A search for the pair production of heavy vector-like partners $\mathrm {T}$ and $\mathrm {B}$ of the top and bottom quarks has been performed by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC using proton–proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13\,\text {Te}\text {V} $ . The data sample was collected in 2016 and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 $\,\text {fb}^{-1}$ . [...]

A measurement of the top quark–antiquark pair production cross section $\sigma _{\mathrm {t}\overline{\mathrm {t}}} $ in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 $\,\text {Te}\text {V}$ is presented. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of $35.9{\,\text {fb}^{-1}} $ , recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in 2016. [...]

Measurements of differential cross sections for inclusive very forward jet production in proton-lead collisions as a function of jet energy are presented. The data were collected with the CMS experiment at the LHC in the laboratory pseudorapidity range $-$6.6$<\eta<-$5.2. [...]

A measurement of the energy density in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of s√=13 TeV is presented. The data have been recorded with the CMS experiment at the LHC during low luminosity operations in 2015. [...]

A search for a narrow Z$'$ gauge boson with a mass between 5 and 70 GeV resulting from an $L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}$ $U(1)$ local gauge symmetry is reported. Events containing four muons with an invariant mass near the standard model Z boson mass are analyzed, and the selection is further optimized to be sensitive to the events that may contain Z$\to$Z$'\mu\mu\to4\mu$ decays. [...]

The predicted high sensitivity of the nuclear modification factor for K$^−$ in SIDIS due to the QCD based effect of medium-induced flavour conversion in the fragmentation function is studied at HERMES experiment. Unlike π+, π− and K$^+$ nuclear modification factor for K$^−$ is assumed to increase at high value of Bjorken variable $x_B$ and a hadron fraction energy $z$. [...]

Recently, the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) collaboration reported the discovery of a TeV halo around the Geminga pulsar. The TeV emission is believed to originate from the inverse Compton scattering of pulsar-injected electrons/positrons off cosmic microwave background photons [...]

The interactions of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) with background photons in extragalactic space generate high-energy neutrinos and photons. Simulating UHECR propagation requires assumptions about physical quantities such as the spectrum of the extragalactic background light (EBL) and photodisintegration cross sections. [...]

Laser-aligned carbonyl-sulfide molecules were strong-field ionized using mid-infrared light. Investigating the strong-field effects in the molecular frame allowed to add novel facets to the understanding of the intrinsic nature of strong-field physics..
