Abstract:
A search for a heavy resonance decaying to , with the Z boson further decaying to pairs of electrons or muons is presented. The search makes use of 13 TeV proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of . The analysis extracts the background directly from data, through an unbinned likelihood fit. No signifcant excess over the background-only hypothesis is observed, therefore limits at confidence level are set on the production cross section of particles with a mass between and , with two different assumptions on the resonance width.Note:
