Abstract:

We present a search for the production of a heavy gauge boson

\mathrm{W^\prime}

decaying into a top quark and a bottom quark. The dataset used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 12.9 fb

^{-1}

collected by the CMS experiment at

\sqrt{s}=13

TeV during 2016. The final state signature searched for includes a lepton (

\mathrm{e}, \mu

) plus jets and missing transverse energy. We find no evidence of a

\mathrm{W^\prime}

boson and set 95

\%

confidence level (C.L.) upper limits on its production cross-section times branching fraction. For

\mathrm{W^\prime}

bosons with purely right handed couplings, the observed (expected) 95

\%

C.L. lower limit is 2.67 (2.70) TeV. These are currently the most stringent limits in this channel.
