple jets and no electrons or muons. No
evidence is found for a right-handed W0
boson (W0
R) and the combined analyses exclude
at 95% confidence level W0
R with masses below 2.4 TeV if MW0
R � MνR
(mass of the
right-handed neutrino), and below 2.6 TeV if MW0
R
< MνR
. The results provide the most
stringent limits for right-handed W0
bosons in the top and bottom quark decay channel. |
