Powerful: LHC in run 2 is a dijet resonance factory at a new energy scale

Broad: search for many sources of new physics in a single simple search


String resonances from string theory
Excited quarks from theories of quark compositeness
W’, Z’ and scalar diquarks from grand unified theory
Gravitons from the Randall-Sundrum model of extra dimensions
Axigluons, Colorons and Color Octet Scalars from other new models
Model Independent: Publish cross section limits that can constrain any
present or future model of narrow qq, qg, or gg resonances.

Publication History of Search at CMS

This exciting analysis has been published frequently by CMS,
often very early in the run, and the papers are highly cited

Early publications at new energies get more citations.

Expectations @ 13 TeV

With 1 fb-1 expected from the first 3 week run in May or June
2015 the mass limit on q* would be 4.6 TeV


With 100 pb-1, ~2 days data, we reach current CMS limit of 3.5 TeV !
Approve analysis in summer 2015 !

Example of analysis from draft paper

Search of spectrum and limits on narrow resonances


Background modeled with same parameterization in all five papers.
Signals modeled with q* (qg) and RSG samples (qq and gg).

General Issues for Dijet HPA

Dijet resonance search is sensitive to new physics right away


The analysis needs to be ready to run on first data samples


Within days of running at 13 TeV we are exploring new territory !
Weekly check of dijet mass plot, background fit, and (data – fit)/error
Need to be organized and keep the HPA analysis simple

Following as much as possible the understood 8 TeV analysis steps


See presentation by Francesco Santanastasio with assigned tasks
Challenge may be understanding jet object and trigger rapidly

Close coordination with JetMET in understanding JEC and jet object


See presentations to follow by Mikko Voutilainen and Niki Saoulidou
Understand the trigger efficiency turn-on for trigger (HT, PFHT, …)

See presentation by Maxime Gouzevitch

Related Non-HPA Analyses

These benefit from understood and approved HPA dijet resonance search

Reuse the baseline analysis technique and adds a new feature for a little more
sensitivity or a broader interpretation of the data.

Tagged Dijet Resonance Searches
 b, W / Z, H and q/g jet tagging (see presentation by Sertac Ozturk)

Additional Categories of Limits


Spin sensitive searches


Simultaneous searches in dijet mass and angle (bins of Dh or cos q*)
Extending the search to lower mass resonances


Wide dijet resonance shapes and Quantum black hole shapes
Using data scouting datasets or pre-scaled triggers at lower dijet mass
All interesting, but none are needed for the first HPA result.

Recommend limiting the scope to keep the HPA simple and fast

Conclusions

We plan to search for narrow dijet resonances in run 2.

Analysis is mature, with five publications expected from run 1

We have assembled a team and begun to assign tasks


We could discover new physics with 1 fb-1 of run 2 data.


An experienced team including multiple new Ph.D students
We are as sensitive as run 1 with about 100 pb-1 of run 2 data
We plan for an approved result for summer 2015 conferences
